Hi,

I had to ask this, because I truly don’t know. Is the Papercut trend something Zazzle may be A/B testing, or going to come out with soon? Or is Zazzle just saying that it’s a trend?
Or are paper punches coming out? Both would be two great products to work with!

Hi @LauraLee - Great question! The papercut trend is just an overall look/aesthetic we are seeing. We’d love to see more designs from our community that mimic the look of papercut!

Hi Heather_B,

Good to know. :wink:

@Heather_B One of the links at the bottom leads to a store and not creator’s guide

The Baby Shower Guide should lead to Baby Shower Creator Guide | Zazzle and not Playbook: Designs & Collections on Zazzle

Thanks!

Thank you for flagging! I updated it.

Hllo @LauraLee how are
What are the mistakes that a new designer and seller should avoid?

Like any designs I avoid or any product because no one will pay attention to it also if you have advice for me what is the most advice you will give it to me

Hi Keuesam1

I’m fine, but I would like to say that this original post was something that potentially can help you with your question(s).

First, it’s one of multiple guides that Zazzle puts out there for us to use. They point to design strategies and styles that they see are trending from their point of view. So, they’re very helpful and inspiring. I don’t think anyone can tell you what not to make or avoid, other than that of trademark and copyright.

It is recommended here, especially now, to promote your products. One will never know if it will sell, if it’s never seen. So that’s my advice, use the forums for all the Show Me threads to share your designs. Use any social media you want to promote yourself. That’s what we’re all doing. :slightly_smiling_face:

Good luck!

Thank you to much @LauraLee it’s really helpful​:revolving_hearts:
