Katie!! Congratulations on nearly 1000k subscribers 💫☺️🎉 It's so wonderful that your channel is growing in community! I love your 🌞 tattoo and that beautiful flower garden you visited in this video! 🌸 And Happy Birthday!!! 💛
Hope you had a great birthday! Really lovely video, and a great accompaniment to my sketching session today! I used to be way too precious with my sketchbooks but recently discovered the joy of not giving a fluff and just creating whatever I want whenever I want too, it's been so amazing!
Hey Karie, it was super nice and relaxing seeing you draw and experiment in your sketchbook. I don't have an art business, but I love drawing and am currently working on a personal project - it's a story of me and my 3 sisters growing up on a farm...but I'm drawing each of us as animals. I totally understand the feeling of wanting to use each sketchbook page and create perfect complete sketches...I've recently forced myself just to draw simple thumnail sketches...and resisted the urge to make them pretty and finished sketchs😅. I mostly find inspiration to draw on Pinterest (but I totally get the scrolling rabbit hole...it happens to me too!) I also love taking screenshots of photos or images I see online...and then sometimes I take photos of something that inspires me. Loved the owls you drew! Hope you're keeping well!
Happy late birthday!! I too have a hard time choosing an inspiration from Pinterest because there are so many to choose from and it gets overwhelming! I haven't used a sketchbook in years but ive been wanting to give it another go.
Yay, a new Katie vlog! I'm excited for you that you are getting closer and closer to the 1000 subscribers mark! @ 3:40 It's so funny how we are so hard on ourselves ... you say you don't love how these turned out and my eyes popped and I said, "I hope that shows up on a card!" I really love that! Just the simple lines and simple colours ... super cool. @ 23:00 Oh my gosh, the owls are INCREDIBLE! @28:00 Debbie, your stuff is so cool!! Subscribing now!! Great vlog, Katie! Very enjoyable, as always!!
I feel like at this point literally every single artist has those caran d'ache neocolor crayons except me, I desperately want them but they're pretty expensive considering I don't know if I like crayons haha 😂
😂😂 yeah I definitely was experiencing that until I got them lol!! they had them available to buy as singles and I considered just buying a couple to try but I was pretty confident that I would love them so I went for the whole set!!
First, I hope you had a happy bday!!!🎉🎉🎉Looks like you got some nice art treats, for sure😍I’ve been eyeing the Caran D’Ache pastels for a while because @melissamartinart always makes them look so good! I haven’t bitten the bullet yet- looking at less expensive dupes to see if I actually will like them or find it all too messy😅but great idea to use the cash back rewards, smart!🧐👌 So glad you got your package and enjoyed your end of the trade! And like I said in the note, I have a ton of the misprint totes around and I’m looking to pass them along to friends, so it was the perfect opportunity to share another bag I just can’t sell at full price❤Trust me! USPS is being a slow poke this summer, but I’ll definitely let you know when yours shows up😄
I really hope you enjoy your goodies too when they arrive!! I've had some bad luck with packages taking FOREVER to get to their homes in the States lately but fingers crossed yours magically arrives soon!!
I love watching your creative journey! Those blue mushrooms, though…❤ Can’t wait for “the next spread” ❤
Hope you enjoyed your birthday 🎂 Enjoyed seeing all the different spreads, I loved the snail on the mushroom, he just looked happy 🐌
I agree! Loved the blue mushrooms as well! Loved the shading you did in that image!
thank you so much🥰 hehe he is a happy snail!!

thank you so much Irene! that is such a lovely idea for a story-what kind of animal are you in it??
@@maybekatie I'm drawing myself as a rabbit, since my nickname as a child was "hasie"(the Afrikaans word for rabbit). 😁
Happy late birthday!! I too have a hard time choosing an inspiration from Pinterest because there are so many to choose from and it gets overwhelming! I haven't used a sketchbook in years but ive been wanting to give it another go.
Thanks Randi-Lynn🩷 That is so true, Pinterest can totally be stimulation overload!!

sketchbooking habits> they're a bloody mess, but they exist for the purpose of being a mess!
