We love how Kelly mixed up her pen details
by drawing some of her faux-stitches with
a white gel pen.
The easiest way to add the stitched look to a project is with a
pen. With rows of small dashes you can frame in photos, underline
journaling, accent embellishments and so much more.
faux-
stitching
Kelly faux-stitched concentric circles and created this eye-catching
background pattern on her page. See below for a quick how-to and
add this look to your next page.
faux ¯ stitched circles:
here’s how
Punch out three circles in descending size. Using temporary adhesive, glue the
largest circle to your project. Trace around the circle with a black pen using small
dashes. Repeat with the medium and small circles.
Kelly says, “Try a white gel pen on dark paper for a unique look. My favourite is a
Uni-ball Signo. It has the most opaque white ink and draws so smoothly
!
