Develop graphic design skills making assets for scrapbooking, design projects, social media, printables, & social media
Are you ready to make digital items you can sell online or give away as collateral to readers, subscribers and followers? Are you ready to learn Illustrator in a practical way – actually making things?
Great! Welcome! This course is for you. It’s a fun and a practical way to learn Illustrator and start building collections of assets you can monetize. These can be sold online to digital scrapbookers (digiscrapping), to designers for use in their design projects, for social media use and printables.
In this course, you “learn by doing” as you make a range of creative assets suitable for scrapbooking, digital projects and social media marketing purposes. You will learn to make scrapbook papers, seamless repeating patterns, type elements, graphic photo overlays for social media, digital art, and much more. These designs can be sold on Etsy or other online market places, they can be uploaded to Spoonflower to make fabric and wallpaper, they can be used at print on demand sites as book covers and mugs, and can be sold as vector or bitmap stock images. There are so many ways to monetize the designs you’ll make in this course.
Who is your trainer?
I’m Helen Bradley and I’ve taught thousands of students to use Illustrator and Photoshop. I don’t fluff about and I’m focused on helping you learn to use Illustrator in a practical and smart way. My workflows are carefully structured for maximum success and I explain everything so you know the ‘why’ as well as the ‘how’ of any process.
I have a huge commitment to my students’ learning – I answer all student questions and I often add extra videos to a course to help students with questions that others might also benefit from learning from.
