Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Place AC-230 Clay Carbon Paper over the front of the mug. Trace the pattern using the pencil. There is a pattern for “MOM” and “DAD”
  3. Use the pencil to sketch squiggly lines over the entire mug. Make sure you have lines going through your lettering
  4. * NOTE: For Steps 4 & 5, you can also use a different color palette. Just select 3 shades of the same color.
  5. “MOM” pattern: Using the Script Liner with SC-1 Pink-A-Boo, SC-70 Pink-A-Dot and SC-95 Pinkie Swear, apply 2 coats to each section inside the lettering. Make sure not to use the same color for sections that are right next to each other.
  6. “DAD” pattern: Using the Script Liner with SC-11 Blue Yonder, SC-45 My Blue Heaven and SC-76 Cara-Bein Blue, apply 2 coats to each section inside the lettering. Make sure not to use the same color for sections that are right next to each other.
  7. Using the Detail Liner with SC-15 Tuxedo, outline the lettering and the lines.
