Quick and Easy Coloring with Alcohol Markers
Happy Sunday Stampers ~ I have a Quick and Easy Coloring with Alcohol Markers card for you today.
You don’t have to be an expert to color with alcohol markers. Keeping it simple is the key when you are starting out. Color the image with one color then add highlights with the other color and then blend them together with the first color.
When you are starting out think about using a simple image as they will be easier to do. Many of the line images have shading built in which helps with determining where to add the darker color you use to add depth. You would again follow the same procedure of coloring the image first with the light color. Then where the shading lines are you would add the darker color. Finally color the whole image again with the lighter color to blend them together.
You can be successful with alcohol markers by keeping it simple. Here is the video for the Quick and Easy Coloring with Alcohol Markers so you can see how to use a simple way to blend the colors.
