Visionboarding for 2025 using Canva

1. Introduction: Hi, everyone. My name is Sylvan joke and I'm an instructor in this course. In this course, we're going to be doing something very aligned to my identity here as a Skillshare teacher. We're going to be doing vision boarding using Canva. And in this class, we're going to be using the free Canva version. I believe, as I mentioned, in another class, using free version tools is very important as you start out and as you explore things, and that's where I'm going to go with the free version today. I tend to juggle between using the free resource and the pre version for different realms and different objectives in my career and by business side. But for this training class, we're going to just be using the free version. What I want for you to consider when you're coming into this class is having an open mind. I believe it's so important to be in a space of being open to thinking about who you want to be in this new season of your life and how you need to show up to create that new reality for yourself. I believe it's also very important to be drastically honest with ourselves because it ensures that we keep ourselves accountable into the future and can make our visions come into a reality. Sometimes it's very difficult to just have goals which are not heart goals, which don't relate to something that's very deeply personal if you have not really understood or um, have full clarity on where you need to go. However, while I've mentioned that you need to have clarity on where you need to go sometimes, you may be in a season of life where you're not very sure on which identity you're going to do. So say, for instance, you're struggling with being an artist and being a corporate person, you could have a little bit of back and forth. But in this class, you're going to be going into all that through embracing each part of your identity including your vision board. The good thing about a vision board is you don't have to separate different aspects of yourself when coming up with a vision for a. So for me, I can be the carpet girl. I can also be the artist and dreamer and skill share teacher and creative in the world and also create good products for clients and experiences for people and also create just generally for myself. So that's the most beautiful part of being in this season and also creating this class. Another reason why I've been creating this class is because I tend to create it or consider doing vision booth around the time my birthday is coming in. So I tend to do them between February and March because my birthday is in February, I doing it a little bit earlier this time around because I want to share the process with you guys and also integrate soft tools because it's around the time that people are thinking about the plans for the year and the change in the seasons. So that's what we're going to be going into. The only new additional thing we're going to be doing as well is considering approaches on understanding the subconscious mind and how to integrate moving your vision void to actual reality. So we're going to have a slipper roll. We're going to create messages which you're going to send to your future self to just encourage yourself as you go into implementing all the ideas and all the projects that you want to put on your vision board into coming into a reality. So that's going to be everything that we're going to go into in this class. I'm so excited for you to join on on this class and for you to create something that deeply resonates with you because a vision board is very personal because you're the one who understands your whole life journey, your whole life experiences, things that are important to you and your plans for the next season of your life. So that's what we're going to be going into and welcome to this kill share class. 2. Your Class Project: For this class project, I want you to work on your vision. As I mentioned, regardless of whatever season it is in life or whether you are at the start of the year or later on in the year when you come to see this class. I want you to create your vision bold using Canva. It doesn't matter whether you actually have Canva premium or not. This is something that can be applicable to anyone. I believe that the main difference between the Canva premium and Canva, basic, which is what we're going to be using in this class, is that most of the resources are locked, right. But we can get pictures and things that we want to put into our vision bold, which is mainly just the pictures off of other resources like splash, which you're going to be going into and a little bit more resources. And if that doesn't work, you can also draw them out. You can create, um, you can doodle them so that you can integrate them into the general official board. This class, I really look forward to seeing the the result that you work on because it's very applicable to you. It's very relevant to the season in time. And I think that everyone's vision bode can be very different because we have different intentions during different seasons of our lives. And we also come from different backgrounds, and we also have different realities in the different areas in the world we live in, but we generally want one whole community. So we can have one form of togethersm generally gets us to the angle. So that's your cs project. But 3. Materials You Need: For the materials you're going to be needing, you're going to be using a computer. You can also try and use this using a phone. So anything that has Internet access, I prefer to use a computer because it has a larger screen, but our phones are very technologically connected and even have so much capacity to do such amazing things. So if you're only seeing this class on your phone and really want to work on it, you can definitely even do that on your phone because you can get the pictures from Aslash or free resources like Google and use them and paste them on Canva. Other than that, I'd like for you to get a notebook and paper. Um, this is going to be integral in the initial phase, where we're going to be jotting down the points before we really get started into actually visualizing and getting our vision into Canva and the final output that we create. That's going to be very important. So we can get started. 