Step-by-step

Step 1
In our photo, you can see the Colour Happy Big Box and its comprehensive contents. We’re confident that this box offers something for every craft enthusiast and every taste.

Step 2
Think about how you want your page spread to look and sketch it out in pencil first. All ideas can be illustrated with simple images, e.g. a phone handset to remind you to ring someone more often. Alternatively, to symbolise healthier eating you could draw a vegetable or a saucepan. Look on our website under “Templates - sketchnotes” and you’ll find an array of possible templates.

Step 3
Customise your journal with borders, decorative details and little pictures. Using the edding 1800 profipen, go over the pictures and emphasise individual lines.

Step 4
Colour in the little pictures using the edding 1340 brush pen or other edding fibre pen. Gel rollers are great for adding colourful touches. Anything that’s really important should be written in bold, underlined or coloured in to make it stand out. This gives you a better overview at a glance.
