I'm a communication design student in the 5th semester. And honestly I really do learn a lot more about design from your videos than I did in my entire degree. You're such a great inspiration. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! And pls never stop doing what you do.

Abi you are amazing!!!! I would never ever be able to learn design essentials by myself if you didn't do these videos! I am learning so so much!!!! Thank you!! I am studying e-learning at university and I want to learn how to design everything (like icons) for e-learning-programs by myself. I Think it's a huge plus when you are able to design everything beautifully.

Babe you've literally just taught me more about illustrator than a full year of my graphic design classes. Thanks a million omg

[fatmadesigns]

I love her inspiring attitude! She is just simply the best design instructor in the whole wide world. Lots of love, Abi. :)

[hibaz]

Loved it! I'm about to start working on type manipulation for a client so this came at a great time lol. I usually gravitate towards the blob brush tool instead of the pencil tool when making customizations

[jasminehinds]

You are teaching me so much! I’m a second year graphic design student. Such helpful videos thank you! X

[annatorres]

So helpful as always Abi. Feels like I learn more from you than I do in my graphic design classes ♡

[indirainnes]

This video is amazing! Thanks for the consistently great and inspiring content.

[desanwatson]

I really don't know if thank you is a good enough word to use to express how much I appreciate your videos. Many persons have skills, but only few know how to teach others that skill.

[mariamangion]

Abi is the sweetest person in the whole wide world ❤️ Her attitude just inspires me and I always see a smile on her face. Love your videos and never forget how proud of you I am 🥺💫

[Kallah_DaughterOfYAHUAH]

This (and a lot of your other videos) inspires me to customize font WAY MORE often!

[chantellerichardson]

Abi! I really love your videos. I can tell how much thought you put into each video and the skills you teach in each video is invaluable! I am been wanting to get better at logos this year, as I feel it is my weak point in my business, and your tips and tricks have been incredibly helpful. Thank you thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

[cholzdelrosario]

Thank you for this short informative video. I feel so overwhelm of trying it out but now I think I can do it because on how simple you explain things . ❤

[katiacarneiro]

You are the best!! Thanks a lot for this video, I've been struggling for so long because it's been a while that I don't use illustrator and I forgot the shortcuts and exact tools that I need

[vitoriabarrbosa]

I have such a tough time trying to customize typography for my branding projects. Thank you so much for this, your videos are always helpful 💖

[iamJustJaz]

You don't know how much I NEEDED this! Thank you so much! This was very helpful! Love your content Abi!

[somemoriesneverfade]

So this 64 year old just learned a ton of stuff in about 12 minutes!!! You are a great instructor! Thank you for sharing!

[Reinrosannir]

Ive been watching your videos and i've always wondered what tools you were using to achieve your ideas. This video is a godsend because this answers all my questions so thank you :)

[djhaulix]

Best things that I have learned today. Thank you soo much for the amazing content.I also noticed your hard work on creating this video such as shooting yourself to showcase that you are working wiht your computer, the spects and seriousness in your face made the video more interesting; also showing yourself typing on the keyboard and mouse with blur effect also was good. Motion graphic is also is in next level. Thanks a ton for all the amazing ticks.
