How to Create A Face For "Scraps" the basic bear:
- We suggest that you always draw the face first in light pencil and then use ink. A very fine line acid-free marker is best.
- You can copy the face freehand or use a piece of graphite transfer paper to trace the face onto your bear.
- Graphite transfer paper can be created by rubbing a soft pencil over a piece of paper until you have covered an area the size of the face. Then place the pencil rubbing over your die, pencil side down, place the example over the rubbing and trace over the lines. Works like carbon paper!
- Use a black or brown pen to create the face - follow your pencil marks. Fill in the mouth with a red acid-free marker.
- Remember to erase your lines, after the inked nose is dry.
- Small sticker eyes can also be used on the face.
- Experiment. Have Fun!
