2. Starting on the inside and working your way to the outside, cut each area out between the lines.
3. Once all of the spaces are cut out, your picture looks like this.
4. Remove the paper clips and separate both paper layers. One is pattern side and the other being the second black sheet.
5. On the pattern side, start by adding the first color over an empty space.
