Foundations Matte with Stroke & Coat Pumpkins Tile

Designer: Elizabeth Carey

Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque.
  2. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  3. Using the Soft Fan with FN-304 Black Velvet, apply 3 coats to the tile. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  4. After glaze is dry to the touch, place the pattern over the tile and trace with the pencil. Press down hard enough to see a faint line, but not hard enough to see the bisque under the glaze.
  5. Using the Detail Liner with AC-302 Wax Resist, outline the pattern on the front of the tile.
  6. Using the Script Liner with SP-275 Speckled Orange-A-Peel, apply 3 coats to the pumpkin on the left. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  7. Using the Script Liner with SC-24 Dandelion, apply 3 coats to the gourd on the right. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  8. Using the Script Liner with SC-27 Sour Apple, apply 3 coats to the leaf. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  9. Using the Script Liner with SC-25 Crackerjack Brown, apply 3 coats to the stems. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  10. Allow to dry.
  11. Fire to cone 06.