4. Journalling Your Thoughts: Okay, so we're now going to be going into the ideas for the project. So as I mentioned at the start, as I mentioned at the start, I want to group my portions of life into different things. The first thing will be fitness, but this is under my idea of being very confident in life. I like to write it down as confident most times. Another thing I want to think about is my life experiences. So I think travel. I want to put a few pictures of destinations I plan to visit for the year. Um, so this for you could be wherever you want to go. So for me, it's going to be parts within my country and somewhere like if I travel outside the country or places I hope to travel to. Another thing I'm going to think about is my business. So my art business, I think I'm going to add the art stickers that I want to work on. I already have a cricket machine, so that's perfectly fine. I'm going to put pictures of notebooks, slash journals. Also at the end of the year to have worked on a calendar. Another thing I feel like I want to work on is bottles, and t shirts. I'm going to just put a few of these images. We see the pictures that I work on and the resources I get. The four thing that I want to think about is my dressing. So that's going to look like um, outfits, um, outfits or dressing. Maybe say, for instance, for this something I'm thinking about is going out for dinners by myself or dinner dates alone. So this is something like very personal that would be driving why outfit is part of their goals on there. Another thing I want to think about is investment or I'm going to put it as knowledge as well because sometimes I feel like we may have a knowledge gap that hinders you from knowing what opportunities to take on. This would include research on opportunities on bonds so that I understand what that is, um like say, um, I also would put, um, what area I want to invest into. So going to invest into my art business. Another thing I want to invest into learning is actually finally creating my website. I'm going to put this under under investment slash knowledge because it needs me to put in my love time and is a heart goal that gets me to the intentions that I have for the year. And finally, I'm going to put in experiences. So while we do have travel at the top, I think what is important to put in is something like experiences. In my country, we have a lot of national parks and, um, now I want to try hiking. I'm going to put in hiking, camping as well. I think I'd also want to go snorkeling again, in the near future and also explore forest walks. There's a lot of forests with different. There's one with fully bamboo trees. There's one called carefree, which has very beautiful skips. These are the main things that are going to be in my in my project, and this is going to generally be what guides how my end results is going to look like. So now that this is done and we have all the ideas jotted down, I can now head out to using Canva. If you've not opted to put this on paper, you can also just do this on on a word document or a document online or just add them in later if you don't feel like adding you've put everything on here. I'm just going to doodle a bit because I feel like these days, I really like doodling and it creates makes it be a very memorable page. Going to put in some stars. Yeah, just some random things. This page is now just going to look like what is it called? Vision B. So when I open, like, um, all of previous pages, I know, like, when I come onto this stage, this is gonna be like my page for the vision board. So that's it. Now, let's move on to using Canva. 5. Quicktips on Using Canva: So, now we're going to start creating the um, creating a vision board. The first thing I'm generally right now on my homepage here on Canva. It has a lot of things on projects that I've worked on before. I'm going to click Creator Design, and because I want it to match the screen display on my computer, I'm going to create, um, I'm going to search for I'm going to create something custom. So I'm just going to swipe down to custom size and create, 1960 by 1080. So those are the dimensions for a general screen. So it's going to create some. And then I'll also open my MSlash page to just have a quick place where I'm going to start searching for the images that I'm going to be downloading for this project. So now that we are on the homepage for Canva, I'm just going to go over different things. As I mentioned, I'm using the Canva, free version for this main project. I generally use it for free. If I know I can get the resources which I want outside the main scope of Canvas. So there's a design space where you can design different things or see different templates available. And then there's a space for elements, which you can get different things like design like circles, squares, different like literary elements, text where you can add on text, brand templates, which most of them here, seem to be on the premium side. Uploads as well, upload my documents, draw is where you can use your pen to, projects where you can group things, apps. Here you can also find Asplash is integrated. But we're just going to be using Aslash the main page to just Oh. So this has apps which you can which you can use, and then photos, which