Marker Geek Monday: Bundle Girl on a Swing Video & Card

Bundle Girl on a Swing Card

I kept the background really simple for this one, so the focus would remain on the adorable Bundle Girl and the sentiment. It’s such an easy background to get started with, so if you’re nervous about adding backgrounds to your images, this is a great way to start. Watch the process in my video below.
