For today, I wanted to share something a little different. This is a coloring page I designed using the Americana stencil called Oopsy Daisy. The page is smaller than the actual 12 by 12 stencil. I outlined the flowers using a Sharpie fine tip black marker. I used an extra fine tip Sharpie to fill in the the positive space with coloring guidelines. I call them coloring guidelines because the same motif is used for all of the petals of the same flower. If you look at the yellow flower on the center right of the coloring page, you will see that all of the coloring lines are vertical in orientation. With busy designs, this helps a person to identify which element goes with each other.
The page was filled with color using TomBow Dual Tip Markers. This page will be the basis of a separate project. I outlined the page on one day and then let it dry completely overnight. I added color on the second day.
I would have preferred to use my Copic markers but the alcohol in the markers makes the Sharpie outlines feather.

I like the designs you put in the petals! Do you have a Copic multiliner? You could use that when you want to use your Copics instead of the Sharpie.
I knew about the multiliners for the details but I am looking for something thicker for the outlines
