After FINALLY finishing a project...like actually finishing it...I'm here today to sing the praises of the two tools that made it all possible.
First, the Finisher's Journal is an AMAZING planner that has totally revolutionized how I handle my days. I feel so much more focused on the actual tasks that matter.
But, this episode is primarily about Canva. Canva is the design tool that I use every single day.
I started to learn design by taking a class on Adobe Illustrator. Then I graduated to the Affinity suite. All of these tools are great, but it's a slow process for me to create something using them.
Instead, I started using Canva. Canva is great because all of the things you need to make a pretty decent design are right there in the app. You don't have to go searching for extra images to add to your design it's all in there.
A little hack that I've done before is if I don't have an idea about where to start, I will send my colors to an actual designer on Fiverr or Freelancer. They produce something I like then, for all of the other designs I need for the project, I just use the logo as inspiration and kind of riff off of that design.
Canva is fun! Seriously, it's where I spend so much of my time. If you're not a designer yet, I highly recommend becoming a Canva designer.
