Here's How
Simply trace, paint, and hang!

• Enlarge the dog stencils to fit your board. Cut out the silhouette shapes.
• Paint your board a desired background colour using the roller kit.
• Using a pencil, trace the two dogs in the background, then trace the three dogs in the foreground. The foreground dogs will overlap the background dogs.
• Remove the parts of the background dogs that overlap with a damp cloth. This will make it less confusing to paint.
• Using craft paint brushes, paint the foreground dogs first. Let dry.
• Paint the background dogs. Let dry.
• Paint the noses. Note: they are positioned towards the bottom of the ears.
• Paint the collars.
• Frame and hang to enjoy!
