Instructions

Llama Dish

1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 Bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.

2. Use the Soft Fan to apply on two thinned coats of SC-86 Old Lace to the llama's body. Sponge SC-2 Melon-Choly to the cheeks and brush into the ears. Float to shade SC-48 Camel Back in shadows. Thin Camel Back and apply to the hair.

3. Tape off a triangle shape on the tray’s blanket. Use a palette knife to mix SC-74 Hot Tamale with AC-310 Silkscreen Medium to the consistency of peanut butter. Use the stocking screen from DSS-0106 Winter/Holiday. With the shiny side down, rub the thickened Hot Tamale over the screen to fill in the tree using the snowflake and surrounding detail. 

4. Use the Script Liner to apply one coat of thinned SC-93 Honeydew List over the remainder of the blanke.

5. Use the Script Liner to apply three coats of SC-74 Hot Tamale to the boots. Apply two coats of SG-302 Snowfall to the top of the boots to create a fur trim.

6. Re-tape around the tree edges. Use SG-403 Red to dot the background around the snowflake. This will deepen the color of the Hot Tamale screen and make the snowflake stand out.

7. For the trim stripes on the sides of the blanket: tape to create straight, crisp lines. Dot SG-403 Red for the red stripe, SG-409 Bright Green and SG-410 Bright Blue for the remainder of the stripes.

8. Use the Designer Liner colors to decorate the fringe and the tassels.

9. Use SG-410 Bright Blue with a brush for the eyes. Use SG-401 Black with a brush for the pupils and to outline the eyes. 

10. Use the Soft Fan to apply two coats of NT-BR Clear One Brushing Glaze, avoiding the Snowfall.

11. Fire to cone 05/06.

5. Dot the edges of the blanket with SG-403 Red, SG-409 Bright Green and SG-410 Bright Blue. Use the Bright Blue to dot into the blanket behind the banners in a loose pattern.
