1. To create the skirt: remove backer from silk screen stencil and position on shirt. Squeeze a thick line of Grape Juice paint across top of stencil (above design). Make sure to leave enough room on either side so that paint does not spill over to garment or tape off edges with masking tape.

2. Holding squeegee applicator at a 45 degree angle using even pressure, pull a thin coat of paint evenly across stencil design in a single downward motion. Continue until design is completely covered in a thin coat of paint.

3. Set squeegee aside and pull screen stencil up carefully to reveal your design.

4. Follow heat setting instructions on Silk Screen Stencil packaging.

5. To create the tank: Using the paintbrush, apply Bippity Boppity Blue paint over the “Cheer” screen element, wash out brush and blot excess moisture on paper towel. Using the paintbrush, apply Grape Juice paint over other elements, wash out brush and blot excess moisture on paper towel.

6. Follow heat setting instructions on Silk Screen Stencil packaging.
