YOU MAY start at opacity 40%.
By the end, you’ll be full brightness.
Being able to confidently create digital design is such a core part of being a skilled and professional wedding stationery designer. But with so many programs out there and with so many functions, it can be hard to know where to start.
Adobe Fundamentals has been created for stationers, by stationers, concentrating on the key features you need to know as a stationery and invitation designer.
We have collectively got 20+ years of experience working in the wedding industry and even longer creating artwork using the Adobe Creative Suite.
While no two stationery businesses are the same, we will teach you the best practices to confidently develop and hone your own unique design style, helping set you apart from the crowd and build your own design niche.
You’ll also become part of a community of likeminded stationers, all on the same path of bettering their businesses and design skills.
I’M FREYA
YOUR HOST FOR ADOBE FUNDAMENTALS
( & the ‘Eddie’ of the Suite Press Duo)
If we haven’t met before — hello, my lovelies! It’s fabulous to virtually meet you, and I can’t wait to get to know more about you and your creative process over the next 10 weeks.
This course was born out of pure passion — and a desire to take my 20+ years of design know-how and turn it into something that actually helps you cut through the noise. We’ve been there: the endless tutorials, the guesswork, the “why won’t this layer behave?” moments.
Consider this your shortcut.
I’ll take you from messy pixels to clean, confident vectors — the building blocks of your creative confidence. Think of Adobe as the language of creativity; we’re just here to help you order the right things off the menu. Each week, you’ll add a new layer — of skill, confidence, and clarity — until your creative toolkit is richer than ever. And by the end? You’ll be ready to shine as the design pro your stationery business deserves.
Over the duration of this 10 module course we will be sharing in-depth knowledge, tips, tricks and the EXACT PROVEN DESIGN PROCESSES that we use day in day out. Between us these skills have helped us grow over 4 successful award winning creative businesses, which have not only survived a recession and a global pandemic, but the birth of two small children as well!
