D.I.Y. Your Design

 

Creative Market

Creative Market is my go-to-resource for quick templates and illustrations! If you need a pitch deck or social graphic and aren’t ready for custom design work, this is a great place to start.

Big Cat Creative

Some of the best Squarespace templates you will find! Each template comes with design files to format your images AND video training walking you through how to build your site. It’s like having a designer coaching you through the whole process.

Canva

30 day free trial of Canva Pro

When I provide design templates to my clients, they are made with Canva Pro. Why? Canva is so easy to use and at only $12.95 per month, it’s a steal! Canva Pro allows you to upload your own fonts so your designs are always on-brand.

MyFonts

Speaking of fonts, MyFonts is one of my favorite resources for finding new typefaces for branding and other design projects. With so many options to choose from, great search tools, and the ability to preview your text as you search, it’s easy to find the perfect font for any project.

Adobe Creative Cloud

For more advanced designs like packaging and booklets or image retouching, Adobe Creative Cloud is a must. If you’re ready to upgrade your D.I.Y. but still not ready for a designer look into a Creative Cloud subscription.

Adobe Stock Subscription

10 images free

So many great images, mock-ups, and illustrations to choose from! And the credits don’t expire, they rollover. Great for social media content, presentations, or gathering inspiration.

The best place to snag your custom URL. Namecheap’s search allows you to see if your name is available. If it’s not they suggest alternatives. All my URLs are from Namecheap.
