Layer Up

These pens can all layer over each other- just make sure he layer underneath is fully dry first. To get a fully opaque build up of colour with decorite pens you might want to double up

These pens have a variety of different nibs.

The Decorite markers are have brush nibs which are ideal for nice, broad strokes and paint brush like like sweeps. The two different nib sizes mean you can switch up the size with ease! The larger size is good for filling in larger areas.

Copic Acrea have fine nibs, ideal for fine lines and details.

Top Tip From Roxxann Murphy

If I want to make sure the fluorescent colors show up on my black background I first use a white pen, then layer the fluorescent atop the white.
