Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Place the pattern on top of the AC-230 Clay Carbon Paper onto the bisque. Trace around the pattern with a pen or pencil.
  3. Place SL-444 Argyle Stencil on the clipboard. Using the Foam roller, gently apply SC-30 Blue Dawn over the stencil. Continue to add on to the rolled stencil to cover the clipboard with the design. Tip: Hold the tip of the roller to apply the color to keep the glaze from bleeding under the stencil.
  4. Use the CB-106 #6 Script Liner to apply 2-3 coats of SC-16 Cotton Tail onto the snow area of the snowman. Use the same brush to apply three coats of SC-74 Hot Tamale to the scarf and hatband. Apply two coats of SC-50 Orange Ya Happy to the nose and three coats of SC-15 Tuxedo to the hat.  Apply coat of SC-34 Down to Earth to the arm.  Use CB-106 Script Liner or CB-110 Liner to apply color.
  5. Shade the left side of the snow on the snowman with SC-60 Silver Lining, dot the scarf with SC-16 Cotton Tail, by using the end of a brush handle, dot eyes and buttons with the end of the brush handle.  Use the CB-110 #10/0 Liner with SC-15 Tuxedo to outline the design.
  6. Use the Script Liner to apply SC-15 to the edges of the clipboard.
  7. Dip in NT-CLR.
  8. Stilt and fire to cone 05/06.
  9. After the Clipboard has cooled, use epoxy to glue on the clip following the directions on the package or refer to ‘Clipboard – Attaching the clip’ video on the Mayco YouTube channelhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-E3Qb6SQrWE.
