Doodle Techniques

Incorporating doodling can be a fun challenge... learn new techniques to create unique and personal projects. Here's how you can approach it: 

• First... Don't be afraid to Doodle.  Practice your doodles on scrap paper before committing to your card. 
• Embrace Imperfection... Doodles are meant to be handcrafted and not perfect, which is part of their charm. The key is to have fun and let your creativity flow. Happy doodling!
