Well...Silky Crayons on order for myself now lol. That northern lights effect is awesome. On your borders 1 cm in, you might enjoy using artist’s tape. It comes in different widths and you just put it down, paint, then peel it back up and you have a nice clean edge. It makes it a lot easier when painting too because you don’t have to be careful. I haven’t tried it in coloring books yet, but use it in my watercolor sketchbooks. One other gadget you might like: a “jewel picker.” Better than tweezers for your stars and other sparkly doodads :-)

Wow! You said you didn't want to use anything fancy when you started. Now it all goes on and so beautifully. Blown away by the Northern Lights. That works so brilliantly and then you topped it off with stickels and it got even better. The page is amazing. So different. I actually have a download copy of this page on the go at the moment. But I'm just colouring it. I'm saving my book for my birthday. But even so, I can't really blame my lack of imagination on the download copy. It's a lovely picture though, I'm enjoying it. Using the new Brutfuner square pencils which seem to like any paper! Whilst watching you do this I was getting more adventurous with a page in A Million Unicorns. Inspired by you. It has a black background anyway but I've added iridescent paint, delicate clear glitter paint, gold Signo glitter gel pen and the silver version and a bronze metallic pen. I've used K-i-N. magic pencils on the castle and thought I'd fish the Coloursoft pencils out and air them. Yuck. They do NOT like this paper. I'll finish this bit and go back to the Brutfuner because I know they are OK with it. Yes, it's nippy today. Hubby came and showed me a photo taken this morning in the street in Littleborough where he grew up. Lovely and sunny, but all covered in snow. We've had one short flurry. But I will need to light the fire this evening. Looking forward to seeing what you do with the rest of the image.

Thanks so much for taking the time to comment. In the second part to this video I hope to use a few different brands of pencils to see how they ‘take’ to the paper, so should be interesting! Your picture in a million unicorns sounds delightful. I have the K-I-N magic pencils, I need to use them as they have been quite unloved and not had hardly any use. Its still quite cold here, had to clean off frost from the car windscreen going to work these past 2 days during early mornings and forgot it is meant to be spring! Hope it warms up soon. Take care and happy colouring!
