Me, my husband and our two cats are living in the UK for a year. I want to make a portrait of our cute little brick house here. 

My paper is too thick for all of the tracing methods mentioned in the video. So I used my old school trick (aka not letting my parents sign a bad grade). On the back of the photo scribble roughly over where you want to draw the tracing lines. Put photo on your aquarell paper (with photo on top and scribble on the back side of it) and draw your tracing lines. Be careful not to move the paper during the process. When finished with your tracing take off photo and voilà: there is your house. :-)
