In this video I want to teach you how to use Kittl to make a design
for a topic that they may not have a template for. Let's go!!
Thanks for joining me on this video. My name Is Juna with Detour Shirts. I've been designing and
selling T-shirts online since 2005 and in this video I wanted to teach you how to use Kittl.
More specifically using Kittl templates for topics that they may not have now. They have a lot of
topics on there but they're in beta and of course they're they'll keep adding stuff in more stuff
like that but when I went on there they didn't really have topics for St Patrick's Day and so
in January if you look at this video right here you'll notice that on the January calendar I did
a one of the things on there was to do t-shirts for St Patrick's Day and I had a little saying on
there fill in the blank one lucky blank so we're gonna use that right there to create a design for
St Patrick's Day and I'm going to use a template on Kindle to do it so I'm not going to start from
scratch and you can do this with any template I'm gonna just pick one and show you how I pick it and
then how I change things up kiddos really cool with all those templates on there and of course
they're going to add more and more I'm sure in the future they're going to have lots of St Patrick's
Day designs and lots of other holiday designs but for right now they don't so I'm going to show you
how to do it using another template so let's get into kiddo right now and I'll show you what I mean
all right so here we are on kiddl.com kittl.com right here They're in beta
this is their home page and you can see tons of templates right I love how when you come
on here every week every day it looks a little different because they keep adding
more and more stuff this is really cool and I love all the different styles too you can
see there's this kind of style like vintage style and then you got uh you know more more
cartoony style and things like that right so pretty cool so if you haven't ever been
to Kittle this is it I'm gonna show you what I mean by not having St Patrick's Day so I'm
just gonna do St Patrick's Day hopefully they didn't add one in the last hour or so but uh
all right so not really I typed in St Patrick's Day and you can see there's
nothing for St Patrick's Day yet uh depending on when you're watching this video maybe maybe
there is but right now as I'm on here there isn't so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go to t-shirts
and then I'm gonna look through it and kind of see um what I'm gonna use as a template
as a starting point for my St Patrick's Day oh I better unclick St Patrick's Day
and then t-shirts perfect so what I'm going to use is the phrase one lucky blank I'm gonna do
one lucky mama just to make it simple I could be one lucky Dad one lucky Grandma one lucky
whatever this is a scalable design that I put on there uh in my uh 2023 calendar if you don't have
that already make sure to go to the downloads I have it on sale right now for only a dollar lots
of good information there it's really to help you with 2023 so I'm looking for a style because it's
three words maybe look for something with three words or so or something that I can see putting
in like one lucky Mom okay so this one has a football and that's okay we can switch out the
design but we could say one lucky mom that would work let me see what else we got here
you know that would be cool of course we wouldn't want something like this where it's just too many
words right so we're looking for something that would work and where we can maybe switch out the
design let me see if there's anything here this one would be cool one lucky mom there's three
words right so let's see if there's anything else there's lots of them I'm looking for one
um maybe that says lucky on it that could really help let's see I think I've seen one before
but again we could use a ton of these ones I'm going to scroll down a little bit more and see
in fact one thing you could do is just type in the word lucky so let's let's try that too
so again I could use any one of those I'm going to scroll up here and just type in search lucky
see what we got ah very cool so we got a couple of these this one doesn't look like a t-shirt this
one could be a t-shirt it does have the word mom so I could do uh one lucky mom here that could be
really cool and then I got lucky here so it says lucky Queen I can use that to say one lucky use
that word lucky instead of Queen I could change that to Mom so click on it use this design as it
pulls up the first thing we want to do is change the size let's come over here go to settings and
type in 4500 by well let's change this to pixels first I forgot to do that pixels all
right you can see how small it is in pixels but we want forty five hundred by fifty four hundred
and hit confirm so you can see it was so much smaller I'm going to grab the whole thing and
just size it up everything on here is um scalable so real easy to do all right I know I want lucky
I'm going to take off this texture first it's just going to get in the way so I'm going to move that
I'll bring it back later let's see this bingo I like this font that's BB bouquet BB book kit
um maybe what I'm gonna do is I'm going to take this queen I'm going to make a BB bouquet
instead of made in Orange I just like I like thicker fonts
and we could say one lucky Queen one lucky plank right so we're gonna do Mama all caps
uh maybe take away the Bingo letters and let's do that go easy
um move this lucky down here I'm holding down option and scrolling this up so I have Mama
on the top but I'm gonna say one instead of that and let's see see really easy I'm gonna make one
a little smaller put in the middle here maybe make lucky bigger Lucky from edge to edge and that fits
perfect I'm going to move some of these guys out of the way they're grouped so ungroup is command G
and that that guy's grouped oh that might be cool up here let's see what else we got
I'll move these guys up here too just out of the way all right oh mama and lucky
look at that perfect one lucky mama so easy right
um but I don't want the Bingo on here so I'm going to take that out um maybe make this bigger let's
boom all right uh let's move this all down well that's all of it I'm just gonna you can scroll it
like that and then good we're just gonna give it some height I think this will be good right there
great looking good let's see what other Graphics
they have for lucky so I'm gonna go here to elements just type in the key
what do we got lucky foot lucky yeah that's kind of cool uh lucky cards
kind of neat huh I I mean we could use some of these but I don't see anything that like really
like I want to put so maybe let's let's do clover
I like these a lot better so maybe I'm gonna remove this guy and this guy this guy and then do
a clover so maybe uh I don't know something that's uh that turns this one this one's kind of cool
actually like the I think this yeah this one I like that one better because it has
I like the the play you know with that in there so the white space so I'm gonna
