I've been certified in graphic design for over 10 years and I’m a full time blogger that specializes in combining my knowledge of graphic design with online marketing to create better social media graphics, lead magnets, and digital products that are currently helping tens of thousands of bloggers grow their online businesses.
Six months after launching Simplifying DIY Design I had replaced my full time income and in less than 2 years I had generated over six-figures in digital product sales alone. Since my very first product launch I was approached by bloggers of all sizes asking if I had an affiliate program.
Since then, I've had the amazing opportunities share my templates and design knowledge with many audiences. I've been invited to travel, speak virtually, guest appear in memberships and other online communities as well as podcasts.
Templates are my JAM and my passion is to create design tools and systems that you can use to implement your way to success in your digital business! I look forward to working with you to share those designs with the audience you worked hard to build!

** PLEASE NOTE **
Kara does not run back-to-back promotions. Simplifying DIY Design typically runs one promotion per month. If asking Kara to participate in something she's required to share with her audience, your request may be denied or delayed due to our promotional schedule.
SEND A COLLABORATION REQUEST
Kara's graphic design skills were a game changer for our blog. Her eye for colors, appreciation for details and an understanding of the blogging and marketing world made for eye catching graphics, increased exposure, professional messaging and increased revenue.
Rosemarie from The Busy Budgeter
When it comes to making graphics the hardest part for me is starting with a blank page. Kara’s templates are a life saver. They give you a starting point to jump off from. And then once I get started the ideas start flowing and I create beautiful products I could have only dreamed about.
