You’ll have the option of embedding a YouTube video and Instagram post and several others, but my favorite is Flickr. Please, and I can’t stress this enough, only use videos that are yours or are copyright free. Click on Add an Embed and you’ll see several options. Click on the three dots and a window will slide to the right. You may need to scroll down depending on your screen’s size. Under it is Photos, Elements, Text, etc.įind and click on More. On the left side you’ll see pin options and the top one is Template. Most of the time, I like to start from scratch and create my own. It’s in this window that you can look at pre-made templates and choose one if you wish. If you’re not familiar with Canva, my suggestion is to snoop around and check out all of its features. A new window will open up with the proper template dimensions already in place. My default is 600 by 900 px, but you do you. Once you’ve done that, click on Custom Dimensions. So, once you’ve logged into your account, click on Create a Design on the home page. I know that pin size preference likes to change, but, for me, the best ratio is 2×3. I’m just a huge fan! All screenshots in this post are from. Note: This post is in no way sponsored by Canva. Of course, you can pay for an upgraded account that allows extra perks (adding personal fonts, etc.), but it’s not necessary for this tutorial. Second, when you create a free account, your pins will automatically save in case you want to go in and edit at a later date. But, for me, it’s the Pinterest templates that really shine. I love Canva’s features, especially when creating social media images.
