For the class project, let’s bring one of your paper sketches to life in the digital world!

Choose a lettering design you’ve previously drawn in your sketchbook or on paper (bonus points if you choose your project from my Intro to Hand Lettering course on Skillshare!) and import it into Procreate so you can recreate it with your newfound skills.
