Have you tried Close To My Heart's new Shin Han Touch Twin markers? You are going to get tons of great ideas along this blog hop! (If you're already hopping, welcome from
Paige's blog. If you're just getting started, you'll leave here to go to
Sarita's blog next.
Since I do NOT like to color, my favorite marker technique is to color embellishments like our
silver shimmer trim with the Shin Han markers. You can turn the silver trim into almost any color you like! Just use the broad tip of the marker to color the shimmer trim and then let it dry for a bit.
Here are a few other projects where I've colored the silver trim:
I didn't have any pink shimmer trim for this
In the Pink journal entry, so I made my own.
The gold and purple are actual shimmer trim colors that we have, but the "Pacifica" uses our Shin Han markers! (You can find the complete details
HERE if you're interested.)
How about this pretty "Thistle" trim? The Peony Purple Shin Han is a great match. (For more details, click
HERE.)
See what I mean?
