telling you I felt like it's a Wednesday
and I had to catch myself M mic Lauren's
mic's off it's not it's on now it's on
it's on now welcome to Makers going to
learn if this is your first time here
welcome if you're um a regular welcome
back welcome back how are you we are
going to be talking about go ahead you
go ahead no I mean today we are going to
be talking about things that you
probably haven't thought about
things that you can sell yeah that you
may not have thought you could do so if
you've been if you at the master class
last week for our members we do a
monthly master class we kind of talked
about like what we've been up to for the
last like few months and then for the
last couple weeks we've really been kind
of like giving you guys little glimmers
into what Maker's going to learn is up
to next and I feel like if you've been
around the channel you can kind of piece
it together at this point you're good
with context clues you've probably made
some assumptions that are probably not
far off very much so I feel like I've
been seeing a lot of questions in um
like live chats about certain things
that we're going to be doing coming up
um if you were part of digital design
for creatives Tanner and Alicia also had
a master class earlier today where they
did spill all the secrets yeah so if
you're in digital design for creatives
check your email
if you missed it go back and rewatch but
also hush keep it a secret because next
Sunday Tanner is going to be announcing
this big huge secret this big huge thing
we've been working on for I mean months
it's been he was saying like around 18
months in our Master Class earlier and I
was like wow it really did kind of start
so we've been working really hard on
this and we want you all to kind of
we're kind of like weaning
and so today we're going to be talking
about something that you may be a little
offut by or you may be really excited
about and I'm hoping you're really
excited about it it's something I love
and I y'all know I love designing yes
and so we are going to be talking about
some things in canva and I'll let Lauren
show you when she gets over there and
all that so so if you haven't already
there is something that we talked about
that you cannot miss and that is this
coming Sunday night at 8:00 p.m. Eastern
Standard Time so depending on what time
zone you're in kind of calculate based
on what time zone you're in but we are
having a um it is very similar to a
master class it's a little more in-depth
than than a regular like master class
but it we are going to be spilling all
of the secrets that we have learned that
we have discovered that we have really
organic Ally taught ourselves yes so
over the past 18 months yes we have been
creating these shops and things like
that and basically just Gathering all of
the knowledge we can we're just like
little baby sponges we have just been
sponging taking everything in all the
knowledge so and we're sharing it with
you all this is like a huge deal this
isn't like I mean make or use a huge
deal sublimation course those are all
like big deals but this is like a whole
new limb to maker going to learn so
it's a little of Bal that we really pour
ours into and we really want you all to
be there at 800m on Sunday it's
completely free for you guys to watch
and F's got a link in the live chat
there's also a link right in the
description so you can just pop in the
description and be there oh yeah all
right so oh yeah Karen says if you
haven't signed up for Sunday you need to
so many things so many great things
coming yeah pretty much there are some
ridiculously good things coming yeah so
with that being said let's go ahead and
let's start yeah let's do it so as you
guys can
see we don't have anything on the table
why why why because what I'm going to be
teaching you today is actually crafting
but in the digital space because we are
creating something
that you can turn around and sell you
can use for yourself or you can turn
around and sell it um either way so with
all it being said we don't have any
supplies to go over other than you need
a canva account that's it now we don't
have anything linked down below for you
guys whatever we use today this is going
to be a very organic um design along
with me situation um but before we get
started I do want to talk about how you
can sell in the digital space because I
think that that we need a base of what
you can do how you can do it um and then
we'll get into the designing portion so
in the digital space if we're talking
about crafts and especially those of us
that love to learn like love to design
there are a few things that we can sell
so the first thing that we can sell are
templates whether that be an invitation
template a wedding template planner
templates um I mean literally the list
goes on and on and on and on but
templates are what you one thing that
you can sell in the digital space now
templates do require your so what a
template is is you are the Creator you
are the one who puts it together and
then you sell what you've put together
to someone else who then comes in and
adds their personalization whether it be
a name a date or a place things like
that very simple straightforward but it
kind of cuts out the middl man so you
create it you build a guide for your
potential customers and then you sell it
to them and then they go in there and
personalize it right so that is uh the
basis of what a template is next in the
digital space we have what we call
printables those are designs that we
create that can then be purchased and
literally just printed out whether that
is printed out at with someone's um
printer at home or printed out at a
professional print shop that is what I
consider printables so printables can be
coloring pages
