so a lot of people are selling
printables on Etsy or on any other
platforms and it has been a
life-changing move for a lot of people
because you can sell an endless amount
of products that you don't have to
constantly make again and again and
again so that's kind of brilliant when
you think about that and a lot of people
are using canva for that and that is a
really cool app but you know what else
is a cool app kiddle they have very
clear licensing they have DPI control
and a bunch of other stuff and in
today's video I'm going to show the
Kittle platform for creating your own
printables to sell an Etsy or anywhere
else but in order for me to do that I
need to get out of my pajama and go sit
at my table so
um let's just uh transition with magic
hi everyone welcome back to my channel
my name is Madeline I teach creative
people how to sell their Art online and
today I'm all about how to create
printables to sell on Etsy or any other
platform using an app called kiddo and
when I say app I'm in like computer app
I mean like a tool like a web app like
canva but different than canva in
today's video I'll be going over five
main things the first one is what is
Kittle and one I think it's better than
canva the second part will be all about
licensing for digital download items and
printables which means what you can and
cannot sell and yes it's not like a
seven page PDF that you need to figure
out if it's correct or not it's really
simple when it comes to the licensing on
Kittle it's actually one of the reasons
I like them Third how to actually use
the Kittle platform to design your
printables fourth what kind of
printables can you make and generally
speaking where you can sell them and
five pricing of the platform because
it's not a free tool they have a free
version and it's actually really limited
so a pro version is in fact recommended
and if you watch this video till the end
you might find out that the pro version
of Kittle gives you a lot more than the
pro version of canva and you can
actually get everything you need to
complete the sale of printables from
canva for free now while I will be
showing you kill platform I will not be
doing a step-by-step tutorial to create
all these amazing printables there are
so many of them I have had so many
videos on this channel for selling
printables using canva and I plan on
making these videos as well using Kittle
however as some of you know November is
going to be a bit of a shorter month for
me and then I'm taking December off but
before I leave you I would like to make
a very specific Kittle printable video
and I need your help deciding what that
video will be right after you hear all
the printable options I'm going to give
you with kiddo please go into the
community tab of this channel where I
posted a poll of what specific video
you'd like me to make next like how to
make and sell printable coloring pages
with Kittle how to make printable
greeting cards printable wall art and I
will take a few days to tally up the
votes and see what won and will make a
video about that before I go on my break
sounds good so let's start with our
first section which is what is Kittle
Kittle is a design app that is web-based
which means it's on your browser you
simply go to kittle.com or with the link
in the description down below and it
allows you to create so many different
types of designs and I have been using
it for print on a man as the company was
originally meant for print on demand
Kittle has so many different templates
for print-on demand products whether
it's labels stickers t-shirts and
posters that are all coming from either
the Kittle creators or from the
community that share a template that you
later on can edit and that's for print
in a man Kettle is very Community
oriented whether it's on their YouTube
channel hosted by Drew where they host
different YouTubers including myself
twice or if it's their challenges which
is actually kind of exciting I think
every week or two weeks they have a
different Challenge and you can win
Kittle Pro and expert memberships as
well as other prizes when they do
collaborations with other creators for
example we recently did a challenge
together Kittle and I about designing
print-on notebooks and the first place
winner won a hundred dollars Amazon gift
card if you'd like me to make another
challenge with Kittle in the New Year
please let me know that in the comment
section down below and I'll tell Drew
look so many people want me to make a
challenge I have to do it now we're
going to talk about why Kettle is better
than canva in my opinion for printables
now there was a similar video about that
Kittle versus canva for print on a man
users and again when I say better I mean
for my personal use maybe you have
different uses that you need from the
platform and that's okay the first thing
is that canva is a web app meaning on
the browser that was designated for
graphic designers for web it's an
amazing place to create beautiful videos
and beautiful templates for social media
you have great access to create video
ads banner ads you can create graphics
for your website and it's really amazing
however canva was not made to take
