Journal with feelgood fruity design

Kick-start spring with an extra helping of vitamins

There’s much to be said for the age-old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”. Apples, just like many other fruits and berries, are packed full of vitamins. To help you remember to get your daily dose of vitamins, we’ve created this simple, bright and cheery design for your journal. Created using edding’s fantastic selection of 1200 colour pens, the vibrant apple, strawberries and other fruits look absolutely delicious – almost good enough to eat!

Step-by-step

Step 1

For this journal idea, you’ll need some edding 1200 colour pens in your favourite colours, plus a black edding 55 fineliner. We’ve also created a template ready for you to download and print.

Step 2

If the pages of your journal are fairly thin, simply place the template under the relevant page and trace the design into your journal using a pencil. Next, use your fineliner to add in the calendar dates and finer text details.

Step 3

Next, use your edding 1200 colour pens to draw around the outline of the word HAPPY and colour it in. To make things even brighter, pick a different colour for each letter.

Step 4

Now it’s time to add in the fruit.
Remember: always go in the same direction when colouring in and avoid crossing over at different angles. This will give you a beautifully even block of colour.

Step 5

Thanks to the bright, fresh colours of edding colour pens, the apple, lemon and cherries will look good enough to eat! You might also want to use another vibrant colour to highlight certain days on the calendar when you want to make sure you’re getting that extra helping of vitamins.
