Cute and simple handbook tutorial

1. Write the date and draw a border around the area where the main text is.

Text borders can be transformed in many ways: circle, ellipse, square, parallelogram, flat triangle, etc. The graphics don't have to be very neat and perfect, just draw them as you like. If you want to make the horizontal and vertical lines straight, you need to use a ruler to help.

Generally, three irregular lists will look better and be of moderate size. Note that they must be spaced left and right and not crowded together, otherwise it will affect the appearance.

The border can be decorated, such as a circle of dotted lines in the picture above, or dots, curves, etc., or it can be without decoration, depending on your own preferences.

2. Use simple drawings to add embellishments.

The embellishments can be animals, scenery, or anthropomorphic forms of various objects. If you really don’t have any ideas or materials, go to Baidu Pictures to search for simple drawings. The content inside may give you inspiration.

It should be noted that the embellishment should be of the same theme, or it can become a complete background pattern in itself. If you draw still life, then it will be still life personification; if you draw animals, then this page will be a mini zoo. This will look more harmonious and unified, not too messy.

Similarly, there is no need to pursue perfection in line patterns. Drawing at will is also a kind of cute and cute beauty.

If you like the black and white style, then after completing the first two steps, the layout of this page will be completed. Looking back, I can see that it has a unique style and charm. But if you like color, then you can move on to the next step and continue to refine it.

3. Use colored pencils for simple coloring.

You can simply color with colored pencils. You don’t have to work hard to make all areas covered with even colors. This type of notebook layout is simple, fast and cute.

The reason why I chose colored pencils is because they won’t smudge, the paper requirements are not high, and both front and back sides can be used. Watercolor pens or markers may smear on the paper, reducing paper usage efficiency.

Okay, the layout of a simple drawing diary is ready. It only takes 10-15 minutes. With the thank you diary and feelings, it takes half an hour to feel life and accompany yourself. , isn’t it wonderful?
