Design Your Own Possibilities Printables – A Creative Guide

DESIGN, SWEET LIFE OF A DESIGNER, Tutorials, Video /

I’ve always loved dreaming big, setting goals, and exploring new possibilities. That’s why, when I started building my possibilities printables set, I knew it needed to be more than just a planner. Instead, it had to be a guide for intentional living. From the start, this project felt like an invitation to imagine, plan, and take action. In fact, I even created a full video on my initial design process—watch it here.

A Printable Set Designed for Possibilities

To bring the magic of the possibilities printables set into daily life, I carefully designed a 20-page printable collection that blends beauty with functionality. Not only does it help with organization, but it also serves as a tool for self-discovery and transformation.

Inside, you’ll find 20 sections, each containing five thought-provoking questions to help you:
✔ Discover what truly excites you
✔ Identify opportunities you might be overlooking
✔ Gain clarity on what you want to create
✔ Take real, actionable steps toward your dreams

Because of this structure, it’s more than just a planner—it’s a roadmap to personal growth.

I’ve always loved dreaming big, setting goals, and exploring new possibilities, Carina Gardner and Year of Possibilities, Printables

Blending Old & New Art

When creating this project, I knew the visual elements needed to be just as inspiring as the content itself. For this reason, I decided to mix old designs with new illustrations created in Illustrator on the iPad. This blend of past and present artwork gave the final product a unique and meaningful touch.

Furthermore, to ensure a polished and professional layout, I built the entire possibilities printables set in Adobe InDesign. As a result, the pages are not only beautiful but also easy to use. If you enjoy seeing behind-the-scenes design work, you’ll love my Sweet Life of a Designer video—watch it here.

Want to Grab These Printables?

If you’re ready to explore your own possibilities, you can download the printables set and find all related resources in one convenient place: www.designsuitecourses.com/dailyplanner.

Ultimately, writing down dreams, reflecting on choices, and exploring creativity opens the door to new opportunities. Because of that, I poured my heart into this project, and I hope it helps you unlock fresh possibilities in your own life

April 2023 Ink Club Room Makeover!

Tutorials /

I always love a good room makeover and this month I am showing you a botanical makeover I did for my daughter. First I removed everything from the room and put on a fresh coat of paint. 

I rearranged the room and bought these great leaf squares from Ikea that I covered one wall with. I also bought picture hangers to put lots of frames on.

I made most of the wall art with vinyl that you can find in the April 2023 Ink Club Bundle. I also used heat transfer to make some custom pillows so that that botanical theme was throughout the room. 

 

Here’s the before and here’s the after. And by the way, she loved it!

Hope you enjoyed this room makeover!

Secret Silhouette Tank Top Project

CRAFTS, Silhouette, SVG, Tutorials, Video /

Today I made a quick logo, cut it out and transferred it to a tank top for a mastermind I was headed to. This was such a fast and easy project. 

Here are some favorite techniques I like:

  1. Flip over the shirt and press on the back of the shirt to keep the design in place.
  2. Wash your shirts inside out for longer lasting results.

Ciao Bella Skinny Tumbler Sublimation Project

CRAFTS, Tutorials, Video /

Today I am using my SG500 Sublimation printer from Sawgrass to make a skinny tumbler out of my new fabric line Ciao Bella! 

This was my first ever skinny tumbler and I was surprised at how fast and easy the process was. The best part is that it feels like magic when you pull off the paper after pressing!

Check out the Mug Press I used and Sawgrass printer here:

Other things to note, Sawgrass has an amazing onboarding phone call that is FREE when you purchase a printer. Go to https://www.sawgrassink.com/ to set up the call.
