How to Color Your Ghost Coloring Pages
Make your ghost coloring pages perfect with these coloring tips. Since ghosts are usually white or translucent, they can be tricky coloring pages. So here are our best tips and tricks!
Don’t Be Afraid of Blending and Shading
You can blend colors to make a ghostly hue. For example, blue and white can make something seem transparent. This is called a tint. In fact, anytime you add a little white to a color, you are making a tint. This is a great technique to employ for coloring ghosts or anything else transparent, and you can learn even more about it on our complementary colors page.
You can also simply add some shadows around the edges of the ghost. You could use a color like black or gray to suggest shadows at the edges of the ghost, while leaving the center white. This can give your ghost dimension without stripping him of his ghostly pallor.
Color Outside the Lines
There are no real “rules” when it comes to ghost coloring pages. In fact, these cute ghosts can be any color you want! Don’t limit yourself to what you think a ghost is supposed to look like. Maybe your children want to color a ghost purple or red. Let them go for it! These fun and simple coloring page designs are great for unleashing your creativity.
Use Other Fun Materials
You could also incorporate other materials in your coloring endeavor. You might use some glitter to make a fabulous and sparkly ghost, for example. Or break out the stickers and let your kids add their own touches to our ghost coloring pages. If you’re used to using crayons or colored pencils for coloring time, maybe try markers this time.
