Lately, on Instagram

November 7, 2014 by Patricia 1 Comment

fgd-instagram-review

I have to admit that I’m having way too much fun over at Instagram, so you can find me there more often than here. I have to consciously tell myself that I’m supposed to blog, and not just Instagram everything. hahahah! My blog coach, Martine de Luna, is probably at her wits’ end at my poor compliance to her suggestions after our blog coaching sessions.

1. I love Ferragamo Varina flats. They’re so classy! I would love a pair in pink. I think I’m really a Southern belle at heart.

2. Would you believe that I took this photograph with only my iPhone 6? Edited in PicTapGo app to adjust brightness. These carnations called out to me when I went to the market last week. It’s an extravagance but definitely worth it!

3. These F. Scott Fitzgerald books have the most gorgeous covers! I bought these as a gift for myself and I was so happy when they finally arrived! I normally buy my books online, either thru Amazon, or Book Depository, depending on where I can get a better price.

4. Frances Sales, of Topaz Horizon and Topaz Mommy, one of my client/friends that I interact with often on social media, requested me to paint a scene that she described so well.  It’s a much sought after dream for us, moms, to find time to just curl up in a comfy chair with a book, and with nary a care for the world. I dream of this too! Today is her birthday, and I’m wishing this for her.

5. This illustration is what I did for Sabrina, the lucky girl who won by birthday giveaway.  She has the most delicious cooking blog, and she wanted me to show her cooking paella in her kitchen, wearing this particular outfit. I’ll be mailing this to you soon, Sabrina!

6. Make it Blissful has the most fun Instagram hashtag challenges.  The one for this week is #blissfulmorning, and this is my contribution.  I took the picture right after I woke up. I love looking at this pretty wall decor above my bed!

What do you want the world to think of when they h What do you want the world to think of when they hear your brand name?

Your brand is your manifesto, your one-word or symbol declaration of who you are and what you stand for. It doesn't have to be true yet, but it's what you want to be, and how you want people to see you. If you're successful, your brand's perception will become its reality.

How do you want your clients to feel when they think of your brand? What perception are you trying to shape? Let me know in the comments!

Step into the new world of Fancy Girl Design Studi Step into the new world of Fancy Girl Design Studio! The new website is a reflection of my brand's evolution. It's more sophisticated and polished, and it better represents my brand values and commitment to providing customers with the best possible experience. (I do miss the pink though!)

I owe a big thank you to my amazing brand photographer, @zebrajojophotography , for capturing the essence of my brand perfectly. I think she can read my mind now! 

Visit the website today and experience the difference. Oh, while you're there, do try out the brand personality quiz, and share your results!

Creatively adventurous, bold, upscale, and establi Creatively adventurous, bold, upscale, and established. Not an easy set of keywords to visualize, but here's the moodboard and color palette for this talented workplace designer. 

The color palette has very midcentury modern vibes, and one that I am excited to render in a logo design as it's quite unusual!

I launched my website even though it wasn't 100% r I launched my website even though it wasn't 100% ready. ⁣😳

You know why? It will never be 100% ready. It will never be 100% perfect. Or bug free. Your website will need tweaking, updating, and a zhuzhing up here and there every now and then (as I do with cushions every time I pass by the couch). 

You have more portfolio galleries to share? Post them later. Google will love you for producing fresh content frequently. You want to change your headshots? Go ahead and update them every season if you wish. You can even tweak your copy to make sure it's up to date with your latest offerings. You should be making these updates anyway, even if your website was perfect when you launched it. (but realistically, no website ever is.) 

Have you checked out my new website yet? Don't forget to sign up for fancy mail and get my free guide to website images. 💖

That's why I created this guide for my clients. Now you can have access to it too. 💖

It is unbelievably easy to use the Generative Fill It is unbelievably easy to use the Generative Fill tool on Photoshop 2024! The latest version of the software has a much more powerful version of the AI and is capable of doing so much more than just remove backgrounds from photos. 

Here are step by step instructions on how I changed the art inside the frame using this tool. All in a matter of seconds. 

And then of course I tried doing it manually and ended up liking the result more. 😂 but that's just me! It really is a very easy tool to use. 

Have you tried it? And can you tell which one is not AI generated?
