Do this softly by smudging with a bit of soft graphite on your finger or a tortillon. |
Because the tortillon has a pointy tip it is great to work with. |
As you use your tortillon more and more, it'll get dirty. |
Put some white spirit on the tip of the tortillon and rub out the pencil lines towards the middle of the image. |
Push a slim knitting needle or a fat wire into the open part of the tortillon so it takes the shape of a pencil. |
With these nostalgic Christmas motifs you can make great cards. If you then also use the ultra fine glitter or watercolour pencils, a tortillon and odourless white spirit, you can make the images look even better. |
