So glad it’s useful! I found it really hard to find info when I started so it’s a video I’ve wanted to make for a while! I tried to share as much info as I could think of 😆😍 good luck designing!
Thank you so much for this tutorial, I was having a really hard time getting mine to work out. For those who are using Procreate, I noticed that the canvas width could be no larger than 16384, so I simply halved it twice (as well as the height to keep the dimensions balanced) to get it under that limit and the template fit perfectly. So your canvas should be 10335W x 531H. :)
Thanks very much for the comment! I hadn’t thought of the procreate limitations so that you for updating! I’ll be sure to mention that if I ever make a part two! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so so much for this! I feel like you explained this in such an easy to digest manner when just thinking abt it had me like 😵💫,, the template also makes it so much easier💕!!
Oh yay! I’m so glad you found it easy to follow 😆 it can be quite overwhelming so I tried to make it as simple as possible! I’m sure there’s things I’ve missed out, but hopefully this is a great place to start! Good luck! 😍
Another tip that you haven't mentioned about scaling I thought I would mention: scaling looks nicer if it's halved or doubled, rather than something that isn't a nice clean fraction which contributes to blurring. If you know your final output size, you can make your canvas size twice, or four, or eight times that. Notice how my scale suggestions are an exponent of two.
Thanks for the tip! I’m not sure how many times scaled the canvas is exactly, but this is the size recommended by manufacturers so I think it’s as high res as possible. Great tip about it being an exponent of two though - didn’t know that!
RGB is lovely, I agree. It's designed for monitors and screens, uses white as the toner. CMYK you're right dulls, that's because printers use black ink. Pity the printing industry hasn't worked a way to use white instead of black.
You're right, you'd think there would be a way by now to print RGB! I just find the colours so much more vibrant. I never knew the white and black ink part though - learn something new every day! Thanks!
Printers can't work in RGB. It's due to physics. There are two diffrent types of colour mixing, addative and subtractive. Addative colour mixing is possible when you add more light to crate colour, i.e. when you put up RGB lighting. You start with black, aka no light as your base colour and add diffrent coloured LEDs to create diffrent colours. However most objects don't emmit light, they can only reflect it. That's where subtractive colour mixing happens. When you are drawing in a sketchbook for example you start with a white page, that's capable of reflecting the whole spectrum. By adding dyes you are restiricting the wavelengths that can be reflected from the page, therefore subtracting light to mix colours. Everthing that dosn't emmit light will never be able to work with an RGB colour profil. And everthing that emmits light can never use CMYK. Technically screens don't use CMYK, they can only approximate it. That's why you should always do hard proofs before commiting to a large print run, there could still be slight diffrences between what you see an screen and what shows up in the finished product, because of the diffrent types of colour mixing. And by the way: The printing industry has worked out a way to pint with white ink. That's why it's possible to print on coloured surfaces. But why would you use white ink to print on white surfaces?
Thanking the Algorith. for letting this video to show up on my suggested videos. I sooo want to do stuff to sell at some point. Stickers, pins and now washitapes too...I just never get around to actually do them lol But this I so wanna try out, at least for myself, so thank you so much for the video
Aw I’m so glad the algorithm found you too! I’m going to be posting more tutorial videos like like in the future so keep an eye out! Next video is about manufacturing them and hopefully that will be ready by Monday! I’ve got so many things I want to make too, but they also seem to be things I never get around to! Maybe this year is the year…😆😍
Hey! Do you mean smart object? So you can convert the select to ‘bicubic’ (bottom right after making a selection) and then scaling, but you still lose resolution. The only way to ensure you don’t lose resolution, is doing it via photoshop I think! Worth a try tho, see what you think!
Is there a reason you aren't just using a vector program? Like illustrator So the image can be sized up or down as big or small as possible without losing resolution or becoming pixelated. And if I remember correctly, you could put a pixel image into illustrator and convert it to a vector image.
Hey! I’d always thought that you couldn’t achieve the same textured and traditionally realistic look with vector - I could be totally wrong though because the last time I tried was years ago! I always thought vector worked well for certain styles but not when trying to get a traditional look (and when importing paintings etc). But will definitely give it a go if it’s an option 😍
@@Winkie_Designs I’m so glad you messaged me, there was a setting I hadn’t clicked! That should be the email sent now…let me know if you get it! 😍 thank you again for letting me know - quite a few people had signed up for it! 🤦🏻♀️

Omg this information is so useful! Designing washi tape is like climbing a mountain for first-timers. Thank you so much for all the tips😊❤

Well, part three not including my part two on finding a manufacturer!
You just saved my life with this thank you

Good Job Meg thanks for sharing your process.
Thanks Katie! Now to get working on the manufacture video! 😆😍

This was such a helpful video. Looking forward to using the template in the future. ❤
Aw I’m so glad you found it useful! ❤️❤️
It was dreamy and special🤍🩵💙
Thank you! 🤩
Very cute drawing and design, thanks for sharing!
Thank you! 😍 hope you found the video useful 😊

Hi! Do you have a option to "duplicate layer -> convert to small object" on procreate? >
Hey! Do you mean smart object? So you can convert the select to ‘bicubic’ (bottom right after making a selection) and then scaling, but you still lose resolution. The only way to ensure you don’t lose resolution, is doing it via photoshop I think! Worth a try tho, see what you think!
Wow. This is so amazing 😊😊😊
Thank you! Glad you found it useful 🥰
Thank you for this !
Fantastic, thank you xxxx
Painters also use washi tape. It removes without damaging the paper.
Yes you’re totally right! It’s not as sticky as some other tapes so it’s perfect for that 😍
Is there a reason you aren't just using a vector program? Like illustrator

What ipad program did you use for the washi tape? @6:18. ?
Photoshop :)
This is so much fun ☺☺
Yay I’m glad a tutorial can be made fun 😆😍
@Fizz and Flourish the template isn't working its not sending an email hun..
Argh ok, looking into this now!
@@fizzandflourish thank you hun ...😊this is one item i have never been able to do.. sorry done a few because I thought it was me messing it up

@@fizzandflourish yes all working thank hun ...now I gotta learn how to do it 🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣
@@Winkie_Designs amazing! Just message me on instagram if you have any issues! Good luck 😍
@fizzandflourish just clicked on the video havn't watched it yet, but thank you so soo much❤
I hope you find it useful! Enjoy the free template 😍
So excited for them 🩷🩷
