iPad Lettering, Procreate, Tutorials, Watercolor

This is one of those questions that has a lot of variables, so I’m sharing my process specifically this week. The main variables include what kind of monitor you have, what kind of printer you’re using and what type of paper you’re printing on. There are SO many different combinations of those three items that it’s difficult to say, ‘do this and you’re set!’ I’ll break down everything to keep in mind, though, and share my best tips for how to print artwork from Procreate. Read on to see all my tips!

Tutorials

I’ve been asked quite a few times recently how to take one layout and have multiples of it on a single page when printing. In other words, if you have an invitation that’s 4″ wide by 6″ tall, you’d want to fit two of them on an A4 or 8.5″x11″ sheet of paper instead of just one. This is an especially great idea for anyone who sells digital printables through etsy, or delivers digital printables to clients which are editable/customizable in Adobe Reader, like in this tutorial I created awhile back. If you’ve ever wondered what the quickest way of doing this in Illustrator is (with trim marks included so you get the exact size you need), here’s the answer 🙂

Happy Tuesday! This week’s tutorial comes courtesy of Jodie who asked a great DIY question I think will help a lot of people. Personal business card printing can get pricey pretty quickly if you’re looking for anything better than a paper thin glossy card (ick). I’ve DIY’d every personal business card I’ve ever made. Yup. And you know what? Even fancy shmancy design studios loved em. So say you’ve designed up a killer card design in Illustrator and don’t want to be wasteful with your paper. Say you also have a back of the card designed that you need to match up to the front when you print on your home printer. What’s the best way to make the most of your paper and have things work out perfectly front to back? In this week’s tutorial, I share how to bulk print DIY business cards using Illustrator to print 8 cards, front and back using one sheet of 8.5″x11″ paper. You can also use the same method in InDesign if you’d prefer using that instead. Let’s go!

One page websites have gotten really popular these days! When I got hired at my current job, I split my time between design + working production for the first year. During that time, I looked at a lot of designers’ files and it taught me sooo much. My point to saying this is – even if you’re not looking to code up a psd, just download one or two of these 5 free one page website psds and check them out. Digging into even one file could inspire and even help with learning how to design your own.
