  • Cover the cardboard drawing with aluminum foil.
  • Press the aluminum foil over the raised design carefully.

  • Optional: use rubbing alcohol on a Q-tip to blend marker colors together.

Notes

  • Be careful not to push too hard with the markers or your fingers. You do not want the tin foil to rip.
  • You can experiment with rubbing alcohol on your permanent markers for an excellent blending effect.
  • Be careful not to smudge the wet marker while you are coloring.
  • If you are using rubbing alcohol, use a little on a Q-tip to blend colors. Don't rub too hard or you will remove the color.
