Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 11:38 pm

If you’re anything like me, you’re always looking for ways to make your life easier and more efficient. Whether it’s finding a new way to do laundry or streamlining your grocery shopping, we are all looking for that one thing that will help us save time.

One way I have found to save time (and money!) is by using Canva.

Canva is an online design platform that is simple and easy to use – even for those of us who are not designers! With Canva, you can create beautiful designs for your blog, social media, business cards – really anything you can think of – in just a few minutes.

The best part? Canva is free! And even if you do choose to upgrade to a paid account, the prices are very reasonable.

So how can you get started with Canva? First, head over to www.canva.com and create an account.

Once you’re logged in, you’ll see a dashboard with all of the different design options available. For this quick tutorial, we’ll focus on creating a social media graphic.

PRO TIP: This tutorial may be out of date. Some features in Canva may have changed since this tutorial was made.

Click on the “Create a design” button and a new page will open up with all of the templates available. Scroll through until you find one that suits your needs or click on the “More templates” button to see even more options.

Once you’ve selected a template, you’ll be taken to the editor where you can begin customizing your design. To change the text, simply click on the text box and type in your desired copy. To change the font or color of the text, use the toolbar that appears when you click inside the text box.

To add images to your design, click on the “Uploads” tab in the left-hand sidebar and drag-and-drop your desired image into the design area. You can also search for free stock photos within Canva if you don’t have any images of your own that you want to use.

Once you’re happy with your design, simply download it by clicking on the “Download” button in the top right-hand corner and selecting your desired file format. That’s it! You’ve now created a beautiful design using Canva – all in just a few minutes!

Conclusion:

Canva is an amazing tool that can help save time and money when creating designs for your blog or social media. The best part?

It’s free! Give it a try today and see how easy and fun it is to use!