worksheets um children's activities you
can have wall art you can have um I
don't know there's so many printables
are probably my personal favorite I
print so cute printables are very very
fun can be very fun um the way that I
keep in my mind a template and appr
printable separate is a template is
something that if alici Alicia purchases
from me she has she's paying for my
design knowledge to put everything where
it needs to go because I don't know
where it needs to go but I can go in
there and put my personal touch on it
like names and stuff a printable is
something I'm just going to purchase
that let's say sad purchases a printable
for me STI doesn't want to do the
editing portion STI just wants to print
off and be done so that's the difference
stickers are can also be printables the
only the thing with print stickers is it
takes more work than just printing it
right so I wouldn't consider for the
consumer it takes more work and then the
last one is going to be just straight up
digital downloads so that might be where
your stickers fall in maybe you create
you take time and create the sticker and
then your customer purchases the file
from you and they because they have the
knowledge to create the sticker from
there yes so it's like digital downloads
is the Third Kind of realm in the
digital world of how you can sell um and
like I said that is going to be
literally your customer purchases from
you and they download it on their
computer and use it however whether that
be a PNG an SVG um and you can get into
to a little more with the digital
downloads you could do digital planners
and things like that but that's going to
be think of a digital download as
something that someone purchases from
you that they're strictly just going to
use in the digital space yes for us it's
going to be files nine times out of 10
it's going to be files so those are kind
of like the three Avenues um that we
have that you can sell in the digital
space today we are going to focus on
printables and specifically printables
that people can print out and use as a
children's activity or a gift so with
that being said let's go ahead and hop
over into
canva and let's start building F but
before we go into canva let's go ahead
and hop over to Etsy and let me talk
about you know I've talked about the
differences and the things so
here you can see I've literally just in
Etsy typed in template so you can I want
you to really see and feel and
understand the difference so right here
this is a custom sign fully editable you
can see somebody has created this and
there's obviously I think there's going
to be multiple in this right so what
somebody has done is they have chosen
text because a lot of people and I say
this with the general public in mind the
general public I would think when it
comes to
designing would probably have issues
with text like pairing font pairing and
like adding the swash the swashes on the
C and the S and like the spacing like
you all have a lot of knowledge like I
think even us going through this is
going to show you like you all really
have a lot of knowledge when it comes to
font paing and things like that with us
all the time but like lots of other
people do not have that like B knowledge
they don't and so what do they do they
come here to Etsy and they look for
something so if let's just say and I
just want to show you real quickly like
this one is a pitch deck um template you
can see there are an insane amount of
templates that you can get into too lots
and lots of niches so let's just go back
and let's just top in since the first
one was a custom wedding sign W the
wedding niche in and of itself is huge
um so here you can see we have wedding
templates that people can purchase from
you and pop in what they need um so
wedding planners um wedding
invitations wedding Sonage all of this
these are all things that people have
created as templates that are sold on
Etsy here's another another one a
newspaper program like it's taking
someone lots of time to put this
template together and all the customer
has to do is pop their picture in their
name and change out uh like the word
search is done for them you can do you
can change some of this fun you can add
a vinmo QR code like that's something
the consumer is going to do but it takes
a lot of time to build this template and
that's what people are purchasing from
you
okay so that's just a quick thing for
template the next thing is going to be
printables now if you typ in printable
it's not going to come up um you do kind
of have to get specific I mean I can
show you when we type in
printable you can see we have
invitations but like this is going to be
considered a template um coloring pages
are good printables wall art print
printables um this one is going to be a
personalized printable you can see it is
very cute if you do personalized you can
charge a little more versus if you just
as another type of printable
656 it's more generic right so you're
not having to do the personalization but
it's still sellable right um so these
are all things that you create once
printables are things that you'll create
once so and so are templat
and then list them and let it go so what
we're going to be creating today is
going to be handprint art specifically
so here we're going to just type in
handprint art like this and look at all
of these super cute handprint Arts
there's so many cute ones y'all so many
cute these are my favorite I just think
they're so sweet and I like receiving
these as gifts I like giving them as
gifts I was telling Lauren uh my M's
birthdays this weekend I need to make
her like a card this would be such a
good alternative to something like that
yep so this is what we are going to be
creating today we are going to be
