Sometimes I feel that I have made a mistake with deciding to go into graphic design but seeing how well you're doing always reassures me! Looking forward to the higher amount of uploads after March!

The production level of Abby’s videos has always stood out to me — I truly appreciate the effort and dedication as well as value her content provides. Keep up the awesome work, will always support her and her channel 🫶

[darronjonesii]

This taught me more than years of college! Thank Abi!

If I would describe your channel in one word it would be COZY!! Thank you for bringing so much happiness into my life! I’ve been watching you since I was 21 years old and now, I’m 23 years old and still here! Thank you for inspiring me for that long (and counting) 🥹I’ll always support you & your dreams 🤍🦋

[raikhan]

thank you for everything you do, genuinely. its so rare to see designers follow through on processes when they don't have to and your time and editing is soooo much appreciated in helping us get a better understanding of how things work. i hope you're able to take care of yourself!! thank you again :)

Your channel has been so helpful for my journey <3 I've actually started designing again (after a near 2 year hiatus due to other stuff). And your channel has been crucial. From just filling those youtube doom-scroll minutes, to actually explaining and helping with things I'm unsure of. Thank you so much!

I discovered and subscribed to your channel a month ago and I love it so much ! Everything is so clear, thorough, and well-detailed each time. As an aspiring graphic designer who keeps learning and perfecting her skills daily I feel like have learned so much so far although I still have a long road ahead of me ! Thanks for providing such great resources and I definitely enjoy your videos and learn so much from them! I can't wait for your next video !☺

Nice design and process!
The reason why you see most competitors using the brown cardboard box with a single color print is simple - cost.
While stunning, your design will likely triple the cost per box because it is a multi-color double-sided print. It also means the packaging is less sustainable since it uses way more ink.
Usually you see this type of premium packaging design in retail packaging, where it's a lot more important to stand out amongst the crowd, but for wholesale/online delivery it becomes mostly unnecessary and just eats into the margins, as the purpose of the box is to protect the product during shipping.
Ultimately though it's up to the client to decide if that additional cost and the risk of being perceived to have excessive packaging is worth it.

Project Manager at a corrugated packaging company here! Love the video and how you clearly break down each step. I have watched a few of your videos and they are all very well made and give a bunch of great info; you're very talented!
Another question that may be important to ask the client is how they are going to be distributing these packages. Remember that freight/delivery is not always kind to packages... There is a potential that the lighter design may get scuffed up through transport (Kraft material wouldn't show this as much). But the beautiful print on the inside--what a lovely surprise when a customer opens up! I've seen where some designs are very basic Kraft (brown material) on the outside and white on the inside, where you can really showcase the design and make a great experience for the end user.
Another point to consider when designing for print is trap lines. If printing using flexographic technology, the orange and the pink will need a trap line--as you stated, there will be movement during the printing process. A trap line is when you bleed a lighter color into the darker color (think about 1/8 inch) so you don't have any white gaps peeking through.

One last note... "cardboard" is sort of a derogatory term in our business 😉We use the word "corrugate". Just had to share!
Would love to connect if you had any questions about printing/corrugated packaging!

Abi I just noticed the background and saw the lighting, done according to your brand so inspiring to see your dedication to all these miniature details

[theajohansen]

Thank you so much for making this video! I just got hired for my first packaging job, and I feel a lot more confident now then what I did 13 min ago

[thecatsmom]

Love to hear your thoughts on why you're not designing them in CMYK color mode? Wouldn't it affect the color when you send them off for printing?

[aymenomar]

I MISS YOU AND YOUR AMAZING VIDEOS ABI ❤

[tifukelison]

I've been asked where did I learn most of design and where do I get inspiration from!


I literally look and left and right, make sure there's enough space and look them in the eye like Bond(James Bond)😂😅 and call your name😍

Thanks Abi, You're the best

I feel you've failed to consider using the box in the real world, practical environment. Whilst the logo looks great where is it on the outer lip of the box, for most manufacturers I believe that will be the point at which the box is sealed closed and whilst clear packaging tape could be used, many sellers are preferring the eco-friendly paper tape with water activated glue, which is just going to cover the key points, at the only place that they are on the box!
