Yep, made this in Canva!
Canva
Gone are the days when only experts in complex programs like Photoshop could create stunning custom images! Canva brings image editing and graphic design to the masses with their simple platform and tons of templates. Remove backgrounds, design icons, customize colors….all easy as pie with Canva.
Splurge for the Pro level, you won’t regret it - this unlocks soooo many stock images you’ll never have to pay for another photo.
Squarespace
Drag and Drop editing? Native eCommerce and Blogging? Simple to customize? Yes, please!
To build and host your website, Squarespace has it all. Work with me, a Squarespace Circle Developer, to unlock the full potential of your new website.
LastPass
If I had a nickel for every website password I’ve forgotten, I would have….let’s just say a LOT of nickels. Enter LastPass, the secure online password vault I use every single day. I’ve been using this tool for years, and can honestly say I would be lost without it.
Eye Dropper Color Picker
Ever wondered how people match colors from logos, site, or branding? I’ll let you in on the secret weapon I use: Eye Dropper Color Picker extension for Chrome. Offered by eyedropper.org, this handy tool lets you click any web object to reveal the color codes you need for a perfect match. Great for aligning your brand colors in Canva 😉
Elfsight
No-code widgets can add helpful features to your site with minimal effort. One of my favorites is the Google Reviews integration from Elfsight.
Also, Canva ❤️
So there you have it!
