Randomly place the Andy Skinner Route 66 Stencil throughout the sunset-painted cardstock, dabbing on paint colors of your choice using a cosmetic sponge.

Use a flat brush to paint the road in Carbon Black and a #8 round brush to paint the stripes in Hansa Yellow Medium. Use a flat brush to adhere the car in place with Matte Medium.
