This is the Mixed Media Contour Design, where you take different blind contours and arrange them with a background. You can use fully blind contour drawings, where you only look at the subject and not the paper, and you can use blind contour drawings where you look at the paper occasionally. 

The contour drawings on my project where drawn on drawing paper with a Sharpie gel pen. The final piece was made with watercolors and Micron pens on watercolor paper.

The only contour drawing that I did of a person is Jillian, my other contours were a phone in the study hall room, my phone, and my mechanical pencil. I also added a contour drawing of my hand.  I arranged it so that there was one contour drawing in each corner and one in the middle. I took a pencil and sketched out all the flowers really lightly, before using an eraser on it so the lines were barely visible. The I used watercolor paint and painted the background, before outlining all the flowers and details in Pen. To make the contour drawing seem less boring, I took a pencil and added to each of the contours so that they weren't just white.
