Instructions

1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
2. On a palette with a palette knife, thicken SC-15 Tuxedo with AC-310 Silkscreen Medium to the consistency of peanut butter.
3. Screen the cat on paper for a "mask", then screen the cat onto the tile. With the shiny side of the screen down, rub the thickened Tuxedo mixture over the screen with your finger.
4. Cut out the shape of the cat from the paper. Place the paper cat over the screened cat on the tile.
5. Then place the SL-431 Bloom on the tile, overlapping the paper cat.
6. Using the 2" foam roller, roll SC-89 Cutie Pie Coral over the stencil. Lightly roll with minimum pressure to avoid bleeding color under the stencil. Repeat at the top of the tile.
7. Realign the stencil over the first flower, move slightly to the right so some of the Cutie Pie Coral is visible, then roll with SC-15 Tuxedo, lightly.
8. Remove paper mask.
9. Using CB-604 #4 Soft Fan, brush 2 coats of FN-209 Floral Pink over the tile, avoiding the cat.
10. Using CB-604 #4 Soft Fan, brush 2 coats of S-2101 Clear over the tile.
11. Fire to cone 05/06.
