Step-by-step
Step 1
To design your memo notes, you'll need the following pens from the Colour Happy Big Box, in your choice of colours: edding 1340 brush pens, edding 1300 colour pens and an edding 1800 precision fineliner.
Step 2
Think about how you want your page layout to look, then sketch it out in pencil. Features such as bows, symbols, borders and headings can provide variety and result in a decorative overall appearance. The borders don't always have to be precisely drawn, but you can use a ruler if you prefer.
Step 3
Once you have completed the layout, use fibre pens to colour in the various elements in whatever way you wish. The soft brush tip of the edding 1340 is great for adding really beautiful highlights.
Step 4
The edding 1800 has a very fine nib for drawing fine, precise lines. This allows you to accentuate your notes with extra doodles and fine borders.