creating hand print art in canva um and
then if you want to recreate it and you
have an Etsy and you want to pop it in
there have at it um now I will say you
are going to get more hits with
printables and things like that if you
have a larger collection versus just
posting one at a time um you can see
most of these handprint Arts have
multiple like this one has 20 in a
collection this one has 300 plus that's
a little crazy affirmations this one has
15 so just keep in mind if you're going
to do something like this we it's it's
more than just one printable okay so
with that being said let's pop over to
canva and actually I've got this pulled
up but we're going to go to home so we
can walk you through step by step
exactly how to design this so first
thing we're going to do is we're going
to select create a design now this is
going to be a pretty important step
right here when you are creating whether
it's a template a printable a digital
download it's going to be important to
size this based on the size that it's
going to be printed on so with
printables and especially with
children's activ activities this is I
would say nine times out of 10 more than
likely going to be printed on an 8 and 1
12 by 11 piece of paper however if you
want to
create there's a lot that goes into this
we we're not going to touch base on size
aspect ratios today
but you do want to think about what size
your customer is going to print it on
but also it's more than just that
that's why you need to be there Sunday I
promise um so today we're just going to
create it in 8 and 1/2 by 11 we're just
printting it out with the printer we're
just going to print it out with a
printer today okay so 8 and 1/2 by 11 I
went down to custom size we use 8 and
1/2 by 11 all the time so that's the one
that I
chose and now we are going to start
designing now we have an idea I have an
idea of what I want to design um and
that is one we saw one that said it had
an l and then the handprint was for the
O so I am imagining a hand e so the
first thing I personally am going to do
is I'm going to type in hand print and
I'm just going to use this hand print
kind of as a God so we're going to size
it and kind of size it and use this as a
God and then I'm going to type in a
little
footprint but m H this is more more like
it I guess like a more realistic
footprint um and you're going to size it
and after we're done these will be taken
away just so you know so I'm just going
to be duplicating that we don't want two
of the same feet so we're flipping it
around like this turning it this way
that will be the representation of the V
we're more than likely going to move a
bunch of things
around um and this is just kind of like
the general size of a child's hand I
think I looked it up and it was
like um 3 in is pretty small for a
child's hand actually it's like a a baby
hand yeah a little baby hands probably 3
in let me see I don't know I got I have
big hands so I guess Georgie's hand is a
little is about three inches isn't it
yeah it's just little it's just Beetle
Okay so this is sized pretty
appropriately I feel like so now what
we're going to do is we are going to
start building everything around it now
you can use if you want to you can use
canva elements you can use canva um
fonts and stuff what we're going to do
is we're going to hop over to maker
going to learn and we're going to find
us a really pretty um just kind of a
basic font today so I'm going to look
for an l and a v i want to preview oh
not a v i need a e l and a
e we're going to preview L and E and I'm
going to determine which ones I really
like this this font it's just a very
basic Sara font but I think I like it ca
is that how you would say that yes I'm
really liking I love that font adeline's
kind of cute Adeline is cute too you
know what we're just going to go
with I like Clea it's just just seems
more classy yeah I like that I like both
of those Honestly though so we're going
to download this I'm going to unzip it
it was zipped we're just going to make
sure we unzip it beautiful it is
unzipped and now what I'm going to do is
I'm going to find a script font from
makers going to learn and you can do
this from makers going to learn or if
you want to look at canva fonts um you
can do that as well
but I'm going to take out the L and the
E we're just going to preview and I'm
going to find me a really pretty script
font oh Cyprus is it that's gorgina
that's gorgina Cyprus is it so we're
going to unzip that one as well and now
what we're going to do is we're going to
hop back over to canva I'm going to add
in a text box there's a couple different
ways that you can upload your own fonts
to canva now if you have canva Pro you
can do you can upload your own fonts if
you don't canva does have a really good
library of fonts that you can choose
from but to upload your own font you're
going to add a text box you can see here
I've come up here to my font selection
and then you can come down here to
upload a font from there we can type
in
Cyprus beautiful
open yes upload we're going to upload
Opus and it should have came in
somewhere we'll find it here in a minute
um and we're going to upload another the
other one which was the
Clea it's top in oh there it is it's at
the very bottom open and upload anyway
so um book teacher which is Carol was
asking about if today's Topic in Sundays
will only be about selling or crafts we
are going to be talking about selling
your crafts but we are creating things
as well so today this project is
something you can definitely just create
if you're not interested in selling this
is totally something fun for you to
create with your grandchildren with your
children um I personally am going to use
this I'm going to use this for uh my
