Step-by-step

Step 1
To design the front cover, you'll need a selection of edding 1200 colour pens and the edding 1800 profipen in your chosen colours. The fibre pens are also available in high-quality metal boxes containing 10 or 20 pens. First, download and print out the image of the camper van.

Step 2
The fine writing tip of the edding 1800 is ideal for adding small details and finer touches.

Step 3
Next, use the fibre pens to colour in the van however you wish. In our example, we drew patterns of delicate lines, but you can colour in the whole area instead – it's entirely up to you.

Step 4
Once you've finished designing, cut out the motif and glue it onto your journal or travel diary. And there you have it – your front cover is finished!
