  2. Using the pattern provided, transfer "Merry Christmas" to door.  Resize if needed in order to fit door.   Refer to photo for placement.
  3. Pour some Rich Black to a plate.  Dip the flat side of layering block in to paint and then remove any excess onto a paper towel.  Lightly glide the block along the door front and the edges of the door to achieve distressed look.  Don't be too heavy handed.  It only takes a little to get the effect.
