🎨 Playing Around in Adobe Fresco: My Not-So-Serious Art Adventure πŸ˜…πŸ–Œ️

Image
So… I finally opened Adobe Fresco. I’ve had it on my iPad forever but never touched it—because let’s be real, I cannot draw or paint to save my life πŸ˜‚. I figured it was one of those apps for “real artists.” You know, the ones who can sketch perfect portraits with just a few lines? Yeah, not me πŸ™…πŸ½‍♀️. But I was curious πŸ€”. So I opened it, grabbed my Apple Pencil (before it died on me 😩), and decided to just mess around. ✨ My First Creation: A Rainbow-Haired Face in Nature πŸŒˆπŸ‘€ I didn’t plan anything fancy. I was just playing with textures, brushes, and colors, and boom πŸ’₯—I ended up with this trippy face with rainbow hair, leafy lashes, a glittery gold smile ✨, and a sky-high swirly hairstyle. It kind of looks like a forest spirit woke up in a Lisa Frank dream πŸŒ³πŸŒ€. Was it a masterpiece? No. But it was fun πŸŽ‰. 🌼 Then I Tried Tracing – Game Changer πŸ–Ό️✍🏽 Next up, I tried tracing a simple flower in a vase 🌸. Let me tell you… tracing is the move. I added my own twist to the bac...

✨ Late-Night Thoughts: Dreams, Frustrations, and Building PrintablesbySha ✨

Hey there, nonexistent blog followers lol πŸ˜‚. It’s one of those late-night venting sessions where my thoughts are too loud to let me sleep. If you’re reading this, welcome to the unfiltered chaos of my mind. Lately, life feels like it’s moving too slow. ⏳ I’ve got dreams—BIG ones. Like launching my business,  PrintablesbySha . πŸ›️🎨 It’s a name I’ve been toying with for a while, and it finally feels right. The plan is to start with tote bags πŸ‘œ and expand to digital products, like printables and coloring books. Once that tote bag is launched, it’s a WRAP! πŸŽ‰ I’m setting up shop on  Spring  and  Gumroad —two platforms that (finally) don’t have ridiculous fees sucking the life out of my sales. πŸ’Έ Etsy and TeePublic? Yeah, I’m  done  with them. 😀 But, if I’m honest, it’s hard not to feel like I’m falling behind. Health issues have slowed me down over the years, leaving me starting this journey later than most. And while I know  37 or 38 isn’t old  ?...

🌟 It’s Virgo Season, and Your Girl's Birthday is Next Month! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‚πŸ₯³

Y’all, it’s Virgo season, and you know what that means—it’s my time to shine! ✨ That’s right, your favorite creative introvert is celebrating a birthday next month, and I’m here to remind you just how amazing us Virgos truly are. 😏♍️ Let’s be real—Virgos get a rep for being all organized and perfectionistic (which, okay, is true), but there’s SO much more to us than that. We’re basically walking bundles of honesty, goofiness, and surprising amounts of fun. Honesty Is Our Best Policy: Need advice? We’ve got you. And not that sugar-coated stuff either—Virgos are straight shooters . But don’t worry, we’re not out to hurt feelings; we just genuinely want to help. We’re Not Clingy—We Just Like Our Space: Look, I may not call or text every single day, but trust, if I care about you, I’m keeping tabs in my own quiet way. So if I go MIA, don’t take it personally—I just need some me-time to recharge. Big Kid Vibes: And don’t even get me started on how goofy we are. People think Virgo...
