Thank you Nancy for this video. Your AWESOME! I've been looking for a greeting card how-to-video for weeks now. This morning I woke up to your video. I know your video is a gift from God. Thank you, Eunice 😊🤗 P.S. "Me"
This is super helpful, Nancy! Question… do you have to design in Canva in order for the printable to be editable by the buyer? Can you use Adobe to design and still have it editable in Canva?
I’m glad you found it helpful! To answer your question: You don’t have to design in Canva for the printable to be editable by the buyer. However, if you want the buyer to be able to edit the design themselves in Canva, you would need to design it directly in Canva and provide them with a Canva template link. If you design in Adobe, you can create your file there, but it won’t be directly editable in Canva. To make it editable in Canva, you would need to upload your design to Canva as a template, which might involve additional steps and could be less straightforward.
As always wonderful video! Very helpful. One question. When your were on creative market I notice choices on licensing . Should we choose commercial (Desktop was checked in video)?
Aww, thanks so much, Mary, for the lovely feedback. Great question! For fonts you will get the "Desktop" licensing and for graphics, you will get the "commercial" licensing. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Great video, lots of info, thanks for sharing. I do have a question about the shared link that you send the customer, is this something that you would include in an information pdf so they get it in their download, or do you still have to email it seperate from the download file? Thanks.
Thanks for checking out the video and for your question! When it comes to the shared link for customers, it really depends on what suits your approach and your customers' needs. You could include the shared link right in the information PDF. It makes things straightforward for your customers, as everything they need is in one place. Or, if you prefer more direct communication, you can send the shared link in a separate email. This way, you can guide them through the process and offer any additional tips or instructions personally. So, it's all about what works best for you and your customers' experience. You could even give them the choice, letting them decide whether they'd like the link in the PDF or sent separately. That way, you're flexible and accommodating their preferences.
Hey, thanks for this amazing tutorial, I have a question how to check the quality of card that it won't pixelate after printing, like you said it should 300dpi, so how can we check that its a 300dpi design.
Thank you so much for the lovely feedback. I don't know of any classes to learn graphic design. I will look around if I find something - I will post it here.
If I have a pro account and want to sell the card as a template using premium features like fonts and backgrounds, does my customer have to have a pro account to download the template?
Great question - Yes, they will need to have a pro account to access them. If not they will have a watermark on top of the elements and they will need to pay for them individually to use them. Let me know if you have any other question.
Ma'am I'm soooooo confused,i want to sell my digital cards but i use pro version... So my question is will it be a problem for me customers ( lik will they be told to pay for premium)coz i saw videos tell so... Please could you clarify
Yes, that is correct. If you use the pro elements your customers will need to upgrade their Canva acct to access them. That's why you should stick with the free ones to avoid these issues.
I loved this video. I do have a question if we make these greeting cards how do you fold them or will they just be a greeting card like a postcard? 5 x7 is not foldable from an 8.5 x 11 paper, unless I missed something. Thank you
Thank you so much for your feedback, and I'm delighted to hear that you enjoyed the video! You've raised an excellent question regarding the greeting cards' folding process. You're correct that a 5x7 card typically cannot be folded directly from an 8.5x11 paper without some modifications. To create a folded 5x7 greeting card, you'll need to follow these steps: 1. Start with an 8.5x11 sheet of paper. 2. Cut the paper in half along the long side (11 inches), creating two 8.5x5.5-inch pieces. 3. Each 8.5x5.5-inch piece can be folded in half, resulting in a 4.25x5.5-inch card. This size is smaller than a standard 5x7 card but is commonly used for greeting cards. 4. You can then design the front and inside of your card as desired. When folded, it will resemble a traditional greeting card. Alternatively, if you prefer a true 5x7 folded card, you can start with larger paper, such as 10x7 inches, and fold it in half to achieve the desired size. Just ensure that your printer can handle the paper size you choose. I hope this helps clarify the folding process for your greeting cards. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please feel free to ask. Thank you for your interest!
I am an Artist. Can I make my own painting and make printable of that? What will be the process? How to get free listing?? Please explain in detail....
As an artist, creating and selling printable versions of your paintings on Etsy is a great idea. Here's a detailed process to help you get started: **1. Create Your Printable Art:** - Produce high-quality digital versions of your artwork using software like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator. - Ensure the resolution is suitable for printing, typically 300 DPI (dots per inch). - Save the files in formats like JPEG or PDF. **2. Set Up Your Etsy Shop:** - If you don't have an Etsy shop, sign up for an account on Etsy.com. - Go to "Your Shop" and follow the prompts to set up your shop name, policies, and payment methods. **3. Create Listings:** - Click "Listings" to add a new listing for your printable art. - Upload the digital file of your artwork. - Write a detailed and engaging product description. Mention the size, resolution, and what the buyer will receive. - Set a competitive price based on your research of similar listings. **4. Digital Downloads:** - In the "Type" section of your listing, select "Digital Item." - You can specify the file types included and the size of the files. **5. Tags and Categories:** - Use relevant tags and select the appropriate category for your printable art to make it easier for customers to find. **6. Pricing and Payment:** - Etsy charges a listing fee and a transaction fee for each sale. Make sure to price your listings to cover these fees while remaining competitive. - Set up your payment method to receive payments from Etsy. **7. Shipping (for Physical Items):** - If you also plan to sell physical items (e.g., prints), set up shipping profiles for those listings. **8. Shop Policies:** - Clearly define your shop policies, including refund and exchange policies. **9. Preview Images:** - Use appealing preview images that showcase your artwork. Show the printable art in various settings to help customers visualize it. **10. Publish Your Listings:** - Once you've filled in all the necessary details, publish your listings. **11. Promotion:** - Promote your Etsy shop and listings on social media, your website (if you have one), and through email marketing. - Engage with potential buyers by responding to questions and providing excellent customer service. Are you opening a new Etsy Shop?
@@NancyBadillo yes I am planning to make one . One more question can I sell digital and physical product together? I mean, I want to sell some printable and some other original art works. Would the charge of Etsy be applied to each sale of printable?
Sure, it would be my pleasure to help! You can have them edit themselves by giving them access to the editable file or you can edit for them yourself. Let me know if you have any other questions.
I love this video but I would have really liked a template to use for the customer to be able to print out the card. This only shows how to make the front of a 7 x 5 card. Thanks for your videos!
Hey there! You're right, the greetings cards market can be pretty crowded. But guess what? That's where you can get creative! Look for gaps - specific occasions, niches, or styles that aren't fully covered. Maybe it's quirky pet birthday cards or minimalist sympathy cards. Filling these gaps could set you apart and attract customers looking for something unique. Keep an eye on trends and tap into your own interests. It's all about market research!
@@NancyBadillo that's right, and a very useful video that it's difficult to find it is which are the digital items with high search in volume and low competition. I do market research using erank and I create items that are high in search and low in competition (all green) but not always it works and those items are still unsold. I sell always the same items in my shop.

Yes, that is correct. Let me know if you have any other questions.
@@NancyBadillo ma'am is etsy profitable?
Ma'am can we use can pre made templates ,edit them the way we want but base is theirs and sell them...will i get a copyright?
According to Canva's terms the final copy should be extremely different from the original one.

The dimensions do not show up when I try to resize. Is that because I am using the app instead of a desktop?