grandmother-in-law birthday this weekend
so we're definitely going to be creating
things but we just are talking about
selling right now because we have such a
big announcement on Sunday and we really
want you guys to to be a part of it so
right so I am just lining this up this
was 236 so we're going to change this to
236 I just want to make sure that both
and it's bothering me that this is red I
mean I don't know why it doesn't make
sense but I'm changing it just because
Ray crib says I'm already lost I
couldn't even get the footprints to come
up so if you're working along with us
especially if you're new to
canva don't try to work along with us um
every once in a while we'll be like okay
watch us and work along with us most of
the time we want to encourage you all to
watch the video pause us rewind if you
need to that way you're not like
stressed trying to search for what you
need right so don't overwhelm yourself
and honestly the footprints and the
handprints are literally just
placeholders right now because all I'm
doing is creating
a a space so that once you so once I'm
done building
everything I'm actually going to come in
here and delete these handprints and
Footprints M but if you're curious to
how I found them if you'll come from on
your left hand side of your screen in
canva if you will go to elements right
here this is what it's going to look
like and then at your search if you'll
just search for hand print you don't
have to use a canva pro one you can use
a free version if you don't have canva
Pro a lot of these handprints do look
like they are CA Pro like this one is
not literally guys this is just a
placeholder so we just need a general
idea of how large a child's hand is
which is about 3 to 4 in yeah um and
we're going to put that there as a
placeholder same thing with the
footprint we're over here at elements at
the top with your search you're just
going to typ in
footprint beautiful once again some of
these are canva free summer canva Pro
you can see here is a free version it
doesn't look like a realistic one but
all I did was add it in um shrink it
down to about what size a child's
footprint like a baby's footprint would
be once again same thing around 3 to
four inches um and then I just hit
command D or duplicated you can this
button right here also duplicates so
that we have two and I'm just kind of
once again placed it as a placeholder
for a
v not that it it's really not that
serious we just made that to as a
placeholder okay so that we can put our
L and our e exactly where it needs to go
beautiful are we good yeah beautiful
Okay so so now what we're going to do is
we're going to add another text box
because we want to add some text down
here at the bottom so a couple different
way yes they are in graphics or elements
yes they are in graphics correct um next
we're going to add a text box and
there's a couple different ways that you
can add a text box in canva um the first
way is if you come over here once again
to the left hand side of your screen
there is a toolbar the third icon down
says text you can click that and you can
add a text box that way I'll say it once
and I'll say it again that is not my
favorite way to add a text box my
favorite way to add a text box is to
make sure that my page is selected I can
tell that my page is selected because
there is a purple bounding box around
the page just like right here um and
this is the same for both Windows and
Mac computers if you want to quickly add
a text box all you have to do is hit the
letter t on your keyboard and boom you
get a text box added love it I mean how
cool is that so easy literally the
letter t for text I love it and it adds
a text box so once we have added our
second text box um I'm going to either
gra once again grab a font from
canva I did upload a font from makers
going to learn um we
used Cyprus yes that's the
one Cyprus here was the script font that
we chose and now what you're going to do
is you are just going to add in whatever
text that you want is this for her
birthday yes okay beautiful trying to
remember what the other one said um for
the most wonderful grandma on her
special day oh cute do y' all call her
grandma we call her mamal for the
most and I can zoom in if you guys can't
see it we'll just zoom in a little bit
for the most
wonderful oh I'm not topping now there
we
go wonderful is it m a m m a w or M I
just do one m m a m a w mhm okay for the
most wonderful
memo
on her birthday her birthday
on her let's do on her special day and
then put happy birthday oh cute yeah I
like that on her
special
day once again I'm going to bring this
in just a smidgen all I'm doing is I'm
closing my bounding box in a little bit
so that it fits a little bit more like
this I'm going to line it up there I'm
going to add a period now I'm going to
duplicate this text box either by
hitting this plus sign here or if you
want to use shortcut keys you can with a
Mac it's command D with a Windows it is
controll D but we're going to duplicate
this text box and we're going to
put
happy birthday exclamation point I am
going to bring my bounding box in just a
little bit I'm going to actually spelled
happy correctly as
well I'm going to make this a little bit
bigger bring it here line it
up and now I think I want
to I think I want to go with Clea just
to split up our text a little
bit actually even put yeah I was about
to let me change this to Clea
that's what I was
thinking but I want to zoom out I don't
much care for
it
yeah put it in caps and add some space
between the letters yeah so here is a
where' it go I don't know that's a good
question I there it is okay it hides
from you now it hides sometimes okay so
in case um you
actually you're right it should be on
your special day not her thank you
