“Now that we are at the end of the course, I hope you have enjoyed the journey. I want to thank you for getting this far and for spending your time with me. It's time to share your creations and show your project's progress. Comment on how you made it, discuss the challenges and difficulties you faced, and how you overcame them. In short, share your experience. I want your project to be different from mine. Repeat what I do to learn, but when making your project to publish, create something unique. This enriches our creative community. Gather your images and share your project by clicking the button "Create your project" . Your publication will become part of your portfolio on Domestika. Your portfolio is your showcase to the world to display your talent. Remember, explaining the project is crucial, not just showing photos. Here are some links to help you organize it: Support link 1 Support link 2 These are our recommendations: 1. Choose a brand that you feel fits your style and would love to work for and make a sketch. Try out a few color options. Colors can make or break a visual, in our opinion. Don't use too many colors, but try to reuse the same color for more than one element. 2. When the sketch is done, it's time to start designing. You can continue to the next step if you want to use the existing templates. You can choose to make the designs in Illustrator or by hand with pencil and paper. 3. Trace and cut all the paper elements. Now, it's time to start crafting them together. Please be patient, and remember you don't have to make all the elements; focus on the elements you like the most first. 4. Now everything is made and ready for photography. Set up your set and use your preferred light source and a camera you like to work with. Play around with the elements until you feel the composition feels right and you're happy with how everything looks. 5. After the photography, it's time for Photoshop to enhance your visuals. When the editing is complete, you can show your piece on social media or on your website. Another way to promote your work is via a newsletter; in that case, make sure it looks a little personal. Good luck! I invite you to participate in the forum and interact by commenting on the community's work. After all, we will help each other, so take advantage of this opportunity! See you in the forum!”

“Thank you so much for following the course. I hope you enjoyed it. But before you go, we would love to share some tips with you. Please keep in mind that it takes time and perseverance to grow. Don't be afraid to fail and don't hesitate to aim for your dreams. Please remember, you don't have to spend a lot of money on tools and special materials to make your paper craft. A bamboo straw or a chopstick can get you a long way if you want to curl or curve or use it for other paper techniques. By using the handles that we teach in this course to structure your workflow, this can really help incr...”
