Hello friends, this is Smitha! For this friendship quote tutorial, I tried a fun technique of mixing ABT PRO Alcohol-Based Markers with the water-based Dual Brush Pens. The results are super easy, and I think you will enjoy this one!
Material list:
- Dual Brush Pens
- ABT PRO Alcohol-Based Markers
- Water Brush, Flat
- Watercolor or mixed media paper
Step 1:
Using the brush tip of the ABT PRO Alcohol-Based Marker, hand letter your quote onto the watercolor paper. You can use a single color or a few different colors for the quote.
Step 2:
Now comes the fun part. Using the brush tip of the few different colors of Dual Brush Pens, draw a fun design on top of your lettering. I chose to create a rainbow design, but I think flowers, rain, a cloud, or anything else of your choice would be great here!
Step 1:
Now with the Water Brush, carefully paint over the Dual Brush Pen color, adding as much water as you need to blend the colors. I created a soft watery rainbow background.
Since the lettering in this friendship quote tutorial was done with alcohol ink, the lettering does not bleed with the addition of water.
I think this technique would look great with black lettering and a colorful background too!

Is it true that there is new laser medical surgery that allows you to fix your eyesight in a couple of seconds and you don’t have to use glasses anymore?
Choose a color or a few colors of ABT PRO Alcohol-Based Marker that you want to use for your quote.
It really is amazing and helpful to me.