anything to print which is why you don't
have DPI control especially not as
clearly as on Kittle where you can
literally type in the DPI that you want
your work to be in and the reason why
Kindle has this DPI controller is that
Kittle was made for print on a man it
was literally meant for people to design
a design and then print it on an item
which is exactly what you're doing what
you're telling your buyers to do when
you're selling them printables Kittle
has an extensive and unique and
exclusive font collection as Kittle is
the brainchild of Heritage type Co which
is a font company so they have a lot of
various fonts that are super unique and
if you don't know the importance of
fonts well yeah fonts are incredibly
important especially when people got
used to seeing the same fonts over and
over and over again in print on demand
in printables in KDP books in all of
that kiddo also has really really cool
text effects that are so much better
than what canva has to offer you in fact
a lot of their text effects regarding
the actual text and how it looks
individual letters it really reminds me
when I was in school and I was doing
those diary Doodles and headlines and
all kinds of that with markers it's
really really unique and really special
but on top of these text effects that
are on the actual text KIRO also has the
option to move your text to make it go
up go down in an angle circular and even
complete morphing of the text to your
liking so you can create a text that
will be inside a shape for example in
this notebook that I created the text
inside the heart shape KIRO also has
this really really cool grungy vibe that
I feel like it would be hard for me to
create it if I had to use any other
platform and I feel like the world is
going towards this grunge and vintage
Vibe when it comes to print to the man
as well as printables so I really do
like it however you can also create
those elegant cursive variety Vibe pale
pink kind of thing and you can be sure
that these designs will come out good
when being printed because again you
have DPI control and you can manually
set your DPI to 300 which is considered
the standard Norm for selling digital
download files now let's talk about
Kittle licensing and unlike canva and a
lot of other platforms where everything
is a bit confusing the Kittle licensing
for selling printables is actually very
simple and I know it because I spoke to
them I'm not taking this licensing
information from any website trying to
see if I got it correctly I'm taking it
directly from the kiddo crew that I
spoke with and made sure that what I'm
saying in this video is correct so you
guys can make money the good
old-fashioned way legally with actually
selling things you're allowed to sell
when you go into Kittle you see all of
these templates and these templates were
meant for print on demand Sellers and at
the moment of recording this video they
can only be used for print on a man
colors and not for people who want to
sell printables however if you go to the
platform yourself and create a design
from scratch you can use it for making
printables of multiple kinds you can
create on Kittle printable digital end
products and not digital products meant
for licensing and I'll explain for
example if you create a coloring page
using Kittle you can sell it as a
coloring page printable on Etsy or make
a larger PDF of these and sell a
printable coloring book and even put it
on Amazon KDP if you want to same goes
for printable wall art posters printable
greeting cards and all that these are
items that you're selling so that the
buyer of these items is going to
download the file and use it themselves
however you cannot create digital
download files that are meant for the
buyer to use themselves in a business
which means you can't create a file and
then sell it for someone else to put it
on a printable or on print on demand you
can only sell to the direct consumer
that is going to be using your product
which is actually a really large variety
of products that you can make now before
I get to the full list of what you can
design with Kittle to sell as printables
I would like to quickly show you how
this platform looks like when you're
going in and designing and I'm reminding
you there will be a specific design
tutorial for a specific product that you
guys are going to choose from the poll
in the community tab designing with
Kittle is actually quite simple all you
have to do is go to the top and click on
create new project in your new project
which was created automatically to be
1200 pixels by 1200 pixels you have to
go to the wrench tool and manually
select your size you can select from
their sizes like a poster size or an A4
or you can manually input your size in
pixels and inches in centimeters and so
on we're not mining the DPI at the
moment because the DPI would be added on
while we download the file you can start
off your design by using Kittle text
Kittle graphic elements or Kittle photos
as well as upload your own Graphics to
the black platform or your own photos to
use them in your design start off your
design by adding text from Kittle going
over their amazing selection of fonts as