do that we'll move this guy and maybe I'm going to option and drag and maybe
that one's like that but this one's turned so I'm going to flip it right click on my
mouse flip horizontal you know maybe make this bigger I don't know playing with it like that
I think that's pretty cool all right and we can add more if we want like we could let's
try another one like make this smaller right and then turn it around like that
see what I'm doing there just kind of filling the space right maybe this one fills the space here
I don't know maybe that's too many
cool um let's see what else could we put here um I'd like maybe some dice yeah okay let's do this
okay so we're just filling the speeds I had some space down here right because I took
away the Bingo cards and cool you see how that like that's an original design right so from
what we had before now one thing about one lucky mama here is it's going to be a St Patrick's Day
shirt so we may want to do it on a black shirt or maybe even a green shirt so I'm going to come in
here my background uh can be green like this um that's a light green maybe a darker green
you know maybe like that I'm just eyeballing it from from there maybe green
all right so now we gotta change everything to match this green shirt so what we could
do is we could uh change this to White just pull it up like that I don't know
if I want the drop shadow on here let's see what it looks like when I change the angle
I mean that's kind of cool let's see what it looks like when we uh change the color
colors to it to White and maybe maybe this is green too like a lighter green let's see
I don't know that's kind of tough let's try to move it in the back send to back
cool move it up like that uh one let's see what it looks like without the texture on
here we take that out and then just you know make that white too yeah not bad
um I think these stars are kind of cool it's white I mean you can play with all the colors here
uh maybe this would be good like a light green like that green right there let's see
yeah why not change all these that we want like two or three colors right so
that could be cool
let's see um and for the dice I kind of want it to break the
top here like that and let's make these white too
and maybe so we got black I wonder if this looks good in white that's kind of cool
uh I wonder if instead of black we do we do a green too like maybe an even darker green
I don't know
that's kind of cool stand out
yeah all right let's pick that same green here cool and this is the background
you know that could work let's see what it looks like on a black shirt
oh I don't know about that drop shadow let me so we can just take that off
yeah let's keep it simple all right and then maybe move these guys up
cool one lucky mama I don't know let's try the try this in green I know dice
usually aren't green but let's see what it looks like just to have the same colors
White maybe that could work all right let's change this back to uh instead of black the the green
dark green color and see yeah I mean that could that could work on a green I'm sure cool let's
add [Music] um what do we say texture again um I like doing the like the light one right here
yeah and then we're gonna do uh Alpha mask and then make sure we clip the content
yeah oh no that's looking funky Let's uh see what else we got here
oh I like that one yeah that's pretty cool one lucky Mama cool so all we have to do now to use
that for a t-shirt is we come here we'll export it and make sure 4 500 5400 pixels 72 DPI I
mean you could change it but then that's going to change that so let's just just leave it it's fine
and then remove background right remove that green it's going to be on a green t-shirt optimize
quality yes PNG yes and here we go simple as that now so now I have a design that I can use for St
Patrick's Day and of course I can come out here and like change this instead of Mama I can do dad
right and it still work and I could stretch this out even make it bigger
you know it works for a different person I know I have a second sure one lucky Dad one lucky son
one lucky Grandma one lucky like change it right so um I like one lucky Mama though there we go I
just did command Z there to back it up and let's see what it looks like uh what it knocked out one
lucky mama you can see it's knocked out it has the gray here and we can use this on any of the
shirts that we want let me show you what it looks like on Amazon when I upload it on Amazon so here
we are on Amazon I uploaded it you can see it knocked it out let's see what colors it looks
good on so let's see asphalt gray yeah looks pretty cool it's kind of big right so we can
size it down we made it the full size so that we have the option to scale it down I'm going
to scale it down to like that right there um black looks great I think cranberry red looks
great of course we want the green and I think we have a couple of greens we have the olive green
we have uh blue that's fine red oh that's kind of tough but we'll leave it brown
uh grass green of course turn that off it doesn't work on white I can't see it on white right
uh the gray I think we already have that gray so this is good and then
I'm going to pick all my other colors but you can see it looks really cool I'm gonna
um take out the guide so you can see it there you go on green and on um kelly green too and even on
black I think blacks looks really cool for that so there it is super simple I did it within minutes
right and and just think how many of these you can make in one day um you know we got the template
took me what 15 minutes so for an hour uh you got eight hours in the day that maybe you you're
doing t-shirts four times eight 32 a day like you can you can crank these out right so pretty cool
especially if you did one lucky Mama one lucky dad and one lucky like you can do that that would take
seconds right so you can do a lot of these um um merch by Amazon or Amazon merch on demand would
be the one to do the scale design so I wouldn't do all the scale designs on Redbubble or T public
maybe some but it's not built for them like Amazon is built for scaling design so have fun with this
uh this is super easy tutorial hopefully you don't have to copy this but you can see use a template
um switch out the letters and everything in there you go so that is it for this video thanks so much
for watching hopefully this video is super helpful for you you can see how you can go from template
to design final design in a matter of minutes real easy with kiddo and they're going to keep adding
more and more templates and the design that you're going to pick the templates are kind of going to
be a base of your design so look for one that you like the style of and then change the words
and stuff and you can see I changed it a lot in the colors and everything so hopefully this
was really helpful for you if it was make sure to give it a thumbs up it really helps in the
algorithm and if you're not subscribed already and you want to see more of these make sure to