would be different photos that we have for the vision board, and then videos. In this project, the videos are not going to be relevant because you are intending to get something that's static. When you add an element, right, like a different let's just go with when you add like a box element, you can choose to have it flipped. Like, you can flip it to different sizes. You can edit, like the size of it. You could also look at, like, whether you want to add some bolder or not add boda at all. This is good when creating pre frames for yourself. So you can just, increase the frame to that point in size. You can also choose to have it dotted or none at all. Then you can choose to round the corners or import, like a rounded corner like box instead. Then you could also crop the image. So for cropping, you have to you could choose to, like, rotate it or, like, leave it at the center and just, like, undo. And then this is like the place that I like the most, which is transparency. So when you have, like when you have a gradient, you can reduce the transparency of the item at the front to make you see the item behind it or increase transparency to make it fully like not present. Then anime is something that, like, would inform how the video is coming in, but it would not be very relevant for this part of the project. Then the position is very important. So when working with this project, because you're going to have a lot of layers, you can choose to have a project at the front or at the back to the top. Like you align it in different places very quickly using these items at the center at the far left. So there's this is good features to have. Another thing I'd want for you to note is when you have two items, you can choose to highlight both of them, right click And actually, you can choose to highlight both of them and group them. And then this makes the two items move together. So say, for instance, you've merged the two items right there or, like, have, like, made this a little bit more transparent, but it's still present. But you don't want to move it separately. You want the two to move together. You can highlight them and group them, which makes them move together. You can also lock these items in place so that they don't move at all. So if you have selected, for this item to be at this corner, right, you can choose to lock it the corner, and you won't be able to move it at all, not unless you click on the item and then unlock. Then once you unlock, you'll have to, like, ungroup the item so that you can move it separately. So those are just the key things which you may need to know. As you're working on this project, I think they're like, very light things, but very common things or guide the whole use of EI. So at the far bottom, we just have a layout, but might not be very relevant at this point, but as we go over it, you can choose to, like, have a zooming of all the pages. Um and increase the zoom of the page, for instance, right? Then you can have to you can choose to have different, like, page layout so that if you want to add, like a lot more pages, or view it from the top down, or view it as different, like, groups of pages. Pages. So I like, move to full screen. And, like, that's generally like everything you may need to know about using Canva as you're starting out on the project. The only other thing is you, at the end, can export items and export them with a transparent background if have Canva premium. So some of these features over here are limited to having Canva premium, so it's not relevant for the class, but we're going to be able to work on it regardless. So those are the key things that you may need to know. Yeah. So we're just going to go back home and what we can do for just quick reference to see how things look like. Sometimes you tend to find that people have already created different things, and as you can see, it's already available. Like, there is like the tab, like vision board, which we can definitely create later. Those are, like, items which are on the premium side of things, there's different photos like which people can integrate. This is generally just for quick reference. So what you want to just like if you're new to using Canva, it would be good to just go over this and see. And then we can also just go here and also just search Vision board and see how it's going to be. So if you want, like this type of texture, it's something that you can download from some different resource or use to integrate use to integrate like what's already here. Um, as you can see, most of the pictures don't provide, like, a quick template for a vision board, because we would generally find it on here. Let's see whether we're going to find it on design. Um, yeah. So this is but as you can see, it's a premium resource. A lot of them are just going to be premium resources. There's something like this, which has, like, a lot of lines, which is a nice, which is a nice inference to have, but we're going to just be creating something from scratch, so we don't really need to use this at this point in time. So no. And at this point in time, is when we can now actively start getting the pictures that we're going to be downloading. So that's the next part. 6. Getting the Pictures: So we are now going to just go back into getting the pictures. I'm going to get my journal at this point in time to just, like, go over the main things that I wanted to get. Um, so the most important thing to think about when going into and splash is like thematic colors that you want to work with. So for me, I'm going to start out with the first thing that I mentioned, which is fitness. I generally just I'm going to just have, first of all, a quick swipe through the page to see what I want to have embodied in my work and then see which pictures I'm