well as their elements and their photos
or if you have your own graphic elements
and photos you can upload them on to the
Kittle platform yourself and use them in
your design when it comes to text you
have so many different fonts that you
can choose from and so many different
text effects I really recommend taking
the time and trying to understand the
abilities of the platform before you go
ahead and create a design yourself you
can also play around with some of their
templates and see what other people did
in that template to understand the logic
of how to create a good design yourself
I think that there is definitely a
learning curve when it comes to using
Kittle mostly because there are so many
other options if you compare it to canva
but it's definitely worth to try to
master these tools and these elements in
order to create a really really good
design Kittle also has textures which
you can place on top of your design to
be featured on the entire design or
clipping them up to the content and even
Alpha Mass even though Alpha masking in
this case is not really something that
we'll be using when we're selling
printables you can also use photos
whether from Kittle or from yourself and
create a clipping mask from these photos
and overlay on top of a different photo
or a different silhouette so for example
I can take this beautiful photo and sort
of clip it around a silhouette of a
Christmas tree in order for me to create
this beautiful design for a greeting
card just as an example while working on
the design you can always go in and
change the size that you're working on
if you need to readjust it for a
different product even though I would
recommend duplicating that design before
you change the size in case you want to
go back to an old design and have both
in both sizes you can also use one of
their best features which is layers
because everything you do on Kittle
comes in on a layer of its own and you
can use these layers to take a graphic
element on top of another element or
below so another element as well as hide
it temporarily if you're not sure you
want to use it but you don't want to
lose it in the design itself great you
created a design in Kittle and now all
you have to do is download it so just go
into the downloading options and choose
your desired DPI and file type no matter
what printable you're selling I would
recommend downloading a JPEG version
first because that's a version you can
use to create mock-ups for your Etsy
listings or listings on any other
platform as well as a PDF which is
mostly common when selling things like
coloring pages or stationary notes but a
lot of people also sell JPEG files when
it comes to wall art so you have the
option to export both as well as PNG and
SVG even though again with PNG and SVG
you'll have less options of what to do
with it because the majority of
printable items will either come as a
JPEG form or as a PDF because most
people would not need a PNG of any kind
for personal use especially when the
file weighs a lot more now let's say you
made a beautiful poster or a beautiful
full greeting card for people to buy as
a printable and print at home you can go
then to the kettle color palette option
and completely change all the colors in
your design to create a whole new design
within seconds download that one and
sell that one as well as a separate
listing or sell several variations in
the same listing to give the buyers more
options to choose from after they bought
from you okay playing around with Kittle
is just so much fun but let's get down
to business what can you actually design
using Kittle so I did make some cool
printables myself using Kittle and I
made this really really cool list so you
guys can check out if any of these
products kind of click with you and you
want to start selling them on Etsy or
maybe are selling them already on Etsy
and Kittle can be an extra tool to
create more of them starting off with
printable wall art I think that one is
an obvious and I actually created this
really cool printable wall art zombie I
find it really cool it was like a zombie
apocalypse I actually made a design for
print on a man for for that for my ax
for a sweatshirt and then I decided to
tweak it a little bit and create this
poster which is really cool and actually
even the skull with a hat came from
Kittle so I didn't have to contribute
anything that I designed myself and I
really think it's a cool poster now
while I mentioned that kiddo is so
grunge and so vintage and and it's it's
it's really really cool especially if
you're creating products for adults I
also managed to create this beautiful
wall art poster printable for kids for
nursery rooms and I think it's kind of
adorable there are just so many things
you can do with this platform when it
comes to selling printable wall art
printable greeting cards are always a
fun product to make especially when
we're heading into the holidays I think
that my printable greeting card video
with canva is like my most watched video
in this channel so I know you guys like
reading cards so when it comes to
printable greeting cards you can design
various types of greeting cards whether
