Hot Tip Tuesday


To achieve a glow or shine on a coloured project, simply select a medium from another colouring family and add a blended ring of colour around the item that's glowing. For example, I've coloured my little reindeer with alcohol markers, which are from the oil/solvent/alcohol family. To add a glow around the reindeer's nose, I blended some pencil, which is a different family, over the top of the marker. Being from two different families means the pencils and markers won't react with each other so there's no worry about smudging or mottling.

  1. Great tip, Beccy...much more effective than using my alcohol markers for e.g.
    Christmas tree lights.