going to take. I like the fact that there's a lot of, like, female inferences. I like this image, but some of them have a restriction to download. So this ones require like premium payment. Um, I really like this one because it shows the person, you know, gym background. I also tend to work out in the gym. So the gym and the background in the gym is what makes sense for me. But I also I like this aspect of having something different. So I'm just going to grab this picture. First of all, I like this aspect of being outdoors. So I'm just going to get a few pictures that are very realistic. For me. Then I think I want to get, like, one with weight because I do a lot of weight training. So we're just going to go back up in fitness weights just search for weights so that I can get something particularly lim around well weightlifting, yeah. So is. But so sometimes you can get these pictures here, gym weights. But they may not be free, and that's the whole reason that, like I go into Once flash or something like this. This is actually something good. I think I can work with this, as I also applaud the other image that I have grabbed. Yeah. So we have to image it so far. Odd fitness. And then the next thing I'm going to go into is travel. So so I'm going to get, like, a few pictures of Singapore. I really like this one. I think this is, like, very aligned to, like, the theme that we're going for and one for the night. So, the other thing that I mentioned before is I like the environment in my country. So I'm just gonna grab one image directly from the Internet on that because I know for sure that I'm not going to get it anywhere else. So we're just going to copy image and drop in here. That also generally uploads the image on the platform. So we're just going to paste a few of things things. You can choose to just, like, drag and drop directly from here. Drag and drop. That would actually be the easiest thing for you to choose to do. Then I'm going to go into my next thing, which is art stickers. I'm going to get something very random, which I can find available. I like this a lot. This one's actually, like, really perfect. I think it's aligns to something I'm going for channels. Wood. Um, for dressing, I like to choose spintest as the main homepage for, like, getting some design ideas. I definitely love this. I think this is, like, very cute. I think also something official experiences, I'm going to get hiking. Hiking trails, yeah, something very very coming. Like, I like something very coming, very relatable to my reality. We don't have snow in Kenya. So I wouldn't, um, relate to, like, a very icy cold image. I like this whole camping image. I also am going to get one on snorkeling. Um, this one works very well, as well as this one. Then, forest walk. I already got this one the main place I want to go is carefree walk. But we can just add one more thing. Yeah. So now that I'm done getting all the items that I need for the project, I'm just going to move them into Canva. So the main thing I'm going to do is just drag drop and, like, slide everything in. Um, I think, I have a lot to work with now. So now we can move on to, like, the next part, which is designing the homepage and the layout of my main homepage so that I can drag in all the pictures in. Yeah. So let's head into that. 7. Designing Your Visionboard: I want to go with very muted colors. I think the first thing that we're just going to be doing here on the homepage is to just see the different designs, as you can see the different mood boards and different styles. So the different mood boards give you, like, a view of the different colors people have or have chosen for their projects. A lot of it looks muted, which I really like, but I think we can go in for, like, something bold or something a bit different, which has, like, more identity. Once you click on One, for instance, you're going to see very different colors like different themes like this one, which is fully a different color which is more resonating and more inclined or something like, which is purple, which is just a bit different. So we're going to just, like, do something that's very relatable. And I'm going to just quickly delete these two pages, and then we can finally just start creating this. Well, I'm just going to clean up this page. And what you're going and what you're going to do at this point, is just go to the elements page and grab a different shape. So, for me, I want box shape. That's a box shape which can fit into the images so that I can slide them and arrange them around. So I'm just going to go for square frame. So it's very important for you to pick the frames because the frames is what the pictures will fit in rather than going for something completely different. So I want, I like this type of fims. I'm going to just duplicate them a lot, and then we're going to resize them differently at different places, and then add different texts. I'd like this in the corner because I'm thinking of having the name vision board in the middle. Then I'm going to just resize this based on, like, something random or just like a random look that I want to integrate. We can add different shapes as we go along. And then we can choose to just move things around and see whether it makes sense. I'm just gonna add a humor and then grab on, like, some different frame time. So let's just see the different frames. I think this one's beautiful for me to replace and avoid a sense of monotony. Then a circle frame, um, you just break this into something similar. Then I'm gonna give the background a color at this point. I like the deep red or a burgundy kind of look just going to see how it generally looks or let's see whether something muted is better, um I think, let's see. Pink. Um hm. It's very muted. So we can