okay um one thing that I love to do is
test the waters and see if I like a font
in all caps or not but I don't want to
go back in and like retap everything out
so did you know that in canva if you
come it used to be housed on this top
toolbar right here it is no longer
housed there if you come over here to
the three dots you can click on that and
this little guy right here that has a
lowercase a and an uppercase a if you
click on it it'll make all of your
letters
uppercase that's one of my favorite
canva tools it's like so obscure I just
love it I mean I I just use it all the
time you wouldn't think I know I'm still
not digging it I think I'm just going to
have to change the font yeah maybe
that's all it is yeah okay so we're just
going to look around for some other
fonts because that one I'm not feeling
but I also wanted to so one thing that I
do love about canva is if I'm looking
for a very specific type of font and
right now I'm looking for a Sans sarif
font so in case you guys didn't know the
difference um with a siif and a sand
siif is a siif has like these little
ticks at the end of the letters you see
how the L has a tick up here a Sans
serif means does not have that it's
minus that Sans is French for without
without yeah yes I think I want to go
with a sand sarant okay
um and then I will show you guys so this
footprint we have let's go to one so we
had some questions really quickly are
the footprints from a particular person
no guys we're getting hung up on the
handprint and the foot fo print these
are literally just placeholders let's go
ahead and go back to our share screen
these we're just going to go ahead and
delete them we don't need them we don't
need them they're only placeholders so
we could know where to put our letters
just so you can know hypothetically
that's where you're going to put the
kids footprint we're going to duplicate
that page so that we still have them
we're getting rid of them this is what
it's going to look like when they
download it there will be no Footprints
or handprints this is what your people
if you decide to sell this this is what
they're going to get and then this is
they are then going to add their child's
hand print and footprint on there right
okay so back to our text we're we're
looking for a Sans serif font um and I
want it to be kind of
thin no that's not it Coco goose
lights um
you could do like Barefoot Joanna but
it's not
as no it doesn't fit the
Bob
uh Fierce side it's kind of thick
though this is just where it takes some
time to be real honest M and I
just we might just go back to
the and this is where I get super picky
so this is the
importance let's go to one for just a
second so I feel like me and Alicia are
we're taking our time we're trying to
find a font that works this is what
people pay you
for mhm let me say that again yeah this
portion is why people purchase it from
you because you have the design eye to
create this and
know this doesn't look good right this
is you know whatever um so this is why
creating these printables will bring you
money because it takes time like this
honestly you would think oh this is so
simple let me just whip this up it takes
a little bit of time to figure out what
looks good and what doesn't right so
this is why people are paying you
because people are in a hurry they don't
want to do it all this stuff also Ray
it's fine you are fine it is perfectly
fine nothing for you to apologize for
nothing I just wanted to make sure we
were all on the same page and that we
were working together so nothing to be
sorry for um is radiant I like that one
there it is there it is cutesy Bootsie
so now what I'm going to do this is
another thing to add a little bit of
spice I guess to your designs is I'm
want to try out some letter spacing oh
that's it I really like like that what
do you think oh yeah I love some letter
spacing I love me some letter spacing
and I actually think I want to come back
up here to this one and I want to make
the line spacing a little bit more
together so it looks more like
handwriting yeah love that and now what
I'm going to do now that I have the
happy birthday I'm going to duplicate
this text box I'm going to bring it down
here and now it's going to say love
Ruby and
Georgia if I can
spell now I am going to zoom in so you
guys can see it a little bit better I'm
going to bring this up just a tad and
this is going to be a little bit smaller
I'm just bringing my text down and
moving it in here just like
that y'all and really
if you wanted to that's all you would
have to do now you can if you want to
add in some elements
um let's say like some florals maybe I
mean honest yeah Greenery would be
pretty like anything really if it's like
their favorite time of year they like
Halloween you could do like some false
foliage like we can pull this up here
now this is a little bit big that's
pretty though but like look how cool and
how pretty and professional that makes
that look yeah I and one thing about
canva that I love is if you find
something like an element that you like
what you can do is once you select it
magic recommendations will come up and
you can see all so if you wanted to look
here's another one that could go on both
the top and the Bottom now it's probably
going to take away if I did
that let's say we
up you can see it adds a lot but it's
also like also could be kind of
distracting um so I'm going to take that
off but if you really like this which
you feel like it's a little bit
distracting one thing that I love doing
with elements is bumping the
transparency down just so it lives in
the background but it's not not
overpowering yes I do that on a lot of
stuff it's like my favorite little hacky
hack it's one of those things like B
adding that element but bumping the
