Create new design. And this is going to be our
cover page for our planner. What I want to do is I
want to go into uploads. And here you can upload all of your images that
you want to use. I get all of my images
from a free pic.com. I've just uploaded this
wooden background image. I'm just going to move it, just scale it to make
it a bit bigger. Free pic.com is a great website. If you have a premium account, you can use the images
for commercial use. But you do have to
make sure you're not using the images as they are. They have to be part of
another project, for example. So, for example, by using this wooden background image
for our planet project. And that would be totally okay. I next want to do is go into elements and go into my shapes. And I want to search for a procedural and search
for a curved square. I went to want to change
the color just so I can see a little bit better. You just want to expand this. But making sure you've
got enough room on the right hand side
for all of your tabs. Then want to click on my object and I want to change the color. And the next one to go into my square shape and just
place it into the middle. This is where we
can put our name. So I'm going to
change this to white. I think that looks nice. Next one to do is add some
tabs to the right-hand side. So I'm going to click on
my curved square again. Just make it smaller. Don't want to go to position
and send it to the back. Change the color of this. Just so I can see here. I want to do is I
want to press copy. We want to go to
fetch wealth in here. I've got 1234567891011. I've got 11 is one
way to do is just click on all of my objects. I got into positions and go into front and
then go backwards. Then what I want to do is just
click on my objects again. I'm just make them smaller
and move them up a little bit so I can fit another tab in. Just wanted to copy
this last tab, move it down to the bottom
and position it backwards. Okay, what we next want to do is change the color of our tabs. Go into color. Can you
just go into color? And I just wanted to do this
for the rest of the tabs. Then want to do is click
on my curved square again. And I want to create
some tabs for the top. And then I want to
just change the color. Then I'm going to just
click on these both. And just position to the back. I then want to do is
I want to go into text and I want to go
into add a sub heading. And I want to write Jan. And you want to keep the
font of this as Open Sans. Because when you import
it into PowerPoint, if you do have any other font
which isn't on PowerPoint, just going to change the
size, change the color. Just make it bold. And I just want to rotate it
and just move it into place. Then I just want to
copy this position in the next tab is
changed this to fab. And you just want to keep doing this for all of the month. And want to copy this. Just rotate it
back into and just try to move this to the top and just copy this
and write stickers. I think I'm just going to turn
this into a square shape. Instead. I'm going to go into elements and
go into my square. And just make it the same size. Just delete this one to
fill, change the color, and just position it backwards. I think it just makes things
look a bit better too. I'm going to do now is
go into free pic.com. And I want to add a floral
background to this. So I'm just going to
go into free pig. And I want to search for
a floral background. And I just want to choose
one for my cover page. Going to go for this one. Just want to press download. Download. I want to upload image and just add
my floor background. Just want to click on it. And what I can do
is I can go into effect and I can go into
background remover. And you can just
remove the background. And this feature is only
available if you get Canva pro. It's not available
with the free account. Well, how much do
is just position it and then I just want to
make it slightly bigger. I'm going to click on it
and I want to go into position and go backwards. We've got our cover page. At the moment. Canvas does not allow you to add shadows to any of your objects. I should make this
look more realistic. We want to add a shadow. So I'm going to do, is
I'm just going to add. An image of a plain white
page with a shadow around it. And I'm going to add this
behind my cover page. And this image that I've
got here a little bit available at the end of the
tutorial for you all to use. I'm just going to
make this bigger. We want it to be slightly
bigger than our cover page, just so it peaks out. Then we went to go into
position and go backwards. And we just want to
leave in the back here. So you can see we've got sort
of a shadow effect here. So it looks like I've got
a shadow in the back. Now, what we now want to
do is we want to copy this page and I want to
delete this section. I want to do is I want to upload my weekly planner template
that I created earlier. So I'm going to go
into Upload Media. And you went to, go to
Device and press Browse. And see here we've got our three different templates
that we created. So I'm going to click
on the weekly planner. Just wanted to add this in. You just want to make it bigger. So it fits nicely. I just wanted to
change the color of the pink square into white. Just move my page back. I want to do is I want to
click on my page shadow again. I just want to make it bigger. Just want to position
it backwards. Just so it looks like we've
got multiple pages here. And what I want to do is
I want to copy this page. Don't want to delete template, and I want to go back into
upload media into device to browse and click on my second
weekly planner template. And I just want to
add this one in. Then again, just
duplicate it and just delete this and add
the daily planner paging. So we've got our three templates that we created, weekly planner. And our daily planner. I want to do is I want to copy this page and
just delete this. And I want to add a page
from my notebook canal. And I'm just going to upload
an image of a notebook page. And again, you can get
this from free pic.com. If you have a premium account, you can use it for
commercial use. I then want to do is copy this page and just
delete this image. And I want to add an element. So I'm going to
go into my square and just create a
square root page. This page is going to
be for my stickers. I'm just going to make
it a light pink color. Don't want to go into text. Heading. Just write my stickers. Just position this to the top. And you can change
the color of this. If you wanted. You can
add a border to this. If we go into elements, come into our shapes, I'm going click on this shape. I can just add the border if we wanted to go into color and just change it to
maybe even a white color. So we've got our five
pages, so weekly planner, second weekly planner,

And I just want to create two boxes for the top tabs as well. Then what I would do is I want to go into View, go into Slide Sorter, and I want to move the weekly pages in front of the January tab. And I want to move the notebook and a sticker book. After December. And I want to go into my first page to right-click hyperlink, go into slide title.
