We'll touch upon color matching, Pantones, digital and screen printing, indexed mode in Photoshop, color reducing in Illustrator, the process in CMYK for stationery and RGB for textiles.

This is so interesting! I didn't know any of this. Very grateful for the information. Many thanks!
Very glad it was useful! 😊
This was super helpful! Thank you! So if you have a beautiful piece of watercolor art, like your Hope Floral pattern, that does not need to be color reduced because it will be printed via Spoonflower, how do you recolor it to create other colorways? Do you have to use one of the more advanced software programs that you mentioned?
Correct - no need to color reduce in the strict sense of the word. It can be recolored in Photoshop by creating layers for each color using lasso and magic wand and then recoloring them using Saturation, Hue and Color Balance settings!
Hi Darya! Did you finally get monetised? 😊
Yes! 💰💰😄🙏🏼 Made $16 so far! ☝🏼
Wonderful!!! ❤ Congratulations!!! I have played all the ads hoping you had been monetised! There was the strangest ad about Chuck Norris and his family 😂 It was 14 minutes long 😂😂
@@veronicainchauspe1673 oh my goodness, thank you so much, Veronica! 🙏🏼 Don't torture yourself that long 😄 I'm, honestly, playing videos with ads from a different account just to see what kind of experience people are getting 😅 Monetization is a whole new journey! Those ads were super weird as well 😄 I can't choose which ads would be playing, just disable some topics, but they are all very general like "health and supplements"...
All good 😂
