  4. Colour the playsuit with Grass Green, leave the mixing chamber on the brush nib for around 10 seconds and then colour from the centre towards the edge of the clothes.  This will give the baby a rounded appearance. (goes with step 4 part 2 photo) Colour the Pom Poms and stars with Warm Sunset, by making one side of the pom pom lighter than the other you give the impression of shape and depth.
