Step-by-step

Step 1

You’ll need edding Funtastics fibre pens with a thick or a thin nib. There are lots of different animal motifs to choose from. Simply download and print out the template.

Step 2

Gradually trace the outline of the animals and colour in using the Funtastics pens. Little by little, a lion, monkey, tiger or giraffe will emerge from a round shape. Now’s the time to use the edding 15 Funtastics fibre pens for children.

Step 3

Alternatively, you can also colour in the actual template and add additional decorative features to it. The colour pens with the thin nib are particularly good for finer details, as shown here with the giraffe’s horns.

Step 4

Once you’ve coloured in the templates, you can also use them as bunting, gift tags or as decorations for presents or snack bags. Simply cut out the motifs and stick them onto the required surface.
