Creating digital art- a simple tutorial!

Hi lovelies, hope you are well! Today I am sharing  a simple tutorial on how I design my digital artwork. I am by no means a professional at this! But I thought I would share my process with you if you are just starting out with digital design. It was all a bit trial and error to start with, but now I am more confident in creating my own designs!

Here is my YouTube video and below is a simple step by step guide. I use Canva free to create, but you can upgrade if you wish to. 

Thank you so much for stopping by the Den, I really appreciate your visit and kind comments!