change the color later on. But the main thing the colour will do is it creates like a grounding sense for the piece, so that everything or, like, everything aligns to the final look. So we're just going to go with that colour temporarily. And then I'm going to be dragging in pictures. But, first of all, I think I want to create text boxes to just create for me the um, the different zones of my life that I want to group things into. So continue. The main thing I want to look at or at this point in time, is to have thematic areas at different places so that I can have, like, one general look. As you see, I'm typing for one with a textbox. They always tend to have textboxes when you check the rectangular shapes. But I'm just going to add something over here and start out with fitness as the main tagline, I'm going to change the font. Yeah, I like this font. So so as you can see, you can have it in different, like, quits, and I like the one recommended. So we're just going to go with that. And then I am going to reduce this so that we can fit it somewhere and have, like, that thematic area B, like, the key area for that zone because I'm going for, like, more muted colors. Um, I am going to just search for brown, so that we can use that as the main background. I like that better. That looks much better. I'm actually also going to change this to something more muted. Yeah, I like that better. So everything around fitness is going to be around there. And then I'm going to duplicate this and piece it somewhere else to cover the next thematic Asia, which is travel. Then everything travels going to be around here. You can reduce this based on, like, whether whether it needed to be reduced or not, I'm just going to do what I think looks good for me in the picture. So you can have it overlay or be beneath, and then you can duplicate that. And I want to use the same, like, design, you can have in this zone, be the outfits where the look. So I'm going to just name the name, the looks, and then I'm going to switch it up actually and have this instead. So I'm going to just ungroup it first because I want one text, one text layer, so I'm just going to delete that and remain with this and write 2025, then I'm going to remove the size to, like, something around that size. We're also going to just, like, make it smock at the center. Then at least now I can change up the colors to be something more muted, which aligns to the colors I'm going for. I think I'm going to make it a bit darker brown instead. So you have a lot of colors to choose from. You could also choose to put the hex codes on here, but I don't have I feel fine with working with the colors we have available. So I'm just going to go back and use that color. Then switch up this position right here. I'll see. Maybe you'll change that again. Yeah, I think I'll just switch it up and have that here. And then I know, just leave it as it is. I'm now going to paste in the images that I have. So for the travel images, I'm going to grab this picture right there. Um, for the looks, we're going to just slightly to the corner and just have it fit right there in the corner. You can make these things smaller or bigger based on how you want it to look like because I have two looks going on on here. I am going to just combine, and then I'm going to move this item to the front of the two so that it looks more more put together already. So So we're just going to, like, align the items from the corner. I like that already. Okay, so I'm just going to make this, like, slightly bigger. So that I can see it much more. Then I'm going to move the slide image right there and try upload the other image of Singapore, which is the green background image. We're going to just script them right there, and then I can move. So you could choose to lock this item so that it doesn't affect other items that I need to move around. As you can see, that's the whole drawback of inputting it initially. Then I think I'm going to just Change up the text again because I want something more. Let's just see how it looks. I think I prefer this text much, but it's moment. Yeah. So I'm going to just switch to that text. We will have this image right at the corner. Then I can make it slightly bigger so that it stands out. Um, other than that, I'm going to actually just delete this item for now first. When I just switch up these images and see which one works, but I think I'll make them slightly bigger. Um, I like that. And then I can make this longer to just, like, match, then move this up a bit. Or, like, have something that also matches that, which could be the travel thing instead. So I'm just going to replace that in here to make it make more sense. I can move this up. I also can decrease the size. There arrive, there we go. Then make this slightly bigger and think about, like, something aqua I want to do, be present for each experience. So I like that, like, something that I have come up with, right? Then for this, I'm going to now, like, have it much like a different brown color that's lighter and more more calm, more relaxed for me. So we're going to go with that. Then I'm just going to have it at the back, yeah, right there. So it can just slightly slide underneath. Then we're going to have, like, another picture right above, right here, which could be the high image. So going to just make it slightly larger. And then move it to exactly where it was. Then have my um, yeah, just in between these two images, but, like, moved up to the front. I think I want it to be at the front, most area. Yeah, that way. So already, the image is taking shape. I have a lot of nature and natural items looking in right here. So I just want to expand this a little bit, maybe bring it to the fort so that it doesn't seem that this is at the fully at the