This is literally where you start!

If you do not already have a Canva account, point your browser to this link which will take you to Canva, where you sign up. It's free forever if you choose, otherwise, you may want to explore the Pro version.

My link up there is an affiliate link. You do not pay more, but I earn a small commission when you use my link to purchase the pro subscription.

If you already have a Canva account you do not need to click this link at all.

In this module, I will explain to you everything on the home screen, where to go and what to expect.

This module is NOT for you if you've been using Canva for a while already. But, hang on ... there may be something that makes you go a-ha ... I didn't know that. So do give it a glance over!

Come magnify your productivity with Canva's Magic suite of apps.

Bring your ideas to life: whether it's designs, videos, images, graphics ... Canva has thought of it all!

This is probably what you have been waiting for.

All of Canva's many features are explained. You will also have some of my very own workarounds as Canva can be a bit cumbersome at times.

Creating designs is personal to each of us. We have our branding to consider and our own style - which forms part of our branding - but you understand what I mean, right?!

The aim is to have fun in the process. So, please go and have fun!

The tips forming part of this module are driven by posts I notice on social media and the internet where I think it could be done differently.

This list is by no means exhaustive. Send me a message, email me or even just comment below with ideas of what you might want to see me add in here.

Every so often I'm going to share some templates with you that I put together. They may just spark a bit of creativity loose.

If there are templates you're specifically interested in ... let me know and I'll see what I can do for you!

This module will have NO videos at all. Instead there will just be links linking to the templates creates.

This module will not have videos at all.

I'm a recent convert to embracing AI and am no quite "there" yet. Wherever "there" may be.

I am not scared to admit that it freaks me out a little bit. Remember when Big Brother was on telly and everybody always said Big Brother is watching … yeah I kinda feel like that at the moment.

Anyway, I am embracing it and have started to really enjoy playing with it. My prompts are still very amateurish (which makes the output all over the place as well) and I get frustrated a lot, but I suppose we all start somewhere.

So … do you use AI for your business?

Creating designs that work for YOU and your personal social media strategy. I love playing in Canva, but I don't add ALL of the weird and wonderful to my designs. And neither should you.

Be aware that most times less is more, but please have fun in the process of creating!

In this module were are going to look at the various design principles.

Graphic design principles are fundamental concepts and guidelines that designers use to create visually appealing and effective designs.

While there are many principles, the ones covered here are some key ones that you can implement in your Canva designs.
