Hello Everyone!

Today I would like to make a simple tutorial on how to create a blog divider using Canva App.

I used the pro version Canva App. There are 30 days of free trials for the pro version.

I made this tutorial to fulfill a request from my favorite curator @minismallholding 😎

STEP 1

  • Click Create a design menu

STEP 2

Untitled (1920 × 914 px).gif

  • Click Custom size menu

STEP 3

  • I usually set 1920 for the width and 260 for height. After that click Create new design.

STEP 4

  • Click Uploads menu in the left side then click Upload media. Select the image from your computer.

STEP 5

  • Click the uploaded image first and click Edit image then click BG Remover to remove the background on your image ( if needed ). This feature is only available for the pro version.

STEP 6

STEP 12

FYI, some of the features used to create the divider are only available in the pro version, namely the background remover, transparent background, resize, specific shapes, etc.

I hope this tutorial can help you guys a bit to make a blog divider.

Ah, no! I don't have pro, just the free version. Sneaky. I'm still glad I got you to do the tutorial, though. I learnt something new and hopefully others will too.