front. Then, however, I want to I want to just, um, edit out this image a bit first to just make sure it shows only the C part instead of each part around it. So I like it that way much better than it was before. Then I'm going to make this into more of a triangle instead a rectangle, sorry. I'm going to make this into a rectangle instead and just have the night look. The night look right here, then move it up to just show the camping. Already, this gives a sense of travel, life experiences. We're going to reduce the text here and also make it bold. I don't know whether we can make this bold. Um, let's just leave it as it. Um, Actually, I think we can get something that's mobs, or this one. So I'm just going to try out a few. Yeah, I think this one looks much better. I won't change you can choose to change all the phones, but I don't want to change them all, so I just want to change that one. Already this is really looking up. I'm gonna have my business images show up right here, then expand this a bit into the corner. Um, Great though creating for you. I'm going with quotes, which I'm creating myself because I think it's very important for me to just, like, feel that it's mine. I think also it just relates more or makes it more relatable to me. So I'm just going to go with, like, something that is gentle but also just works for me. Yeah. I think I like the color. Then we're going to just go back into the images and see which images I have in put in. Then I'm going to move things a bit around over here and see how, like, I like the look of things and reverse. So this is generally, like the main journey of creating the whole project because there's a lot of, like, your ideas coming in and going. So some things look very organic because they just are. Then I'm going to just paste in a few more images of art. Um, so in this part, we're just going to be just adding a few more items. So that's why it's looking very, um, slow, let's see. Then I'm going to get, like, a texture ingredient to just, like, balance things out. Something sort of like, um um, fabric. Yeah. Let's just try it out and see whether it works. Um, So I'm just gonna drag this across the whole piece and and position it fully at the back to the back, completely to the back. So the main reason I have done that is because the previous background is looking a bit too plain for me. So I want to create, like, some space in between the items also so that, like, there's more flow and, like, things look more uh, working together, per se, let's say, things look more flowy. I think the textured background gives us a better opportunity to see. Let me just also get something that looks like a warmer notebooks. Um, something like this. I think this is actually better than the initial image that I had in mind. Um, so just going to download that and then replace it right in here. Um, so so far, this is what we have, but I want to add, like, a few textbook elements, um, like on here. So, um, each love its Johnny. And see the effect of using this colour. I prefer this colour better. So I'm just going to trace the color first. So now that I've found it, we can just switch everything to that color for now and see from, like, an outward perspective, whether I really like it or not, I'm going to move this to the center so that and then I'll drop this image and, like, paste something completely different. I want us to have very distinct lines. I think I'm going to just go for a more uniform design. Position. Forward. So, creating this is actually very refreshing for me because I'm actually sharing, like, my general experience as I go. So you just have to keep, like, making tweaks and changes until you like it because not unless you like it, you won't actually end up using it. Or if it's too strong, if it's not, like, warm, 'cause I feel like my main challenge at this point in time is, like, there's a lot of color and then there's too much warm. So I want to have more color everywhere. So I definitely should give up on that and then, like, get something more colorful. So colorful fitness. I actually don't even think I put in my fitness image in here yet. So remember, you can change the position. So when you press backward on this, it just moves it behind one frame. So you can choose to move it in front of the frame or, like, behind a different element. So I like how it's behind one element, but in front of the other, we're just going to expand it. And then h for this one, I want it to also have the same aspect of, like, positioning. So I'm just going to click on it and select position, then press forward. So we're just going to have to move it around so that the text shows up as I press backwards, it is like within some items. So no, I don't like that. Then we're going to leave it at that point for now. Then for this, I'm going to make it brighter. Actually, we're making a lot of good progress. I think I like more blue toned colors. So we're just going to try keep seeing whether I'm finding clarity. I think I am. Finding, like, a theme that makes more sense for me. And this is mainly 'cause I'm picking up on the background being, like, the like grey background, like, very um, height, but also not too bool. And I really like that. So now we're gonna add some few more elements and complete the piece. 