transparency down it takes your design
from a three to a nine yeah it just adds
depth I think yes it adds so much depth
okay um so you can do that we can even
go back there was one that I saw that I
really liked that I missed like this one
right here I really like this one but
once again that transparency is a little
bit much for me so like bringing that
down I don't know what is my M's does my
M have a favorite like flower or
anything well she loves fall and like
oranges and purples and like Jewel
tone let's do Fall
Foliage
yeah and I'll probably put it in like a
dark brown wood frame okay if that helps
you dark oh right here it is look at
this that's gorgina now is pop it over
this way put it up here in this corner
you can size it down if you want to I
still think I want to pull this
transparency down just a little bit like
that that's pretty love that and then
you can even add in like other little
elements if you wanted to like if you
wanted to put like could we add like a
little black heart under Love Ruby and
Georgia yeah like the Teeny weeniest
daintiest black heart actually I want to
pull M I think I like that one better I
love it listen I don't terminate Fall
Foliage look at that that's cute I
really like that the leaves are falling
we'll bump it down just a
hair yeah I like I like a lot and you
could add you could do like their little
hands like Ruby's hand and George's feet
and do it in like an orange or a brown
ink would be so cute I love it you can
and I mean you we can even play around
with the color of the letters like if
you don't want the L and the E to be
that we could have we can change it to
Brown yeah like look at that like to oh
yeah that's so cute oh my gosh I love it
and these are also things that we go
over in our digital design for creatives
if you're wanting to get more into just
learning how to design in canva we have
an entire course on that too so she also
wanted to add a little heart at the
bottom so they do have a basic shape
heart in canva
um I like to choose my like the way that
the heart I like kind of like an offc
centered kind of heart but I don't know
that I want handdrawn look I don't know
what are your what are you feeling I
like a perfectly
symmetrical okay like the tiniest heart
you've ever known you can even yeah and
you can make it brown like your letters
okay so we're gonna add and we're gonna
have to zoom in okay so we're gonna add
the tiniest little baby heart yeah right
here in the middle I don't know why I
just think that's just cute right there
we'll even change it to
Brown oh and that's it that's it that's
so cute I think I want
to here I feel like that heart is a
little close to the B B yeah so I'm just
bumping all of this up just a smidgen is
this not like the easiest gift to give
somebody I would absolutely cry my eyes
out if someone gave made this for me and
gave it to me in a frame like are you
kidding me my mom I only have one thing
with the girls handprints on it that I
haven't made myself and it was like a
Dollar Tree wooden pumpkin last year and
she did Ruby's feet on it and it's like
my most favorite I hang it every year
for Halloween a yeah it's just so I'm
like it's just so sweet you know so this
is how fast or it can be fast or it can
take time literally it it just takes you
getting in there and designing but y'all
like I said this is our personal
favorite part of crafting is the actual
designing I do love the the process of
crafting let let me be clear I love the
process of crafting but I love designing
I love designing me too it's my face so
what you can do is now once you have
done done this you can if you have if
you don't if you want it to just be a
printable you could take the names off
of it and anybody can now per you can
list this on Etsy and anybody can
purchase it from you and all they have
to do is print this off and it's ready
to go because you've done the leg work
you've done the heavy stuff of figuring
out what works together color
coordinating all of the colors making
sure it looks good all of this stuff you
have done for people so you can now list
this on Etsy and it bring it can bring
you money with the right tools the right
title the right SEO this can bring you
money while you sleep and that's why you
need to be at the master class on Sunday
Last why you need to be at the master
class on Sunday yeah I'm just saying so
now what you would do and we'll just go
ahead and delete this page what we're
going to do if you want to print this at
home and I'm going to I'm talking to
both the people who want to create this
and use it themselves if you don't want
to sell and you just want to learn how
to make these welcome we've taught you
how to make them if you want to sell
them there is a lot more on the back end
that you're going to have to do that's
why we're saying be there Sunday um but
if you have made this and you want to
okay so shaie has a good question how
would they add their name if you're
going to sell this as a template for
someone else to add their name there is
a process that you would have to go
through creating a template link putting
it into a clickable PDF all of that
stuff is something that is things that
we will go
into later on um but if you are just
wanting to do this as a printable I
would probably just take this section
out the where it says Love Ruby and
Georgia I would delete that out
just like this and then have this as a
printable yeah and that way you don't
have to do a template you can just do it
as a printable okay so or you can even
delete it out and leave a space for them
to write their names in either one
really whatever you want so once you
have created Your Design what you're
going to do is you're going to go to
share we are going to download this
