This one is Mimi's Mail Club and it's kawaii perfection! Is there a mail club you admire? :)

Ok guys I'm feeling much better after a crazy few days, to recap I had the flu, one the worst I've experienced...I had a 103 fever for days and in the midst of that I had to help my friend and her 10 month old find a women and children's shelter to stay in, which is actually WAY harder than it should be it took 3 days and buying hotels rooms and calling people...anwayssss Taking my first "time off" from this whole art business journey that I started 8 weeks ago, feels weird and slightly stressful and I wanted to make a post amongst our little group here in case anyone feels the same. In our current climate there's a huge emphasis on social media, speed of growth, and consistency which I'm fine with!! It's how marketing works now and if you try to fight it you probably won't be successful. However...What I'm going to try very hard not to do is to let those "rules" takeover my life and define my self worth. This sounds DRAMATIC but I'm a very all or nothing individual, If I have streaks, I don't like to break them, If I have goals I usually do EVERYTHINGGGGG in my power to reach them. This is not always a good quality, especially in this instance because when days come up where I'm not able to post on my Socials or in this community, I feel I have failed, I lose motivation, I lose my rhythm and I feel like I'm "behind". So I had to remind myself that although I may be my own "boss", I don't actually have one!! THAT'S SO COOL!! Plus I'm pursuing my passion which NEWSFLASH -> I'm meant to enjoy it!!! If I'm behind I can apply for an extension and it will be approved, because I'm the only person I answer to right now. I hope someone else can relate to this, I'm excited to get back at it!!!

I made this little reel for my April Envelope design! Let me know what you think 🥰 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXaecGOihzu/?igsh=MXg2dXNwMHZ4bDY1OQ==

Hi guys!! I just wanted to let ya know that I haven’t been active on here because I’m currently sick with the flu 😷 The weird thing about being your own boss is you feel bad when “calling out sick” haha. I’ll be back with updates on my print club journey soon!!!

Ok so I've tried editing on canva, photoshop, photoshop express, procreate and exporting on the canon printing app, I tried RGB but cmyk seems to be working better but I still don't have it down to a science. I've been doing a lot of research and I found out that a lot of people calibrate their monitors so they know what the colors are going to look like before they hit print....this makes sense to me since in order to get even semi accurate I have to turn my brightness alllll the way down on my monitor to try to envision what it's going to look like on paper, but its still a guessing game!! Do you guys calibrate your monitors? What programming works best for you?
