AI didn't design this. I did. It just held the pen.
I told it exactly what to include, my Frenchie, Bluey, the exact shade of pink I use everywhere, a word that actually sounds like me, not a random guess. Then I looked at what came back and decided what stayed and what got cut. That's the part people miss about AI. It's fast, but it's not making the calls. I'm still the designer, the writer, and the editor.
β¨ If you want to try it yourself, here's the exact prompt I used:
"Based on what you know about me and my interests, create a set of 8 hyper real illustrated enamel pins in a 4x5 image. 1 medium pin is a portrait of me, 1 small pin is a word that describes me, 1 small pin is my name. The style is bold, flat, bright colors, eye catching. If you don't know enough about me yet, pull cues from the photo."
Save this and try it. I would love to see your pins, tag me or drop them in the comments.
