How to Create a Framed Drawing in 5 Minutes
Introduction
Hello, friends! Today, I’ll show you how to easily create a unique framed drawing that will decorate any space in your home. This is a fun and creative project that is suitable for both beginners and those advanced in “Do-It-Yourself” projects.
Necessary Materials
To create this interesting framed drawing, you’ll need the following materials:
- Cardboard frame
- Template of your choice
- Set of gel pens
- Double-sided adhesive tape
Steps for Creating a Framed Drawing
1. Preparation
Start by choosing a cardboard frame. Prepare the drawing template you’ll use. You can choose a template that matches your style and mood.
2. Coloring the Template
Use gel pens to color selected parts of the template. You can use different colors for more variety and effect. Focus on the main elements, but leave some parts uncolored to add contrast.
3. Adding Highlights and Shadows
Once you’ve colored the main elements, add highlights and shadows to give the drawing depth and realism. This can easily be done with gel pens by carefully applying lighter or darker shades.
4. Placing the Template in the Frame
Once satisfied with the coloring, center the drawing within the frame’s inner part. For better protection, place clear film over it. This will protect your artwork and give it a finished look.
Attach the template and film to the frame using double-sided adhesive tape or glue. Ensure everything is well aligned and secured to avoid distortions.
5. Decorating the Frame (Optional)
If desired, you can add additional decorative elements to the frame itself. Here are some ideas for personalization:
- Ornaments with glitter gel pens: Use glitter gel pens to add light ornaments like swirls, dots, or other fine details around the frame edges. This will give your frame more sparkle and interest.
- Appliqué with decorative stickers: Stick small stickers, like stars, hearts, or flowers, to the frame’s corners. Choose stickers that complement the drawing and frame colors.
- Adding 3D elements: Attach small 3D elements, such as beads, buttons, or mini flowers to the frame using universal glue. This will create an interesting embossed effect.
- Personalizing with text: Write a short message, quote, or the name of the person the picture is for. This can be done with gel pens or decorative letters.
These additional ideas will help make your frame even more unique and special, adding a personal touch and creativity to your project.
