+ always adjust your brightness. too bright aesthetic sometimes can spoil what are you trying to express in your works. adding psds for ps user is appliable and great too
+ avoid from using braggy or blurred PNG. this will lower down your graphic quality at the same time the bright pastel color you put in your graphic will be easily notified
+ if you're out of background stock, try to blur the backgrounds a bit using picsart or any editing apps. this method will make your character more outstanding in general
+ right font is a must √ avoid using calligraphic fonts because fonts that doesn't match with the cover is a major problem in one's work. just make sure that before you downloaded a font, please refer to their type whether it's calligraphic or brush or whatever
+ avoid using too "complicated" looking background. yes, simple graphics can sometimes be dark themed but using one or two layers of png is enough as long as it defy blends
+ don't take too much time in your works, relax for a minute and make yourself a cup of hot chocolate. of you run out of ides try to look out of your window and watch the sky. who knows inspiration might come, am i right?
+ some PNGs of leaves, flower, borderline and a colored background is simply easy and save times.
+ if you think that your background is too blank, try to decorate them with sub PNGs like paper cranes, paper clouds, mini patterns or doodles. but make sure that the PNGs will look more outstanding than the background and your main PNG as the most outstanding and the first front of your graphic, make it visible! <33
+ avoid in using dark colors too. since you're going to make a pastel graphic, using the right and bright colors like pink, bleach peach, pale orange, sky blue or magenta is recommended.
+ colored b&w png like manga characters can be used too, just add some PNGs by the back and your title/ or add some borderline
