In this class, you’ll learn how to make colorful hand drawn digital stickers using Procreate. An iPad is required for Procreate.  If you don't have an iPad yet, check out my post on how to choose <a href="https://apenandapurpose.com/best-ipad-for-procreate/" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">the best iPad for Procreate.  </a>
Once you create your stickers, I will show you how to use your stickers in the GoodNotes app on your iPad.  
When you know how to create your own stickers, you can use them over  and over again!
In this class, I will teach you:
<ul><li>Where to find illustration for simple drawings, even if you don’t know how to draw (yet).  </li>
<li>A simple introduction to the Procreate app so you can get started right away.</li>
<li>How to use the Procreate app to improve your drawing.</li>
<li>How to color your stickers in Procreate.</li>
<li>How to use shadows and textures to make your stickers pop and look like they are made of paper.  Yes, your stickers can look “realistic” in your digital planner!  I love when digital stickers have a white “paper” outline and appear as if they are popping off the page.  I will teach you to create that effect.  </li>
<li>How to export your stickers for use in a digital planner.</li>
<li>How to crop and use your stickers in the GoodNotes app on the iPad.  </li>
</ul>Although it would be helpful if you had some familiarity with the Procreate app, no worries!  I will introduce you to the parts of the app you will need to use to relate digital stickers and lead you step by step through the process.  In order to participate in making your own digital stickers, you will need to have purchased the Procreate app on an iPad that has the ability to use a stylus.  
Digital planners can be used in any note app that allows you to annotate.  I will be demonstrating how to crop and use your stickers in the GoodNotes app since that is the one that I use.  If you do not have a digital planner and would like to try one out, you can <a href="https://apenandapurpose.com/digital-planner" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">grab a copy of a free digital planner in this blog post.</a>  
This course is geared to beginners.  You do not need to know how to draw to complete this course since I provide my sketches for you to trace to make your own stickers out of them.  
Once you learn the simple concepts within this short course, you will be able to easily design your own stickers and use them in your digital planner. You can create functional stickers, checkboxes, and stickers made with text, whatever you want!   You'll also have here skills necessary to use any image as a sticker within your digital planner!   I think it’s fun to add pictures of my dogs (which you may hear in the videos haha!) to my planner.