you're designing a full A4 paper that
people need to fold themselves and cut
to get the card or if you're just
selling a JPEG of five by seven four by
six inches for people to go to a store
and print themselves it's actually a
beautiful thing that you can do with it
especially when you can design the
design of the card and then sort of hide
the main elements to create the back of
the design with the same background and
as an example I created this Christmas
card using Kittle I actually really like
it
I think it's really cool what do you
think and it doesn't only have to be a
greeting card because you can also
create printable postcards to sell an
Etsy or on any other platform there are
just so many options when it comes to
printables to sell on Etsy to make on
Kittle and before I get to more of these
options I would like to kindly ask you
that if you like this video or found
this content useful please hit the like
button down below because believe it or
not every time you do that it really

now my journey with Kittle printables
actually started when I wanted to create
my own printable coloring page on Kittle
actually enough to sell it I just really
like making coloring pages and coloring
them and I started off by creating this
printable coloring page which I really
liked it had this motivational quote and
it was so easy to do because all I had
to do with the text elements is just
make them white and give them a black
border which is so easy so easy and I
actually enjoyed making more of these
printable coloring pages including one
for the Chinese New Year and I have here
what do you guys think
it's 2023 year of the water rabbit and
all the elements actually came from
Kittle including the rabbit silhouette
which again the rabbit silhouette had a
color I just made it to be white and
then manually added border to it in
black and also all of these beautiful
flower elements and framing this this
entire thing was made with Kettle and I
kind of really like it I don't think
we've discussed the Chinese New Year
that much we are gonna have a video in
the next few days covering printables as
well as print on a man items to make for
2023 the first quarter so we are going
to be talking a lot about the Chinese
New Year but for those of you who didn't
know it's going to be the year of the
water rabbit I really like this coloring
page
I can't wait to do it I actually got
really cool coloring pencils some of
them are pastels some of them are
metallic so I'm really gonna have fun
with that thing and oh my God I have the
worst ADHD for literally showing you
pencils in the middle of a kettle
printable video okay so
um I actually started editing this video
um you can see by me wearing pajama now
and I went to make coffee and I realized
that I forgot to mention my favorite
printable item how is that even possible
and my favorite printable item is
actually stationary paper just the paper
where people just write something on you
know where those lines you can add a
little thank you at the bottom to make
it stationary for thank you notes or my
thoughts for the day or my gratitude for
the day and it's a really really awesome
product I made it with Kittle actually
very easy because I didn't even use the
lines I wanted to make sure that the
spacing would be identical so I just
chose a font and clicked on that lower
dash and just multiplied it a million
times to create these beautiful lines
that all have the same spacing that's
beautiful full background and a bit of a
flower and I also put it in a mock-up
even though it's less clear in a mock-up
and that mock-up was from place it so
sorry for the change of scenery and this
is so embarrassing and let's get back to
the rest of the list another product
that you can make that is going to be
extremely popular for 2023 is printable
planners whether it's a weekly planner a
monthly planner you can create a full
set of this and this is an example of
one of mine I don't know if you like it
or not it's a weekly planner there is
days here and the notes and of course
those unique fonts that Kittle have as
well as the background here that is sort
of behind the main areas and that was
with Kittle textures and I really really
really like this design you can also
create habit trackers you can also
create printable calendars there are
seriously so many types of pages that
you can create with Kittle meant for
printables that people can use to
organize their lives or plan for the new
year and it is going to be a rather big
thing a big big thing I feel like so
many people are talking about recession
and how it's going to affect sales of
certain things however whenever we see
recession we see people buying more and
more the things that they need to feel
better about themselves to get organized
about themselves and printables are
definitely going to be on the rise and
we know that because one of the biggest
print and demand platforms Zazzle just
started making printables so we
definitely know that people are going to
want to save money and are going to want
to buy printables and if we can create
printables to add that aspect of
organization of motivation of
inspiration to people's lives I really
