Learn how to turn your creative passion into Printables that sell forever
Even if you have no experience as a Graphic Designer you can turn your creativity into a new career and sell printables from the comfort of your home.
My Name is Monja and my Mission is to help you create, sell and grow your Printables Business by providing you the best Trainings and Tools to archive your goals. I help you create evergreen Digital Products (aka printables!) and grow a sustainable, panic-proof Business with you for years to come!
Maybe you ask yourself: What is a Printable Business where you sell digital files?
Creatives just like Artists, Graphic Designers and Illustrators who do not want to work as a freelancer and trade their hours for Dollars more often than not work as digital product creators. Those people create digital products just like greeting cards, wall art, wallpapers, games, party supplies, educational worksheets and more (also known as Printables you can print and use when you need them) or SVG Files for Die Cutting Machines. No matter what your plan is - you need the skills to create these Printables and SVG Files and you need to know where and how to sell them.
All that and more is what the Safari Lounge Designer Classes are about. I show you how to create stand out Printables and SVG Files and sell them as digital products.
There are also a lot of Materials and Templates included in the Safari Lounge Designer Classes with a commercial use license that allows you to make your own products for sale.
Once you've created your first printables we will find a place for you where you can sell them. The "where" depends on your goals. You can sell them on your own website, on Teachers Pay Teachers or on Etsy - just to name a few. I show you how.
And beside a place where you can sell them you also need a plan to market your products.
All that and more is what the Safari Lounge is about. And we expand our creative skills with new classes, resources, marketing and business tips!

What's inside the Safari Lounge Designer Classes
The Safari Lounge Designer Classes has four different Modules, a community, templates and resources:
1
Module 1: Your Foundation
We will first find out what printables really are and how many different types of printables exist so you find out what is right for you. We will also explore the market potential and opportunities of printables.
We'll also talk about the essential equipment you need to make sure that your business becomes a success.
Our goal in this module is to get the big picture. At the end of module 1 you'll know what products you can create, how you will create them and what you need to do so. You'll also have your designer name and you'll also get an overview what else you need to do to become successful as a digital designer!

Module 2: Design Basics & Creating Printables
Bevor we can dive into product creation you need to be crystal clear about the fact that everything you do starts with a high quality product. Your product defines your style, it positions you, it lets your customers know what you have to offer them. That's why we will not just talk about design essentials but also about file formats and resolution considerations to ensure a high printing quality and usability.
So yes, your product is essential and you need to know what to include how to make it stand out!
In this module we'll cover the fundamental design principles like color theory, typography and layout. I will also introduce the software you can use and then we talk about which software you should use right now (hint: It's a software without monthly costs!). Sure, you can also use other programs, no question! And yes, you need to be able to handle the program so that is also something we will cover in this module.
We will also finally start creating printables. In different workshops you will learn to create different kind of printables - from art prints, stickers and educational printables to games and cards. We will also talk about creating editable printables because: customisation sells!
We will finish the module by packaging our product. For this you need to create different previews and learn what to add to your ZIP folder.
We will also talk about copyright issues and you'll learn what graphics you can use to create your printables.
Modul 2 is an ongoing module. You'll always get new workshops and templates to create new products.

Module 3: A Place to sell and how to market your Printables
There are a lot of different platforms where you can sell your products. Basically you have two options: Wether you pay someone else to sell your products (e.g. on Etsy or TPT) or you have your own platform where you can sell your products. No matter what you decide to do there are always costs involved and that's why we also need a pricing strategy for our products to make the business profitable.
And: No matter where you sell you'll also need a marketing strategy. And there are two essential tools you should start with - and, there is always space to scale!

Module 4: Tools and Resources
Module 4 is also an ongoing module. Here you'll find templates to create your printables quickly but also color palettes and links to resources I've used. When new workshops are added I'll add more to this module as well! Also: Find Bonuses here.

Here’s what others are saying about the Classes
This course exists since 2009 and has developed over the years. What I've always had are fans who gave me some great feedback. Here is what the arising designers said:
Ben from Benthaicreations
Designer from France
I can follow each tutorial very easily
I’ve always dreamed about learning skills, great skills from experimented people, and here at the DigiDesign Resort Safari Lounge you get knowledge from designers who share their own practice teaching you how to get the best from your software . You watch the video really clear as a step-by-step easy to follow and understand : I am not an english native speaker and I can follow each tutorial very easily!
What is really great is that you can learn everytime you have free time and go back to the video whenever you want! After you think you are ready, you can practice and do your homework…really cool!

The perfect Place to
increase your Knowledge!
The Safari Lounge is the perfect place to increase your knowledge about designing. I’m usually a person who loves to learn by myself, but when I watched the videos and the tips around scrapbooking here at DDR, I discover that many times I used the looooong way to get a specific result!

Designer from South Africa
I'm now a Designer and loving it!
I fell in love with Digital Scrapbooking as soon as I found it on the web. From then on I wanted to be a Designer and make beautiful kits like the ones I saw in Digidesignresort. The problem was, where to begin? How do you make those beautiful papers and elements? What do you have to do to become a designer? I joined the Safari Lounge and found all the answers there. It was brilliant, everything I needed to know was there. From how to find free programmes and setting up your CT team to how to make those beautiful papers and elements and everything in between. I am now a Designer and loving it. Thank you Monja

The courses are beautifully crafted
The courses that I have done from Monja have all been amazing. Everything seems so beautifully crafted, and it actually gave me a lot of entertainment, as well as relaxation and piece of mind. Because everything is so well guided, the pace feels perfect to follow the course, learn a lot, and enjoy at the same time. Totally Recommended!
Sue from Downunder Scraps
Designer from Australia
If I miss something
I can easily go back
Hi my name is Sue (aka DownUnderScraps), for those who would like to know what I think of the new Safari Lounde Classes for learning designing, here it is… I am so glad I joined because I am learning heaps of new stuff and also enjoying the classes. The videos are also great because they really explain things and if you miss something you can restart or pause them when and as often as you need so you can follow the instructions. I am enjoying learning how to use Gimp as I have only used Photoshop and Photoshop Elements.
I am also very appreciative of ALL the help and support I have been receiving from Monja, thank you so much for this new adventure and for all your help :-)
