Hi! So glad you are checking out one of my doodle art tutorials! Every doodle art tutorial  shows step-by-step photos for completing a small, simple motif. 

These mini art-tutorials are super-relaxed and great for beginners, children, and artists who just wanna try something different.

I try my best to make the instructions clear, without being overwhelming. If you get stuck, please comment below with your question or problem. Have fun doodling! :)

Would you like to learn how to draw a cactus? This easy, step-by-step tutorial will help you create a quick cactus doodle you can frame or give as a gift. 

This stickery little succulent would also make a cute motif for any craft or DIY project. Wouldn't it be cute to draw several of them for a DIY wall border?

Valentine's Love Birds Created with PicMonkey Photo Editor​

It was time for a new PicMonkey tutorial, and Valentine's Day seemed like a good reason to make one! This is my fifth full-length tutorial on how to use PicMonkey to create different artistic projects, but this one is a bit different. 

I went with a bit more "moody" colors. V-Day is in winter, so I wanted to show how cheery a little love could be when it's cold and gray outside. 

So, are you ready? Let's make some art! 

I previously wrote a Walmart Savings Catcher app review, discussing why I liked it (and especially why it was great if you live in a rural area.) Today, I'm going to follow up by answering a question I've seen asked a lot: Does the savings catcher app really work?

You bet it does. It works and it pays. 

So how easy is it to redeem your Savings Catcher rewards? 

​Which blog posts were most popular and helpful? Last week I posted about the mistakes and progress blogging on So Not Niche for the first year.

​This week, I'm gathering up ten of the blog posts that were most popular and helpful to my readers/followers. ​

I think I promised to write about my one year blog anniversary a couple of months ago. Eh, stuff happened, and this post got lost in the great to-do list. 

But here it is! So Not Niche turned one year old on December 15th (yay!), and that year has been full of mistakes, progress, and learning...

​
One thing I've learned from being online, whether I'm cruising social media, reading blogs, or browsing art galleries; is that people love giving back.

​Maybe they tithe, or donate to charities, volunteer their time, or find unique ways to make a difference in their community. 

And there is no end to the clever, heart-warming, or unique ways they use to make a difference.
