Hey guys, it's Megan!


When I started my website, I was excited about having a space to share free printable templates for the projects I've made. After a bit of experimenting, this is the method I came up with:


For this project, you'll need:

*your hand-drawn template

*an 8.5x11 piece of paper

*and an iPad + Apple Pencil.


If you don't have an iPad, you could probably do this on your phone. Or on an older iPad/tablet with a regular stylus.


Place the template on top of your 8.5x11 piece of paper, and take a picture of it.


Step 1 of how to make a printable template for your website/blog.
Try to get a "straight down" view of the paper.

Then, download the Autodesk sketchbook app if you haven't already (it's free on the App Store)


Step 2- Download the Autodesk Sketchbook App.
The app looks like this.

Open the app, and create a new project that is 2550 pixels by 3300 pixels.



ree
Click the button circled in the upper left.

ree
Click "New Sketch".

ree
Enter the width as 2550 and the height as 3300, then click "Create".

ree
Click. the "add image" button circled above.

Pinch and zoom in on your image, lining the edges of the paper up with the edges of the white box:

ree
Align the edges of your paper with the edges of the white space.

When you're done, it should look like this:

When you're happy with it, click "done" in the upper right.


Click the "+" button circled below to create a new layer.

ree
Make sure the new layer is selected (outlined in blue on the right)

ree
Select the brush highlighted in blue on the left. You can mess around with the flow, size, etc. If you'd like.

Outline the whole template. I chose to do so in black, but of course you could choose any color you'd like. As you can see on the right, I created the template in multiple layers. I find this easier, but do whatever works best for you.

ree
I also selected the "squiggly line" highlighted in blue, and set it at level 3. This tool helps to create straight lines.

Now, we can add text. Select the "T" circled in yellow:

ree

And enter your text in the box shown:

ree

You can change the font by clicking the "Aa" button, and the color can be changed by clicking the circle next to that.



Pinch and rotate the text to place it where you want it, then click "Done" in the upper right:

ree

After you've finished adding your text, select the layer with the photo (circled in yellow.)

ree

Click the "eye" in the upper left corner of the box you selected to hide the layer.


Now, your template should look like this:


ree
See, much more professional 😅

Click the button circled in the upper left to save it.


Click the "share" button circled below:

ree


ree

Now you have your template! How you share it will depend on what platform you're sharing it on, but for my Wix blog I like to insert an image and link it to a pdf version available to download on my Google Drive.

I used to think making printables was this huge, complicated process until I found this method—it really is the easiest way. Funny enough, I was reading some user experiences on https://au.trustpilot.com/review/payid-casino.net the other day, and it reminded me how people just want straightforward, reliable tools that don’t waste time. This guide gives exactly that vibe—simple, effective, and no fluff.

The easiest way to make a printable for your blog is by using free design tools like Canva or Adobe Express. You can choose a ready-made template, customize it with your brand colors and fonts, then download it as a PDF for printing.

The Novelty fonts are so much fun to experiment with. I tried novelty fonts for a social media graphic, and they instantly added personality and uniqueness. They’re playful without being too over the top, which makes them perfect for creative projects, posters, or event promotions. If you’re someone who wants to break away from traditional typography and add a little quirkiness to your work, these fonts are a great option. They give you that extra creative edge that makes designs feel fresh and memorable.

Ghesquière has been link the artistic director of Vuitton womenswear since 2014. Working at Vuitton puts one in the very heart of French luxury, although I maintain the opinion that it's hard for most people to actually picture Louis Vuitton clothing. There is such a heavy association link and weight on the iconic monogrammed leather goods, it feels impossible to dissociate. Much link like Bulgari will likely always be Serpenti and Monete to me.

Currently, this ordering system will only be in place for Kurono's anniversary pieces; other Kurono Tokyo models will still be released in a serialized run of link limited edition pieces. Plenty of manufacturers and retailers have link tried to make ordering more fair, but nothing thus link far has worked.