do believe that these are going to be
trending in 2023 but this is just you
know my humble opinion another product
that you can make is printable bookmarks
and that product was actually fun for me
to make because I was using that effect
of flipping a layer like a photo to the
under layer above it but I don't think
it's really clear with this mock-up so
let me show you how it looks on my
designer on Kittle it was really really
fun making it it took a little bit of
time for me you know to get used just do
it just to try to structure it within
the design but I feel like that time
that you put in to try and do something
new sort of you know you get that time
back later on because you learn how to
do it faster for the next few times and
you don't have to rely on templates to
create a design ending up with a more
unique design yourself rather than
everybody selling the same canva
templates for their printables now we
have all of these products and I'm
pretty sure that you guys can come up
with more ideas but where can we sell
these products well the first thing that
comes to mind when people say printables
is obviously Yeti because so many people
are selling different types of
printables on Etsy for years and it has
been going well however you don't have
to sell on it so you can also sell on
your own shop whether it's with Shopify
or woocommerce or a platform like pay
him I actually sell digital download
files on my payhip store which is
maytribe.com different elements that you
guys can use for commercial purposes you
will find all of these graphic elements
some of them are actually free some of
them are huge bundle boxes that cost
like I don't know five or six dollars of
Graphics that you can use for commercial
purposes for everything so that means
that if you need a little bit more
graphic elements on what Kittle has to
offer hop into matribe.com where you can
find all of these bundle boxes download
several of these elements whether
they're for Christmas whether they are
for Easter whether they're for
Valentine's I have like animal elements
I have different patterns and you can
use them when you're making Kittle
designs to be sold as printables you
have have my permission to use them for
commercial purposes for printables and I
hope that this thing helps you out a
little bit more there is no continuous
license when it comes to this you don't
have to keep buying bundle boxes to have
the license once you get one bundle box
you can use everything in it for print
MN or for printables and I think that
this can help you create more Unique
Designs than just going and using what
everybody's using from canva now I will
be making more bundle boxes in the next
few months there will be a special
bundle box for Valentine's Day there
will be a special bundle box for Easter
so make sure to follow up on this
channel as well as the maytribe.com
bundle boxes if you guys want those
little bit of extra Graphics that are
more unique and generally more specific
to viewers of this channel I make all of
them with procreate myself so you can be
sure that no one's going to come at you
with copyright's claim I feel like I'm
very charged when it comes to copyrights
in the last few days or weeks because I
do know that so many people who have
used elements from canva and from
creative fabric I actually got suspended
from various platforms because turn
turns out they couldn't have used these
elements for commercial purposes or even
the person selling them on Creative
Fabrica didn't have the license for them
which is completely terrifying to me so
I try as much as I can to just create my
own art using procreate and if I can
share it with you guys why not going
back to talking about Pay Here pay hip
actually costs zero dollars a month and
you'll pay five percent commission for
any item sold if it's digital but you
can also opt into pay pay hip a
membership fee and your commission will
go down there is a link down below to
sign up for payhip Shopify is going to
cost you a minimum of 29.99 a month and
when it comes to having your own
woocommerce website in order to sell
digital downloads you're just gonna have
to pay for the domain and for hosting
I'm seriously thinking about trying to
do one of these websites myself you can
also combine pay hip with a WordPress
website of your own and sell pay hip
products directly on WordPress which is
super cool and there's actually a
tutorial about that as well as a full
tutorial about pay hip itself if you
guys want to go and check it out there
will be a link to both of these videos
and to every single video I mentioned
here Down Below in the description
another up and coming shop Builder to
sell digital downloads online is
jimmy.so I have yet to make a video
about Jimmy I know I promise to make a
video so many times they're really cool
I'm checking them out I want to make a
full video about their links and maybe
next year I will do on the downloads
because again this year there are so
many more videos to cover in November
however if you do go to jimmy.so and
start playing around with the system
yourself you'll find out that they have
a limited free account for a website
