Step-By-Step Instructions:

1. Clean glass surface thoroughly before stamping.
2. Apply an even amount of paint on raised stamp using a flat-edge paintbrush or applicator sponge. Multiple colors maybe applied to different sections of the stamp. Try using two more shades of a color for a dimensional look.
3. Apply stamp to area using pressure with finger tips, for smooth and curved surfaces. Make sure you press firmly over entire stamp.
4. Lift stamp gently off surface.
5. When finished or when changing colors, clean your stamp by blotting the remaining paint on a folded, damp paper towel, making sure all paint is cleaned from stamp. Clean paintbrush with water immediately after using.

This is a very nice project exspecially when there all lite up in the night time, I fine that they give a romantic feeling.
