Flower and Ladybug YouTube Video by Conie Fong

Hello friends and welcome to my post.  Today, I am featuring the adorable Flower and Ladybug image by Conie Fong.  Conie teaches you how to draw this sweet image by following her wonderful YouTube video here.  Conie also has other fabulous images whereby she teaches you how to draw them.  How fun is that?

So that you can get a better idea of how versatile and cute this image is, Conie has converted it to JPG format for the Design Team members.  Here is my Design Team card:

I used my Copic markers to colour the image.  Remember to check out Conie's YouTube videos.  Conie also has two Facebook groups.  One group is called Draw with Conie.  If you draw any of Conie's images from her YouTube videos, you can post them here.

Conie also has another Facebook group called Conie Fong Art & Design.  This group showcases her etsy shop images which are coloured by the DT members and other crafters who love Conie's gorgeous images.

That's all from me today.  Lori xx

 Hi friends!  The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog's new challenge (#629) begins today.  This week's theme is:

ALTER IT 

(Alter your image in some way) 

My Design Team card showcases the fabulous So Pretty!! image by TPS.  I cropped the image so that the lower portion of her legs are not seen.
