From Terry -Use heat tool to heat embossing powder until melted. Cut out embossed design leaving 1/16 around edge of design. Wet paint brush with water and dip into glue, brush onto egg where design will be placed.Put design onto egg, embossed side up. Brush glue over the design from the center out, brush gently until flat on a separate palette. Mix water color paint and 1 drop of High gloss varnish (use lightest color first). Paint onto the egg in desired areas. Repeat above for each additional color. Dip into can of satin varnish and apply 2 coats of varnish, letting dry between each coat. Dip into can of high gloss varnish, using 5 to 15 coats of varnish letting dry completely between each coat. You do not have to worry about contaminating the can of varnish, because it seals it when you add varnish to the water color paint when you apply it to the egg. by Terry |