8. Adding Personality Touches: So now that we found, like, a little bit more clarity with the direction and the visual direction that I'm going for, I'm going to add a few more elements, which is like swiggi lines, some glitter here and there, so that, like, it creates, like, a whole fine cohesive look for the piece. So that's what we're going to be going into in this part. So I'm just going to check different graphics that is possible to put in. Um, simple drawn objects. This could work well because I want some squiggly lines like like right here, but on a different shape. So we're just going to search for, like, lines. Yeah, to just see the different lines, which is available for use. For some, you'd find like you want to change the color and the direction. I like the stars a lot. This is so beautiful. I think I'm going to integrate that. I also like the butterflies. I think we can integrate it right there. Then let's just see all the recommendations they have. So this is just like the final piece, which will just, like, bring together the whole look of the project. I'm just going to, like, look look at recommendations that align with things I've worked on before. So this is, like, based on, like, AI feedback, a little bit of um, and also from, like, things I've also ever created before. So now that we have a few to work with. I'm just going to go with those ones. I'm going to switch up the colors to match the project colors for me. So I'm going to search for, like, plutons so that we see whether it's too bold or, like, too muted or act Oh, I like that. I think we're just going to leave this as es, then bring it down and just, like, place it like right there where it brings out the pieces together, then have this, as I'm going to just switch it down. So you can rotate these items to like 90 degrees to just like, like, uh like, bring both items together. Like my key message for the ear, as well as as well as this item. So I'm just going to minimize it a little bit, and then I'll change up the color and just have that blue colour that I'm going for. So blue colour that matches or probably, like, a white color. It just depends on what's going to look good for me. So I'm just going to try out different colors at this point in time to see. Yeah. Yeah. I like this. It's a bit more bold, but it works. It works. So I'm just going to switch it a little bit. It's, like, working cohesively into this and then press it right at the center of that. Then we're going to bring down the butterfly a little bit. Then we're going to make it into a white color. If I can change the background for that. I don't think I can change the background for that, sati. Then for this buddhas you can switch it up under the angle. There we go 180 degrees. Right. Perfect. Then put it up there where the quote is, like, which creates some bit of accent. I'm gonna switch up the color or, like, make it very So that it blends well into the different few colors that I'm going to be adding in. Uh huh. So there we go. I'm going to duplicate this because I really like its whole look to just, like, fill in the negative spaces that I have here and there. I'm going to replace the butterfly with, like, something completely different because I can't change its background color. So let's try this quickly line. Probably I can change the color of it. Yes. So here we go. So just reduce the size a bit and then place it like right at the corner and see how that looks. I really like that. I think I'm just going to duplicate this and bring it actually to this full corner and then it make it like an accent corner item. So it's gonna move this around, then gonna put that right there. So going to colors. Actually, I'm not going to switch out any color for it. Then for this quickly line, can bring it on down here to just, like, create some interlinking of the piece. Then I'm going to try and make this bolt so that it stands out and is more more appealing. Gonna make it like a tad bit bigger. Yeah, just a tad more. There we go. Yeah, I think that's like more standing out. Like, it stands out a little bit more. Then we're going to switch the position and move it like a bit forward. Yeah. So we're going to move it forward, just be on top of it. And then I'm going to merge these two items so that they always move together, actually, after I revert the position of this. I'm going to group it so that when I move it around, it moves together. There. Then I'm going to just get another element to fill in this area. So we're just going to search recently used graphics because I've used a lot of different graphics, which are a bit more random before. So like this one, we're going to just trust the process and search up its color to something more vibrant, more toned down, actually, so that it blends into the other elements, like right here. Okay. So let's see. So yeah, so I so that's it. So at this point, I don't think I'm gonna make any changes. I think the whole layout of the item works much better at this point in time. I feel very confident because it integrates their themes of, like, travel, um, the themes of my fitness, a little bit of the quotes I want, the business side of things. The color is more balanced at this point. Initially, when we started out, I didn't know what color to go with. So but I like that, like, I tested out different things and got to this point which I like the color. So at this point, I'm just going to download this item, and we're going to download it as a P&G because we want, like, the biggest size we can get. And then we're going to see how it looks like as an individual image just in itself to now like, put on your phone or put anywhere else, and then we can finally, like, get into, like, writing down the quotes that we want to create for our future self. So there we go. Wow. So here's like so here's a general final look. I really like how it doesn't have so much going on. There's a lot of focus on fitness and travel, which is generally at the core of my life. There's also, like, a lot of focus here and there on, like, my business. And there's also, like, a focus on just being very present. I think one of the things I removed was the bit on dressing, but it wasn't very, like, integral. I feel like my style never really changes much. So I like how the