Thanks for the beginner tutorial! Love this scene of the garden door. Just hope I can sketch it well enough as I am not so good at sketching. 🙂

Hi Lindsay,
I am still watching your video while writing this comment and I always love them. I appreciate your time and effort in teaching this artist wannabe! Also, I love that you recommend certain products and that your reviews are totally honest. And of course, I am a frugal crafter too and I love it when you remind us to use what we have first before getting more “stuff”!
Thanks,
Evie