with like two pages and it costs nine
dollars a month to have a store on Jimmy
which is nothing because this platform
has so many unique abilities when it
comes to the design drag and drop it's
really a simple platform to use as well
as with so many templates and if you
guys want to end 2022 with a bang and
with your own demi.so website for your
digital downloads and printables using
Kittle or using whatever feel free to
enjoy a little bit of a discount for me
just a little bit like 50 discount with
more details on that in the description
down below let's move on to the last
topic of today's video which is pricing
because you know money money money and
how much is it gonna cost me so Kittle
has a free plan however it is very
limited there is a limit to the size of
the file that you can download as well
as you can only have 10 designs at the
same time and you have to attribute
Kittle whenever you do want to sell
anything which I don't think none of us
actually want to do when we sell
printables no offense Kittle cattle Pro
is going to cost you 15 a month or 120 a
year if you purchased the annual
membership and kill expert is going to
cost you 30 a month or two hundred and
eighty eight dollars a year you are more
than welcome to just use kittlepro I
think it's fairly sufficient and for the
price of ten dollars a month for a tool
that can do all of this it's actually
quite of a bargain Kettle Pro is limited
to one gigabyte of storage but so far I
don't think a lot of people will reach
it especially if they use only things
from the cable platform and if you start
with kill Pro and you see that you need
that little extra storage space you can
always upgrade to Kittle expert now
there are many unique abilities for the
kill platforms when it comes to
designing printables to sell online I
feel like
I feel like even though it has less
elements to use sometimes having less
elements makes me more targeted or
focused as well as I don't know if all
of the elements on canva are for
commercial purpose and I rather use
elements that I know that I can use for
myself whether I created them or you
guys if you purchase the bundle boxes
and I feel like that when Kittle have
this like really easy license to sell
printables as well as try to explain it
to YouTubers to explain to you guys it's
really all on the up and up and it makes
me feel more relaxed when it comes to
opening a business online because I
don't want anyone to go through the
hassle of uploading something they
thought they can use and end up you know
getting banned from a platform because
they use something they shouldn't that
just such a heartbreak especially after
you pour yourself into a business and
you want to do everything correctly and
you want to do everything legally that's
something that is really important to me
personally oh my god I've been talking
for 43 minutes
I don't know how how much like time this
video is running
but obviously you know my videos are
longer when I make them before editing
I'm so thirsty I love this I run salty
yogurt now while it is amazing that I
can make printables like these on Kittle
selling printables has a lot more than
just creating the actual printable
because I have to either take a photo of
this for Etsy or create the listing
images for Etsy which a lot of times
people feel more comfortable doing it
with canva and let me tell you this you
can do this with a free candle
membership so for those of you who can
afford only Kittle Pro or canva Pro
every single month for the next year I
really recommend going into canva and
seeing if you actually need the pro
account to do all of the activities that
you're doing with canva because a lot of
times you'll find out that if you take
your design to a better design platform
and use canva just for creating the
listing images or even videos you can
use canva free you don't actually have
to pay for the pro version just a
thought there and you can also create
your listing images or mock-ups using a
website like place it and play around
with it I really do need to make more
mock-up videos I really do or if you're
selling something that is small to print
I recommend printing it at home or at a
print shop one so you can have physical
photos of it and even when it comes to
marketing because you know
I can actually color it if I was selling
coloring pages I can color it and video
that and that would be like a marketing
thing or to print it out just to see
that the quality does come out good and
that you did everything correctly that
you didn't design something too big or
too small or too blurry on your end as a
designer I hope that you enjoyed this
little recap of Kittle and printables
and as I said I really want to make a
full tutorial of Kittle printables for
Etsy or for any other platform go ahead
to the community Tab and vote on the
poll which product would you like me to
design first as a printable for Kittle
in the next few days and with that being
said and with a little bit of bloopers
at the end thank you so much for
watching have an amazing Monday an
amazing week and I'll see you guys in my
next video bye can you hear the chair
moving it's making so much noise do you
see this
