Great tutorial, thank you!

Thanks
I love your lettering style. I plan to practice for a friends wedding sign😊
Thank you so much for sharing your happy place❣️
Bro wich pen is that?
Confess whatttt
I'm new to what brand of paints do you use?
Could not get the tracing to download properly off the link you sent via email. Came out way too small.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful studio. I love the large abstract paintings, do you have a class on those?
Yes, Have a look at my online classes here www.lifeidesign.com/our-classes
How can I learn about these wonderful trips months ahead so I can schedule it? My life as a retiree is busy helping caring for an elderly mom and keep a 2 yr old granddaughter once a week.
We release the trip information to our newsletter list first and then share on social media. Your best best is to subscribe to our newsletter to get all the goodies. www.lifeidesign.com 😁

Beautiful ❤️
Lovely!
I am learning, one video at a time, with your bright and cheery personality thank you ❤
You are so welcome
Can you include a video to discuss the printing process? I am interested in which printer you use as I assume it is a high quality printer.
Very helpful - thank you very much!
That looks like so much fun!❤ I want to try out making my own watercolours too. Have fun and enjoy your mental health day! It's important to have these days<3
Thank you!! So many videos make it so detailed and you get lost in the color.
Great warm up.
Thku Nicki this is soo helpful.
Thank you so much for this tutorial and information, Nicki! It is very helpful!
Thank you for sharing this! I would love to see another video on the 2nd half of your process; taking your painting from computer to greeting card. 😊
Purchased your new book. Sharing the cost with a friend. We are both retired!
THANK YOU
Thank you
HI The hand painted sketchbook cover was created using a process known as marbling, Marbling consists of floating ink or paint on a surface to create a pattern. The colour may be simply dropped on to create random blobs or the ink/paint may be blown or swirled using an implement to create a pattern. A sheet of treated paper is then carefully placed on the paint and the pattern transfers to the paper.
Do you have a video on how you make your sketchbooks? Thanks. Great video.
Yes, I teach a few different ways in my sketchbook classes. www.lifeidesign.com for more info on classes!
Please re release these new set as I missed out last time.
We have limited sets left of the new brush set. www.watercolorsmadesimple.com/sales-page-357191741718603504597?sl=NTRWebsiteBrushes

You sorted sound!
Awful sound. You have two microphones on - including the computers own microphone?
what pen is it
Thank you for the tour of your studio. I love your antique corner; the frames, plates & vases. It is inspiring. 😊
Very pretty. I know how hard it is when you do multiple mediums. I do oil, acrylic, watercolor, fused glass and resin. Need space for each one but love my space.

I believe thus 100 percent!❤
I love sketchbooks or watercolour journals! I've done "Sketching for watercolour" course and now doing "Creative freedom in sketchbook". I like this video too. I love the colour of Rose matter! I should play around in journals, that way I can improve my painting skills. I like your way of teaching which is very effective as well as enjoyable.
Thanks for sharing!!
I’ve been painting with your courses since I bought all your courses. I love doing it every day. Thank you for sharing your skills and experience! I want to learn more.
You are so welcome! I'm so happy to be a part of your painting journey! ❤️
You are 100% right.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and your portraits. When I started practicing on my own it felt more authentic as I discover my own style. I'm a hands on learner so watching a tutorial and then practicing on my own is best for me. Sometimes I go back and review a tutorial and fine tune another version is another way I practice. Your teaching style has been so good for me and I often hear myself thinking "I don't love it but I'm going to go with it" and am often surprised at the outcome!
Thank you for this video. For a card, what paper do you scan to?
Awesome thank you!!!
I just shredded lots of old cards I could have used like this. Wasn't thinking creatively. Thku Nicki for the ideas.
Bookmaking yes!
Would love to see a video on how to make a book.
I'll be adding a new Creative Studio Session where I'll show how I made the book in the video as well as continue on the abstract art collage making journey. You can have a look here www.lifeidesign.com/creative-studio-sessions. I hope you can join me!
