It is, of course, particularly ideal for Valentine’s Day, but this unique work of art also serves as a veritable eye-catcher at any time of year. You’ll find a fantastic choice of colours and pens in the edding Colour Happy Big Box: 69 co-ordinated pens - from brush pens and fineliners to colour pens and pastel pens.

Step-by-step

Step 1

You can see the Colour Happy Big Box with its wide variety of contents in our photo. We’re confident that there’s something in this box for every creative fan and to suit all tastes. Download the template and print it out in your desired format.

Step 2

For this picture, we’ve primarily used edding 1340 brush pens, edding 1300 colour pens and the edding 1500 pastel pen.

Step 3

Colour in the motif in whichever way you want, letting your imagination run wild. We’ve chosen red, orange and pink shades in all possible hues. If you go over the coloured sections with the edding 1500 pastel pen, you’ll create beautiful pastel shading, as the stripes on the red heart demonstrate here.

Step 4

You can also create stunning colour gradients using the Colour Mixer from the pen box. To do so, clip two edding 1340 brush pens into the Colour Mixer so that the two nibs are touching. Hold the pens upright and after just a few seconds the lower pen will take on the colour of the upper pen. You can then use the newly mixed colour on paper.
