Sobre

Canva is an intuitive online design and publishing tool that allows users to create and share visual content with ease. Founded in 2012, it has rapidly become a go-to resource for businesses, educators, students, and individuals needing simple design solutions.

Remember, Canva is a drag-and-drop tool. This means you can choose elements like text, shapes, and images and drag them to your design, then resize or move them as needed.

.Navigating the Canva Dashboard: The Canva dashboard is the first thing you see when you log in to your account. It's a user-friendly interface designed to give you quick access to all the key features of Canva:
  • Home: On the left-hand side, you'll see a sidebar with various options. Clicking on "Home" takes you to your personal homepage where you'll see a selection of design templates to get you started.
  • Templates: The next option is "Templates." This is where you can explore Canva's wide range of design templates sorted by categories such as social media posts, presentations, posters, etc.
  • Create a design: This is a powerful feature where you can start a design from scratch. You can choose the dimensions of your design or select from a variety of predefined sizes suitable for different purposes.
  • Your designs: This is where all your designs are saved. You can revisit and edit any of your previous designs here.
  • Brand kit: This is available for Canva Pro users. It allows you to save your brand colors, fonts, and logos for easy access.
  • Explore features: Canva has many additional features such as Content Planner, Background Remover, Resize, etc. that can be found under "More."


  • Canva is not just a tool for creating designs; it's also a platform where you can learn about design. Here are a few basic design principles:

  1. Color theory: Colors can evoke feelings and set the mood for your design. Use Canva's color wheel and color combinations feature to choose colors that work well together.
  2. Font pairing: Not all fonts go well together. Canva provides font combinations to ensure that your text is visually appealing and easy to read.
  3. Alignment and hierarchy: Alignment refers to lining up elements to achieve balance in your design. Hierarchy is a way to guide the viewer's eye to the most important elements of your design. Canva's grids and frames can help you achieve proper alignment and hierarchy.
Canva's "Design School" offers numerous tutorials and lessons about these design principles and more, providing you with an excellent learning resource as you work on your designs.