what do you mean I reload the page this
isn't the most recent version I reckon
it
is whatever though it's the same
thing okay thanks canva so you're going
to go to share we're going to go to
download um we are going to I personally
change it from a
PNG um to PDF print this is just because
this is what I I'm used to you can do it
as a PNG um if you want
to but we're going to be printing this
so I like to do it as a PDF print
um PDF print is also going to make sure
if you do it as a PDF print that is a
way for you to know that you're going to
get 300 DPI or more you can also get 300
DPI or more from a PNG by taking the
size from here to there but I do think
that that is a pro feature with this
sliding bar but that is also going to
ensure that you have 300 DPI in case you
didn't know DPI means dots per inch so
if sometimes you notice that your stuff
that you download from canva may be a
little grainy or not as sharp as you
thought it was it's because you need to
slide that size up to make sure you get
300 DPI or more um just a little tid bit
of information but that's how I do that
if you're going to do a PNG otherwise
I'm going to do PDF print we're going to
download this and now all we have to do
is print it on our inkjet printer easy
peasy lemon squeezy I love it I mean do
we want to go ahead and print it yeah uh
sure okay it looks so good on this on
the computer screen I mean it looks
really good up there but it like is
really rich on the computer screen
awesome so what I'm going to do is I'm
going to open this this up and we are
going to print
this and I'm going to send it to system
dialogue personally like working from
system dialogue the best I hate when I
open a PDF and go to print it I would
much rather pull up my system dialogue
so we're going to be using the
ts9500 series the one that we have in
our office I am doing this at best
quality we will feed it from the rear
tray and I'm going to go out there and
make sure there's paper in there real
quick Okie doie so if you all oh no we
if you miss the beginning of the show we
are on we're going to be on this channel
forever this video is but Sunday Tanner
is hosting a master class and we've been
talking all about it basically since
last week maybe even before then but you
all are going to want to be there it's
Sunday it's going to be full full of
brand new information brand new
announcements that you guys have not
heard here on the channel so make sure
that you all are signing up S put a link
in the chat box if you guys want to sign
up for that it's completely free so you
just have to show up and be there um
there's also a link in the description
if you're watching the replay and yeah
it's going to be super fun y'all are not
going to want to miss it are you going
to be there Su be there yes okay I I
will probably be watching so um but you
guys can just watch watch from the
comfort of your home it's going to be a
good
time does anybody have any questions
about the uh tutorial today or any
questions about Sunday's master class we
would love to answer those now yes I
would absolutely love to answer your
questions I can hear it printing I'm
going to go grab it here in a minute
once it's finished but right now would
be a good question do you use the
ecotank printers um yes we do use
ecotank printers a specifically for
sublimation the one that we have that we
normally like our inkjet printer though
is just a standard cartridge printer
it's the um Canon
Pixma um no it's not a Pixma the Canon
ts9500 yes it is a Pixma it is the Pixma
line but it is a Canon TS 9500 series is
our favorite inkjet two seconds let me
grab this off the printer hands down not
two seconds it's still printing oh is it
it's still printing
but the beauty of putting these on Etsy
is like you're not having to wait on
your prints to come out you don't have
to get the printer you don't have to you
know you can just put it on your Etsy
and then 100 people can buy it and
you're not having to do all of that work
but you still get to use your creativity
and design it and that's what we were
talking about in our master class this
morning that it's so nice with digital
files that you just get to put your
creative energy into one time mhm you
don't have to do it 50 times okay so we
did have a couple questions um how do
you upload outside fonts into canva I
will show you that I will go through
that again here in just a second um and
then we had someone ask are there
different licenses needed for printables
digital Dons
templates no not I I don't I don't know
that now if you're talking about like
Enterprise if you're using someone
else's stuff so if you didn't know as a
Campa if you hold a canva pro account if
you have a canva pro account and you use
elements in canva Pro as long as you use
two or more elements you legally can
sell something that you have created in
canva whether that be a template a
printable or a digital download now do I
think that I mean you're going to like
all of this we could I could turn around
and sell this because have used three
different fonts two that were not even
on canva and two different canva
elements so I used five different
elements so yes because I a canva pro
account holder I can then turn around
and sell this on Etsy without having to
purchase a special type of Enterprise
license yeah if that answers your
question so
um anybody else oh we did have a
question about sublimation printer um
larger prints we use the Epson ecotank
8550 it's a good one
converted con converted yes did it come
out it sure
did did you put it why you looking at it
like that because the brown isn't the
brown that I expected it to be let me
see
oh yeah well it's okay it's still really
pretty I like that brown it's like a
taupey brown more yes so this is how it
