INSTRUCTIONS
1. Lightly wipe ware with a damp sponge to prepare surface for painting.
2. Mix two parts Naples Yellow to one part Cadmium Red to create a base coat for the frame.
3. Mix one part Naples Yellow to two parts Cadium Red. Place template onto frame and dab gently with a paint dotter.
4. Lightly dust glitter onto frame and let dry.
5. While frame is drying, you can create the rosettes. Cut a 12" x 1" strip of fabric and tie the end in a knot. Twist fabric in a circular motion and secure every couple of twists with a dot of hot glue. Continue this process until done.
6. Create a smaller rosette with a 8 by 1 inch strip of fabric. Repeat step 5.
7. Sketch a large banner with a Sharpie on the top right corner of the frame. Fill in with Naples Yellow.
8. Using the Sharpie, draw a 2.5" banner below the photo opening and fill in with Naples Yellow.
9. Outline both banners and add text with Mars Black and a Detail Liner. On the top banner add the anniversary of the two lovebirds, or any other sweet message you would like. Fill in the second banner with You + Me or the couples' name.
10. Using a paint dotter, paint the inside and outside of edges of the frame in Mars Black.
11. Hot Glue the rosettes down onto the bottom left corner of the frame.
