Coloring Tips
• Crusty Colors: For the pie crust, think warm, golden-browns, light tans, and even a touch of yellowish-orange to make it look perfectly baked. You could use different shades to show where it’s crispy and golden!
• Nutty Details: Pecans are usually brown, but you can use different shades like dark brown, reddish-brown, or even a little grey to give them depth.
• Sweet Filling: The gooey filling often has a golden or amber hue. Think caramel colors, light browns, and warm yellows.
• Outline Power: Try outlining the different parts first with a slightly darker color, then filling them in with lighter shades. This makes your pie pop!
• Add a Scoop: Why not draw a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on the side once you’re done coloring? Make it an extra special treat!
