    Thanks for sharing what you’ve worked out! So you print your own greeting cards, mugs and stickers. Do you outsource the printing of your wrapping paper and all other products?

    really helpful thanks. I do web, film and music, but my roots are visual art: sketching and painting and often feel a pull to return to it… especially when watching folks share art and design kit stories. (:-)

    Haha me too! Having my own business has been (and continues to be) the biggest learning curve ever! And technology is the steepest bit! 🤣 Xxx

    I switched to mac too since I use my iPad so much and having it all synced together was easier… except the actual getting used to using a mac. Hurt my head for a while- I couldn’t even cut and paste my files to start with🤣🤣 And the printing profiles were def much easier on a pc! So it’s not just you 😄

    I'm trying to decide on printer I had decided on Epson Tank but I then found on research the maintance sponge box that absorbs all the waste ink which is a lot is non replaceable ?

    Only some are. I have both the Epson ET 7700 and the ET 2710. The ET 2710 is older so you *can not* buy the replacement maintenance boxes (however there are ways around this). The ET 7700 does have maintenance boxes that you can replace and it's very easy to do so. Hope this helps!

    hi I've seen several of your videos, very helpful and - love your drawings and watercolors. I wonder how you make giftwrap. Can you print that yourself or do you have it produced ? Just asking as a fellow illustrator, who would love to make giftwrapping ;) cheers, Lene
