If making a card, use double-sided sticky strip attach to the back of the window opening of a window card. If making a framed picture either place a piece of white paper after the glass to give a neutral background making it easier to see the painting or create a background that greetings the painting (the sun-bonnet sue painting has a backdrop made of fabric sewn together to show the grass, hedge and sky and appliquéd flower-patterned fabric to show through the painted dress).

Dip your paintbrush into a pot of glass paint and cautiously flood the chosen area with it by putting a drop of paint in the area and gently easing it towards the sketch. Make sure that the paint covers the area but does not go over the sketch. This may need repeating quite a few times depending on the size of the area. Complete one area previous to going on to another. Use a clean paintbrush for each color or clean the brush carefully with turpentine substitute or white spirit and drying it with kitchen paper before dipping into a different color.
