Thanks Nancy! Do let me know how you go. It took me a while to get my first prints 'right', but hopefully you will soon get the feel of things.

Thank you for sharing all your tests! Love the idea of sketches over text and capturing both text and drawn image. Lots of ideas to attempt. Cheers!

Thanks Daisy I'm glad you found the video helpful. And yes I find there are so many ideas to explore I don't always have time for them.
