Description
Hi! I am Jen Lezan, I run a creative studio based (Bella + Sophia Creative) out of the Midwest that focuses on Graphic Design, Surface Pattern Design and Illustration. As you saw in my How to Build a Digital Planner course, some of my top selling products are my digital planners and stickers sets in my Etsy shop. Creating digital stickers not nearly as hard as you think. In this course I wanted to share some tips, my knowledge and help you build a digital sticker set that you can customize to your needs. These sticker sets give digital planning a bit of creativity and a nod to the "real thing". Finally, digital stickers are a bit more eco friendly than your traditional paper planners as you can reuse them over and over again.What the class is aboutIn this class, you will learn how to create a digital sticker set in Affinity Designer. I really enjoy using Affinity Designer for creating digital stickers because it allows you to simply and quickly create precise shapes, align and space items easily, add vector effects to the shapes and export your images as slices to PNG files without a background. This basically allows you to prepare them for your digital note taking app and apply them to pages without a white background.This course is a fantastic class to also get comfortable using Affinity Designer - as you are going through the basic process of creating in the program and you get a tangible project that you can use after you are done.A few of the skills students will learnYou will learn how create your own digital planner stickers in Affinity Designer.

We will go over how to load your digital stickers into goodnotes and some simple tasks in Goodnotes like how place and how to resize your stickers for use in your digital planners in Goodnotes.You can use the stickers you create in this class to offer as a free download if you are trying to build an email list, sell them on your website or a site like Etsy or Creative Market or just use them for yourself. To make things easier, I will be including the class project affinity designer template that you can edit and get acquainted with before you start your own as well as a sticker book you can use to load your stickers into goodnotes with.
