Hello friends, it’s Smitha! I’m adding a gratitude list and illustration to my dot journal and am taking you along and showing you how!
Materials:
- Dual Brush Pen – (colors 947, 158, 985 and 899)
- Dot journal or sketchbook
Step 1:
Using the brush tip of Dual Brush Pen 985, draw three segments of what will be our pumpkin.
Step 2:
Using the brush tip of Dual Brush Pen 947, add in the rest of the segments of the pumpkin. This might seem to be a darker color for your pumpkin, but I love the contrast it creates. Feel free to substitute a paler orange or a brown shade instead.
Step 3:
Using Dual Brush Pens 899 and 158, add the stalk and vine of the pumpkin.
Step 4:
Using the brush tip of Dual Brush Pen 899, letter the words “give thanks” or anything else you might want to add.
Step 5:
On the facing page, add tiny pumpkins as a border and the title “I’m Thankful For.” This is where I will jot down my thankful list this year.
That’s it! I love the autumn vibe of this spread.
I hope you enjoyed this tutorial today! Happy crafting!
