This will allow you to make a vector image of the design. You can then change a designs colors and manipulate the image with Illustrator tools. Tracing works best with a black & white fairly simple design. ***If you really like a design that is in color - Change it to a black & white design in Photoshop first then open it in Illustrator.

Make & Expand will give you an outlined piece that can be pulled apart after it has been ungrouped. What is white on the design will be a white shape after it has been traced.

Create 5 wrapping paper designs inspired from art movements listed below:

Bauhaus

Art Nouveau

Art Deco

Cubism

Pop art

*11"x11" page size

*Include 5 Artboards to keep your designs in 1 file. Watch the setup video for this. Before uploading finished designs - save as a .PDF and then upload the PDF to the TURN IN in Teams.

Add extra width to the line of each side of a rectangle. Once the width is added, round the corners of the rectangle. Place a short word inside of the new shape. Think about how this design could be used.

Screenshot finished design and turn in.

Object/Expand Appearance is important to use once you have locked a shape or lettering and you don't want the aspect changed when you reduce or enlarge the shape. This changes a line to a shape with an inside & outside surface.

# data[].attributes.body
Using the distorted rectangle & word from Exercise 2 - follow the Expand Appearance demo to decrease the size of your design to a 1.5" sticker. Then make a grid of 6 stickers with your smaller design.

Screenshot finished design and turn in.

# data[].attributes.body
Type cannot be warped or distorted. Before we can radically distort text we need to change it to a shape. However when we do this, the wording cannot be changed. Make sure the spelling and typestyle or your text is what you want before it is locked in.

# data[].attributes.body
Type your name or 2 short words, add a line and a shape underneath. Change the words to shapes by using the Type/Create Outlines. Duplicate until you have a grid that has 7 sections that looks like the above sample.

Snip & Sketch finished design and turn in.

50 Positive Short Quotes & Sayings about Life

Remember to take things one day at a time. There is no need to rush the present for future's sake. Today is all you have right now - so just take it all in for everything it is.

I have lived with these words all throughout life like a core belief of life. It's important to have some words you always believe in, whether they are truths or not. The act of believing is a power itself.

No matter what you have gone through in the past, it has all worked out. Why shouldn't today or the future be the same? Believe these words to be true, and they will be true.

Things will always work out.

Sometimes the world can seem cold and cruel when we forget that everything has a soul and that we are all connected.

This quote comes from a more of a spiritual side of living. When it is time in your own life to duelve into spiritual growth, you will see that once you align yourself internally (mind, body, and spirit) to a certain way of being, your external world will begin to change in alignment with who you are internally.

If you'd like to learn more about spirituality, I highly recommend reading these books by Dr. Joe Dispenza:

Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself: Connects Science with Spirituality and gives background needed for his next books. Includes 1 meditation practice. This book is about how to change your mindset, especially if you have a negative thought pattern that permeates through your entire life.

Becoming Supernatural: Examples of how people changed their life through meditating (People who healed their own Stage 4 Cancer, manifested money unexpectedly, found their dream job by happenstance etc) & Includes more meditations

Dream. Then make sure to take actions towards your dreams.

If you are facing some dark days, months, or years - Please just hang in there. Don't give up.

One of the slowest, hardest, but best decision I made for my future during times like this is to seek help. Professional help is best. And even if you think there is no hope, keep trying. Be persistent and have hope, no matter how bleak or dim.

Also, I know some people cannot afford professional help, so for this, I recommend duelving into spirituality. Sometimes we forget that life isn't just about the physical and mental sides of ourselves. We also need to pay attention to the soul, the part of ourselves that is always true to ourselves and not shaped or changed by the influence of the world.

And if the above choices don't sound right, I also recommend looking into Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). It's a widely used psychological treatment targeted at changing one's thought habits, patterns, and behaviors to change the body's habitual emotional response to those stimuli (your feelings).

Stop caring about what others think and just let loose the wild side of you!

Always make room for more kindness in your life. Give kindness freely because it is the one thing we all need so dearly in life, and we are all capable of giving it without depleting ourselves. In fact, I believe it is one of the few things that replenishes both parties, the giver and the receiver.

You never know how life will change 3 months, 1 year, to 10 years from now. Believe that the best is yet to come in this ever-unfolding story of your's.

You do matter. I think we all focus too much on our importance to the world or others, but most importantly, you matter very deeply to yourself. You need you - so take care of yourself a little more, even when the days are hard.

We are all afraid and hesitant when trying something new or stepping into uncharted waters. But despite these feelings, you still have to plow through it. Do it. Ignore the fear and just take the first step. Once you start, it gets easier from there.

There are many, many perspectives to one situation. Your mindset is the eyes in which you see the world, so observe it and reflect on whether this mindset is the one for you. Does it hold you back and keep you fixed? Or does it help you expand, learn, and grow?

All that is happening right now is to prepare you for where you will be in the future. There are no failures, only learning. Everything will make perfect sense one day.

Everything takes time to grow. The most important part of growth happens before you can physically see it. Lay a solid foundation and make steady progress - Growth will be inevitable as long as you keep trying.

Such beautiful words to remind us to take care of our bodies and mind. We will always have ourselves, no matter what people or things leave our lives... And for that, I am grateful.

No one is perfect and where you are now is not the end. We are always constantly learning, evolving, and changing in both visible and unseen ways. So give yourself room to grow and make mistakes.

I find that it is during the times that are most painful for me that brings me to the brink of a major transformative period in my life. Turn your pain into power. You may not know how because I certainly didn't know how - but it will inevitably happen.

Don't wait for someone to save you, and most certainly do not expect someone else to save you. Be your own hero. It is my belief that we are all capable of rescuing ourselves - It is one of the reasons we are alive and on this journey we call life.

Make the most you can out of your days, weeks, and months. Who knows where you will be one year from now.

Your peace and well-being is important to your happiness. Protect it to the best of your ability.

It is the little things we do each day that bring peace and comfort in our lives. Let go of the heavy desires of lofty material things and enjoy the little joys of life.

You are a unique person meant to live your own unique life - So go after it.

Sometimes we rush and hurry through life in a flurry of to-do lists and tasks. Remember to take some time to be still. To rest your body and mind. Breathe and let life be a little slower.

A bit of crazy is good 😉

It's true. When I see people, I often cannot remember what color hair they have, if they wore glasses or not, or what clothes that wore. Your physical appearance does not matter as much as you believe. Your soul and energy is more visible than you think.

I often think people are beautiful without even seeing their faces. In a way, we are all more than just human beings - And that in itself is a beautiful thing, without question.

I hope you enjoyed this collection of short quotes and sayings to bring inspiration and motivation to your days.

I hope you have a wonderful day or night wherever you may be and until next time <3
