Faded Markers for Rustic 3D Typography
Before you toss away those dried up, fading markers, give this technique a try! I had a set of markers in a drawer for years and almost threw them away, but faded markers can add interesting visual texture to 3D-looking text on a scrapbook paper base when combined with one fresh, working marker.
With this style of text treatment, you work with the imperfections instead of fighting against them.
This is the kind of treatment that you can do multiple times and pick the best of the group for your scrapbook page. Next time you have a fading marker, keep it around a little longer than usual and play with the fading, nearly transparent colour before tossing.
