Tools Mentioned

  • Tombow Dual Brush Pens
  • Karin Decobrush Pens
  • Card
  • Pencil
  • Something round to trace

Prefer watching over reading? Feel free to skip right to the video and see these in real-time! ??


Step 1: Trace a circle onto your card with pencil

(If you’re not sure what paper is best for use with calligraphy brush pens, I have a whole video on that here.)

Step 2: Draw leaves with your green brush pen(s)

Use the pressure sensitivity of a brush pen to create your leaves. By pushing light, hard, and light again, you get this:

Voila! Natural-looking leaves ?.

Using both colour greens, draw in your leaves around your circle.

Step 3: Add in some red berries

Fill in small red dots in uneven numbers to make it look more natural.

Bonus! Do the same thing on black paper

Follow the same steps, using your Decobrush pens. Because I only have one shade of green in these pens, I’m going to leave a bit less room around it.

And that’s it! With a little practice, you’ll be able to whip these up in under a minute!


And that’s a wrap!

As I mentioned, I am giving away my holiday set of metallic brush pens!
