Consigli dalla puntata

• Coffee granules create an interesting texture but require careful removal and may leave marks.
• Stick with your artwork until the end—once mounted on a card, imperfections often look intentional and beautiful.
• Adding darker details to flowers after the background is dry helps them stand out from the background.
