Apply a thin coat of the bubble paint medium to the base glass. Use your paint sifter to sift the powdered paint over the entire medium, first the Blue Green and then a fine layer of white (or mixed the two and then apply).  Allow the medium to dry enough to position the top glass (decal side up) without sliding.  Make sure the two piece of glass are aligned.

Let all the bubble paint medium to dry completely.
