How To Enhance A Free Digital Download

Let’s talk about using digital downloads in your artwork. In this video, I’ll show you how I take my printables to the next level and use them as a starting point for my journal spreads.

The digital download I use in this spread is a freebie I sent to my email list. It’s not too late for you to claim it, too! Keep reading →

When I enhance them with vibrant colors and additional art marks, it really brings the page to life! I also mentioned how the printed colors may not always look as vibrant as they do on screen, but I've found ways to work around that by adapting and making the digital downloads into something that I'm excited about using.

Another technique I discuss in this tutorial is using fabric and stitching to add texture to the pages. I love integrating fabric into my artwork, and I think it brings a really unique dimension to the pages. By tearing off smaller pieces of fabric and mixing them with different art mediums, it adds an interesting tactile element to the spread.

Overall, I think using digital downloads and incorporating different textures into my artwork has really added a fun and dynamic element to my journal spreads. If you'd like to see how I put these techniques into practice, be sure to check out the video above, and don't forget to download the free printable to give it a try yourself.
