Hellz yeah! Thanks for taking the quiz!

I took the Graphic Design Course first. It completely unstuck me. Like, mentally. Creatively. Existentially. I started letting go of the "right way" and leaned hard into the weird side of my design brain. Then I took the Squarespace Design Course because I was already deep in it and figured, why stop now? It made sense — I’d just built a whole brand in the GDC, and now I needed somewhere to actually put it. The two courses were a match made in heaven.

My favorite thing about the course was learning about graphic design in a fun way that ilovecreatives offer. Puno created such a fun way of learning that is digestible and easy to understand since it's all online and self-paced. I never felt overwhelmed or stressed out. Also, Mindy and Sarah really care and give such great feedback, you don't feel alone while taking this online course.

Without formal education on graphic design and being a perfectionist by nature, I had impostor syndrome. But this course showed me how to manage it. Puno was extremely supportive and encouraging every step of the way and addressed all those creative blocks with great empathy and insight in her videos. Also, I learned how to be disciplined and resilient and not to give up given that the course is self-paced and there were many moments in my journey I succumbed to self doubt and self criticism.

I loved every part of the course, but my favourite part had to be Section 2, where we really dug into the design process—both strategically and creatively—to create our ✨dream✨ spec brand. Learning Puno's full process for building a strong brand identity, from doing a brand audit to delivering in-depth brand guidelines, was so helpful. It really strengthened my work and made me feel much more confident in creating branding—an area I’m excited to focus on more!

I felt like I was guided through all the right steps of how to present a design project. Each section really helped me understand the flow and process from designing to presenting to finances all while letting my creativity shine! I'd highly recommend taking this course because of how easy the sections are to follow, and you can make great projects all the while!
