Simple right? Yeah!

First draw the stroke on paper using marker or paintbrush

Second, digitalize it by cropping out the non-stroke, blackening, and altering the image as needed using GIMP or an image editing software of your choice (basic knowledge required or a quick YT tutorial)

Lastly, apply an image underneath your stroke then erase all the parts that are shown outside of the stroke

Given the right brushes (may require a bit of web searching, but there are a wide variety if 'dirty' brushes available) one can do something similar (without the paper & digitalize steps) in GIMP (no other software needed).

To avoid having to manually erase the unneeded parts of the stoke layer:
Place your image at the bottom of the layer stack (either in the image or in a specific layer group) then mask the layer to show only the wanted image on a transparent background [Often easiest by using the layer alpha channel as a mask if it's something you have drawn.]

Working on a copy
of this layer 'Apply Layer Mask' and make the original invisible.

Above this place a desaturated version of the stroke layer with the layer mode set to HSL Color, then (above that) the colored stroke layer also with the layer mode set to HSL Color.
