How to Create Scented Marker Doodles

Choosing the Right Paper

When it comes to creating scented marker doodles with your Mr. Sketch® Scented Markers, selecting the right paper is crucial to ensure the best results. Here are some important factors to consider when choosing the perfect paper for your scented marker doodling:

Weight:

The weight of the paper is an important consideration as it determines the durability and thickness of the sheet. Opt for papers that are heavyweight or medium weight, preferably ranging from 70 to 100lbs. Heavier papers will prevent your scented markers from bleeding through the pages and maintain the integrity of your doodles.

Texture:

The texture of the paper can greatly impact the overall look and feel of your scented marker doodles. Smooth papers work best for detailed and precise doodles, ensuring smooth and even color application. On the other hand, textured papers can add an interesting dimension to your artwork, creating a unique visual effect. Consider your personal preference and the style you want to achieve when selecting the paper texture.

Bleed Resistance:

To preserve the vibrancy of your scented marker doodles and prevent any unwanted bleed-through, it is essential to choose a paper with excellent bleed resistance. Look for papers that are specifically labeled as "bleed-resistant" or "marker-friendly" to ensure that the ink stays where it's meant to be, without seeping through to the other side of the page.

Packaging:

• Consider purchasing a sketchpad or notebook specifically designed for markers. These often come with high-quality papers that are specially formulated to resist bleed and provide optimal color vibrancy.
• If you prefer loose sheets, opt for individual sheets or a ream of paper that meets the weight, texture, and bleed resistance requirements mentioned above. Make sure to test your markers on a small section of the paper to ensure that it meets your desired criteria.

Remember, choosing the right paper is crucial for achieving vibrant and long-lasting scented marker doodles with your Mr. Sketch® Scented Markers. Take into consideration the weight, texture, and bleed resistance of the paper to bring your artwork to life!

Preserving and Displaying Artwork

Creating scented marker doodles with Mr. Sketch® Scented Markers can be a fun and vibrant way to express your artistic side. Once you've finished your masterpiece, it's important to know how to preserve and display it properly to ensure its longevity and enjoy it for years to come. Here are some tips on framing, mounting, and protecting your scented marker doodles:

• Choose acid-free materials: When framing your artwork, make sure to use acid-free mats, papers, and mounting boards. Acid can cause colors to fade and papers to deteriorate over time, so investing in acid-free materials will help preserve the vibrancy of your doodles.
• Use UV-resistant glass or acrylic: Ultraviolet (UV) rays from sunlight can fade colors and cause damage to your artwork. Protect your scented marker doodles by framing them with UV-resistant glass or acrylic, which provides a barrier against harmful UV rays while still allowing your artwork to be viewed clearly.
• Consider conservation framing: If your scented marker doodles are particularly valuable to you, consider conservation framing. Conservation framing involves using archival-quality materials and techniques to provide the highest level of protection for your artwork. This includes using acid-free materials, UV-resistant glass or acrylic, and backing your artwork with acid-free foam board.
• Avoid direct sunlight and extreme temperatures: To prevent color fading and damage, avoid displaying your scented marker doodles in areas with direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Direct sunlight can cause colors to fade quickly, while extreme temperatures can lead to paper and marker deterioration.
• Rotate your artwork: If you plan on displaying your scented marker doodles for an extended period, it's a good idea to rotate them periodically. This helps to prevent prolonged exposure to light and reduces the potential for fading and damage.

By following these tips, you can ensure that your scented marker doodles created with Mr. Sketch® Scented Markers remain vibrant and protected. Whether you choose to frame your artwork using acid-free materials, UV-resistant glass or acrylic, or opt for conservation framing, taking these steps will help preserve the colors and integrity of your doodles. So go ahead, create your scented marker masterpieces and proudly display them knowing that they'll be enjoyed for years to come!
