Often times when I’m in the middle of a design project, a brainstorm session, or curating content for a campaign, I wish I could hunt down the creator of Photoshop and have them download everything they know straight into my brain. I’m talking, “Let’s download your brain onto a flash drive, and then program it into my brain” …Please?
Well, if you’re like me and NOT a graphic designer, yet love creativity with quality aesthetics —fear not, we have the solution for YOU!
Canva is a website that allows you to become a master of design without actually having to become the master of design. It has become a great resource for us in creating social media content, and even on a personal basis, I use Canva to create greeting cards, posters, etc.! This site is so many things, including your newest potential best friend.
Here’s 5 reasons you should join the CANVA cheer-squad:
- It’s FREE | ‘nuff said.
- It’s easy to use | You can choose from one of the many created templates, and interchange them with whatever your heart desires. You can upload your own photos and place those as well!
- It’s versatile | Meaning you can create just about ANYTHING — Facebook posts, Twitter posts, business cards, infographics, cover photos… The list goes on.
- It’s vast in offering | It has so many fonts, tools, elements, filters, layouts, etc., you can find all kinds of inspiration.
- It’s time-effective | If you have not-so-much time on your hands, you can quickly generate content and download it in seconds — in whatever format you need, whether for the web or just an image.
