You are the only person or YouTuber I have seen who made a great presentation from begining to the end. This is a power packed project,while others will just give a scratch course. The only person or YouTuber who had similar attributes like you in a different field is Alex the analyst. Thanks for being truthful. I will follow and share your videos. ❤

Thank you Ivy. Using your great instructions I created a 62 page coloring book and uploaded it to KDP in about 4 hours. Great instructions. I learned a lot 🙂

Just FYI friends, I signed up for the publishing vault. You can only use the art you download if you keep up your monthly $27 membership. Once you are no longer a member, you can't use any of it for kdp or anything else. They are $67 a pack if you buy them outright. :(

Thank you, Ivy. You are a great teacher. By the way, I would love to see videos on how to use AI, be it in Canva or other apps, to generate images for colouring books. I'm a beginner, I don't have the budget for paid images for now. Thank you.

Will definitely check out these options. Thanks Ivy!
