Gather Your Materials

Once you’ve chosen your software, it’s time to plan out what you need to create your custom printables. This includes images, text, fonts, colors, and any other elements you want to include in your design. You can find these materials online or create them yourself using a graphics program like Adobe Photoshop or Canva. It’s important to make sure that all of your materials are high quality so that they look professional when printed out.

Design Your Printable

Now that you have all of your materials gathered together, it’s time to start designing your custom printable. Start by laying out all of the elements on the page in a way that makes sense and looks visually appealing. Make sure to use colors and fonts that are easy to read and understand. Once you have everything laid out correctly, it’s time to add any finishing touches such as borders or backgrounds. When you’re finished designing your printable, save it as a PDF file so that it can be easily printed out or shared digitally with students or colleagues.
