Damn, I do like these Cs, don't I... If you have ever been on the creative/marketing/small business side of tiktok (my favourite), then you know Canva. If not, here is my take on it: it is a free digital design platform that is widely used for social media and other quick content creation. The pro (pay) version has many benefits such as being able to connect and schedule multiple social media accounts so one can post simultaneously in the right formats. But I am happy with the free stuff. Now, to my knowledge, you cannot free-hand on Canva. However, you can upload your designs that you drew in other programs and use them. If that isn't your thing, Canva provides you with thousands of free images, elements, backgrounds, font types; and even more that you can purchase for use.

"You don't understand, there is no point arguing with him, he just doesn't see why I should keep contact with you. I will just tell him I had my lunch break with Tiff." I had just turned up at her office 20 minutes ago and convinced her to have coffee with me. It was a sudden idea, I was in the neighbourhood and after all, we had history, we were friends back then. "Do you still travel a lot?" she changed the subject nervously. Another sip from her coffee, even though it was stil...
Well hello there! First CC creation over here! Back in lockdown 1, I discovered glass painting. This stemmed from my, and my housemates' alcoholism and the millions of bottles that we had laying about. Now, I am not particularly good with drawing, painting or any sorts of artistic expression as such, but has that ever stopped me from creating? Yes. But it didn't this time. Finding the right products, building the supplies up from nothing was hard. Especially, because I can get veeeery stingy with things like this. I love a bargain, I love the knock offs. That's because I know myself, I easily find a project or hobby, obsess over it, struggle, give up, and be left with unfinished items and a bunch of expensive resources. So, instead, I opt for the same scenario, but I will know I spent less money! Sometimes this works out, sometimes you do need to get the quality products though.