printed we'll go overhead it didn't
print the way that I expected it I it's
not as brown as I thought it was going
to be yeah I'm curious to see if that if
it really does make a difference with
this one to do it as
a PDF um um actually I just want to try
as a PNG and bump that up all the way
and then I want it to go to the edge so
we're going to download this PNG we're
going to try to print it as a PNG and
see if there's a
difference why not why not why not okay
so we're going to double click this open
that up we're going to print
it I'm going to scale it up up to that
was another
thing um Lisa it'll be 3:00 a.m. over
where you are and that's okay because
you can watch a replay and we also have
three different times for the um Master
Class I'm pretty sure we have three
different times we've got Sunday and
then we have Sunday at 8 uh the 17th at
8 and then the 19th at 12 p.m. Eastern
Standard I'm just curious to see if it
prints any different
so that is another thing is the colors
on your
screen there your prints may come out a
little bit different that's just and
that's just knowing your printer that's
just knowing your printer and knowing
your facts
um does canva not require flattened
elements um there there are like certain
things that you have now canva has on
their website like the exact selling
rights and all that that are really easy
to access if you want to go onto there
you can do that personally and it'll
give you like all the details for
selling temp like templates specifically
or digital downloads specifically and
things like that right yeah so that's
still printing we're checking um I'm
just at this point I'm just curious to
see if the PNG is going to print
different than the PDF normally I would
tell you if you're going to print a PDF
I would change it we'll go back to here
um um I have always done it as a go from
PNG to a PDF print but changing my color
profile from RGB to CMYK the reason I
didn't today is strictly because it is a
canva pro feature but what that does is
it it's kind of like your computer
screen or your computer talks to your
printer and it like switches those
colors up because CMYK is what your
printer is going to print in whereas
digital is all in RGB MH um
so that's why I normally do that but I
didn't today because not everybody has
cana pro so I'm going to run and grab
this print and see if it printed any
different um yes so we had a master
class this morning I I'm calling it a
master class it was more of like a
little B like behind the scenes live
stream but there is a replay so just
check your email no it's pretty much the
same is it yeah well I'm glad you
printed too in case I mess one up
well you've got two now are they on card
stock yeah beautiful I pr them on card
stock for you I love it okay super
cool right so yeah this is in case you
didn't know you can create printables to
sell on Etsy let me see it closeup ooh
these fonts it's a good font pairing
that is those are some good font
pairings I really like this one for some
reason yeah me too I'm digging it okay
so if you all have any questions make
sure you ask them them here right now um
if you've not signed up for
Sunday go ahead and do so because you're
definitely not going to want to miss
this I
mean if you like making money if you
like I mean I mean if you like if you
like making extra money and this economy
I'm trying to make some money same girl
same same girl same no we don't print an
RGB if we can help it we want to print
in CMYK cmk is your cyan yellow magenta
black that's what is in your printer
everything we see on our digital screen
is going to be shown in RGB which is red
green blue you ever wonder why they make
it cmk and not
CMB I don't yeah I always thought
because like it's the blue is not even
called Blue it's called cyan yeah so why
wouldn't it be cmyb what is K
black okay the K and black that's like
me saying my initials are oh well my
names ends in the your name that's like
yours is like n like your first name
starts with N you're like CM y n y
Lauren I don't make no sense it doesn't
but that's what my brain is telling me
well I'm going to have to Google it I'm
sure I I know for a fact I've Google it
because whenever I went to graphic art
school I was like that makes no sense to
me why would that be and but I can't
remember I know so anyway side notes
um maybe different printers do different
yeah so yeah um you do have to know your
printer you do have to know how your
printer prints our uh sublimation
printers each one prints differently
yeah um even our our printers each one
prints differently so you kind of have
to have an idea um and also if you do
decide to sell your digital art or your
digital prints that's something you have
to make let your um customers know like
hey what you see on your screen versus
what is printed out may be different
because all monitors and all printers
are different exactly so so um but we'll
be back we're going to be back tomorrow
at 1:30 and yeah we're going to be
talking about selling your crafts um we
just really are trying to get you all in
the headp space that you can make your
crafts and make the things that you love
and still make extra income for your
family and that's just kind of where
we're at we talked about it a little bit
in the master class last Thursday in the
Facebook group we've been talking about
it for the last two or three weeks um
and y'all are just really going to want
to be there on Sunday so you can hear
what Tanner has to say and do not want
to miss this announcement because it's
like the biggest announcement we've had
I would say since we've been here for
sure yeah yeah for sure so make sure
y'all are there and other than that I
guess we'll see y'all tomorrow sounds
good all right bye guys
