My top tools for digital planning 

 October 8, 2019

By  oliviaraymond

If you are a digital planner gal like me, there are tools that you should regularly be using that are the foundation of your craft. As a creator in this industry, we are taking things to an all-new level so there is no reason why we should let you out of the loop and leave you hanging. So here are my favourite tools to use when it comes to my stickers creation process and my planning.

More...

Goodnotes

Most digital planner gals are using Goodnotes for their digital planning needs, and there are several reasons for this. Goodnotes is super easy to use, no real learning curve is needed, and you can get planning straight away!

  • Goodnotes is inexpensive....for a very reasonable price you can access a tool that can really take your iPad to an all-new level and turn it into a really excellent productivity tool! Not only can you use Goodnotes as a note-taker, but you can also carry your digital planner with you and take action on important things in your life.
  • Goodnotes is what the majority of the community is using so most creators optimise their products for the app, it is a standard among digital planning aficionados, and it is a great way to start
  • Goodnotes is simple enough to use, no useless bells and whistle that would make the app heavy and just clunky! 

Procreate

This is my tool of choice to create hand-drawn stickers. It is way simpler to use than Photoshop ( that I can't understand to save my life!) and they are plenty of free resources to get started with Procreate.
With a bit of time and discipline, you will be better at using procreate and will really enjoy creating your own stickers!
Here are a few Youtube channels that I use to learn Procreate and digital art in general:

  • List Beinkamp Draws is an awesome artist, click here to see her youtube channel.
  • Austin Batchelor is amazing and most of his resources are on Youtube but he also have great courses on Udemy!
  • Sara Tepes is an artist with a great vibe and she is very clear on her Youtube channel where she gives a tone of advice and show her workflow!