items look at this point. I feel like it speaks to me a lot. It also, like, shares, like, things that I really do appreciate. While also being cohesive, I have also found a way to integrate different colors, the pink through having the different elements. And that's the beauty of using Canva. As you've seen, we've done all this without using any of the paid options. So that's why I really like integrating splash as, like, the main resource for, like, getting pictures and images. And also, if you're traveling within your country, customizing it, and getting pictures for backgrounds in your space. Think that's very important so that you are able to work on it. The main thing about it, as you download pictures, is that for this project, you're working for it for yourself. So you're able to, like, integrate it just into your personal life. So you don't really need to be feeling a lot of pressure about, like, incorporating people's like interest pictures or pictures from other resources because you have no intention of, like, making this into, like, a product for sale. Then if you in future, intend to sell it as a product, then you'd have to incorporate those aspects. I think for me, the most integral part, which, like, created the first basis of the project was actually creating the background, the texture of background with a fabric. It created, like, the main basis and the guide for the final look. And while it was a journey to get to it, I think it still, like, shows, like, the beauty and the essence of using Canva. 9. Notes to Future: So we've come to, like, the semifinal part of this class, which is getting you to the end of your, like, vision board and, like, into reality and transitioning it into something that's more useful to the world. So we're going to be writing down notes to my future self, and, like, it's something that I have learned through reading a few books. I'm just going to share the quote right here. And the main thing the quote goes into is sharing the journey of manifesting things into reality and moving things from your vision board into, like, something that's reality in this case. So this is very important because many times you may feel like detached from, um, an intention because you don't know how to get to it. So this is going to resolve that by giving you like, an opportunity to actually be successful in getting the project. And I'm just going to write things like around, like, the things I've written. And then after this, I'm just going to put them in, like, different pockets in my jackets and, like, clothes in the house, like, a shot somewhere or like a notebook that I read like here and there, so that I can always be motivated and I can keep moving forward towards the goal. As I look into the key reference was, first of all, is travel. So I want to write a note. Hope you're loving. Hope you are loving Singapore today. Is it the ticket? Any outfits, selected. So this is just gonna push me towards, like, and make me feel more excited about, like, the whole project to go to Singapore. I think this is such a good way of integrating hope and integrating your wishes into your final, like, ideas coming into fruition. It goes, like, very deeply into exploring, like, things that are important to you in your notes for the year. And that's the cool thing about it. So I finally set the vision board at the background for my home page, and it looks very grounding. It has all the aspects that I really want to remember. And, like, this is the final look. So just consider doing this as the final part of making sure you keep remembering what's important for you in the e. 10. Final Thoughts: We've come to the end of this class. I am so excited to have shared everything with you. I believe vision bolding for me in this new era of my life is something that incorporates so many segments of my life. As if you have been an avid watcher of, like, my classes on young, we've covered so many things from being an artist from I've mentioned a few times about experiencing artistic block. In the past, I've also done a lot of planning videos and also explored my whole corporate journey at work. I believe vision boarding for me in this new year is something completely different because when I struggled with artistic Blog, I think the thing that I stopped doing was creating. And while I'm now on this side where I feel like I've come back into myself, the thing I know I shouldn't have done is stop creating. So it's so ironic how the life changes and the lessons we learn. But that's very important in considering your plans for the year. Because for me, I think in creating this vision board today, I thought about being drastically and brutally honest with myself. And I believe that this year for me or this new season for me is a season of creating much more into the universe and creating and sharing my personality and being fully honest with the people I meet, like, in terms of being creative and being open to being one in the world that pushes so much for us being on, like, the coppet side and hassle side of things. So having a vision book that reminds me about, my goals and my intentions and also integrates the beautiful things that I love in life is something that keeps inspiring me to keep moving forward in the next phases of my life. And I feel like integrating all those aspects that I mentioned before on manifesting and your subconscious and your conscious mind is so important in moving your money moving your vision from just a vision to actual reality and ensuring that you become the new person you need to be to confront and be in this new reality that you want to create in the future. So that's the end of the class. I'm so excited that you joined on on this one. I look forward to seeing what you create and have an amazing day.
