Step-by-step

Step 1

You can see the materials you need at a glance in the photo above. Think about how big you want your posters to be and cut your cardboard to size accordingly. To draw the peace symbol, you will need a round piece of cardboard. Use a compass or suitably sized plate to help you. If you want your posters to be really noticeable, edding permanent markers are the perfect choice. Select the colours and stroke widths you like best.

Step 2

To draw the peace symbol, take the edding 500 (chisel tip) and first draw a large circle before dividing the circle into three sections.

Step 3

By using the thin end of the chisel tip of the edding 500, you’ll be able to create really fine lines (as you can see here in this photo).

Step 4

Your poster won’t be complete without a few flowers for decoration. This is where the edding 3000 comes in handy.

Step 5

The square poster, for example, can be designed using broad strokes to create striking lettering. The edding 500 is perfect for this. To help you, we’ve got another template for you to download.
