Begin by mixing the paints (see Mixing Chart on page 20). Basecoat the entire rose, being careful not to get any paint inside the carved lines. Next, apply the shade mixture to the base of each petal, thinning it out toward the top. Cover the innermost petals entirely as this should be the darkest area of the rose. Now, floatshade the middle and outer petals with the highlight 1 November, 1999 mixture. Start just above the base and work your way out. The highlight 2 mixture should only be applied to the outermost petals, creating a gradual lightening from the heart of the rose outward. Drybrush the leaves with the leaf mixture for just a hint of color. Allow to dry overnight. Once dry, brush on three coats of the Delta clear gloss glaze, allowing to dry at least one hour between coats. Be sure to cover the entire design, including the white carved lines. This will seal the paint and the carving. Note: allow painted pieces to dry for at least 10 days before exposing to any moisture. Adhere- the tiles When adhering the tiles to the tray, begin with the corners, then move on to the rest of the tiles. This will ensure that no space is left between the outer edge of the tiles and the sides of the tray. Apply the adhesive to the back of a corner tile.
