Sing a Song of Sixpence, But Make It Birdsong!
Hi there! Silvia here. I’m not sure about you, but I absolutely adore listening to birds sing. It could be any time – morning, noon, or night. Yet, astonishingly, there are folks out there who aren’t fans of our feathered friends’ choruses. I really can’t fathom why. Do they want to program the birds? Perhaps they’d prefer to clear all the trees and shrubs to stop birds from settling? Really, people! And sure, birds do make a mess at times, but hey, nobody’s perfect.
OK, a bit of a rough start today, but let’s switch gears. We share this planet with animals, insects, and yes, even the neighbors we never got to choose (speaking of neighbors, oh, how many stories I have about!). We can’t just edit out the bits and bobs of life that irk us – I mean, there are plenty of things (and people!) that get on my nerves, but you don’t see me drafting drastic measures against them. LOL.

A Little Birdie Told Me: Tips and Tricks for Design
If you’re new to working with illustrations, here are a few pointers:
- Keep it balanced: Make sure your text stands out against the background without overpowering the artwork.
- Color me happy: Adjust the colors to complement the mood of your project. Soft, muted tones can convey tranquility, while brighter shades might inject energy and vibrancy.
- Vector or raster? Decide based on your project needs. Vectors are great for scaling to different sizes without losing quality, perfect for larger prints or signage.
