Bonus Q&A: Answering your Questions About Greeting Cards

As promised, I added an in-depth Q&A session to my Skillshare class: Creating a Collection: Greeting Cards for Illustrators. I, together with Cody Alice Moore, answer your questions about finding clients, building your portfolio, copyright doubts, and much more. Hopefully, this will give you a better idea of how you can start your greeting card design journey. Thank you for sending in your questions these past couple of months; I hope this session helps!
