Fun Facts About Strawberry Shortcake!
From Greeting Cards to Superstardom
It might surprise young artists to learn that Strawberry Shortcake did not start her life on television. She was originally conceptualized in 1977 by an artist named Muriel Fahrion for American Greetings. She was first designed simply to appear on greeting cards to spread cheer! It wasn’t until later, due to her immense popularity, that she was developed into the dolls and cartoons that the world knows and loves today.
A Delicious Circle of Friends
In the world of these coloring pages, one is never lonely. Strawberry Shortcake is famous for her circle of friends, all of whom share a unique trait: they are named after delicious desserts and fruits! From the studious Blueberry Muffin to the fashion-forward Lemon Meringue and the energetic Raspberry Torte, the character design for each friend reflects their specific food theme, offering a wonderful variety of shapes and styles to color.
The Famous Polka-Dotted Pet
No portrait of Strawberry Shortcake is complete without her faithful companion, Custard. Custard is not just any ordinary cat; she is known for her sassy attitude and her very distinct coat. She is pink with dark pink polka dots! This unique pattern challenges the artist to be precise with their coloring tools, ensuring that Custard looks just as sweet and stylish as her owner.
Coloring Tips for Your Strawberry Shortcake Masterpiece
To truly bring these Strawberry Shortcake coloring pages to life, consider these artistic techniques to enhance the final image:
- Mastering the Strawberry Texture: Strawberry’s hat is her signature accessory. To give it that realistic “berry” look, the artist suggests using a fine-point dark red marker to color the small seeds first. Then, lightly shade over the rest of the hat with a soft pink or bright red colored pencil. This layering technique creates depth and makes the hat pop off the page.
- Creating a Dreamy Background: Many of these pages feature garden settings. Instead of pressing hard with crayons, try using watercolor paints or pastels for the background. A soft wash of green and blue can create a “dreamy” field effect, which makes the crisp lines of the character stand out even more.
- Adding Gloss to the Hair: Strawberry Shortcake is known for her luscious red curls. To make her hair look shiny and healthy, leave small, curved strips of white paper uncolored near the top of her head where the light would hit. Alternatively, use a white gel pen after you are finished coloring to add highlights, giving the hair volume and life.
