Hello everyone.
Welcome back once again.
And right now we're going to learn how you will create a Facebook cover using Canva.
So one more thing I need to tell you that whatever design you want to create using Canva, you just
have to search in inside the search box.
Because most of the essential templates for designing of any elements for any reason are available in
here.
Okay, so if you need to create some Twitter hits or Twitter ads as well as of YouTube cover, YouTube
thumbnail and Instagram post.
So whatever you need, you just have to search over here and you will get the default templates.
That's essential.
Okay, so let's start creating Facebook Cover using Canva.
So I'm going to create a Facebook cover.
That's why this time I'm not going to use this search bar I'm going to use this create design option.
And from there you will have this Facebook cover option.
And you can see 1640 by 924 pixel.
This is the default size of Facebook cover.
And I'm going to click this Facebook Cover option okay.
So you can see this is my default template or this is my default canvas.
And in here I am going to I'm going to create a Facebook cover here okay.
So let's start the process.
So at first we have to work with the background.
And for background I want to go for the elements option.
And I want to type green and black okay.
And once you will write green and black you just have to hit the enter button after writing the green
and black inside the elements.
And then I want to go for um photo option.
So you can see there are lots of green and black um, images are available.
So, uh, from here I want to I want to use this one, I want to use this image.
And once you will click, it will be placed at your canvas.
Basically I'm going to create a Facebook cover for a beauty expert.
And that's why I'm picking this, um, black and green background.
And I want to place over here.
And now I want to duplicate these things.
And for duplicate you can see here this is the duplicate option.
And I'm going to pick this duplicate option.
And then I want to place this image over here.
And once again I want to duplicate this image.
And I want to.
Please sit.
Here.
Okay.
Looks good.
Now I want to I want to add a circle frame.
And I want to place total five different image.
And at five different image I want to place inside the circle.
So let's do that.
And you know how you will import or how you will add a circle frame.
And for adding a circle frame you have to click this elements option.
And from there you can directly click this circle option.
And you can see here if you scroll down with your mouse then you will have this frames option.
So from here I want to I want to pick this second frame.
And you can see a beautiful frame is added.
And I want to keep this default size.
But make sure that you place the first circle properly at the center of the canvas.
And you can see this is the um, supporting line is indicating that I placed properly, uh, the circle
at the center of this canvas.
Okay, fine.
Now I want to I want to copy I want to copy this circle.
And therefore you can see this is the duplicate option.
And I want to duplicate this one.
And I want to I want to place this circle over here okay.
But before that I want to I want to send backward this second circle because this will be my first image
and this will be the secondary image.
And therefore I want to keep this, uh, first circle at font.
And then I want to keep this second circle behind this first one okay.
And therefore you have to right click with your mouse.
And from layer option I'm not going to send to back I'm not going to use this option I'm going to use
this send backward.
If you please send back then what will happen.
You can see it's just disappeared because this circle placed behind this green leaves.
That's why I'm not going to use this send back option.
So let's get back our previous way.
And that's why you can click this undo option I want to I want to use this send backward option okay.
Then you will have the perfect circle.
And I want to I want to make a little smaller in size.
And I want to place it over here.
Looks good.
And again I want to duplicate this second circle okay.
And therefore I'm using this duplicate option.
And I want to place the third circle here.
And I have to follow the same process I have to send this layer to the backward okay.
So this is what I'm looking for.
And this is what I got.
This is my main purpose.
And I have to follow the same process for the uh, left side as well.
So I have, uh, successfully completed my right side.
And I want to I want to place more two circle at my left side.
That's why I am duplicating this second one, and I'm going to place it over here.
And I want to send back to the backward option.
Okay.
And then I want to duplicate this one as well.
And I want to place it over here.
And.
I want to send this circle to backward.
Okay.
So we got we got a perfect circle placement here.
Now we will we will place some images inside the circle.
As I already told you that I'm going to create this cover photo for a beauty expert.
That's why you have to play some female images inside this circle.
Okay.
And therefore I'm going to I'm going to search.
Clean skin.
And then let me press enter button from my keyboard.
And from there I want to go for the photos option.
Okay, so you can see I got the photos option.
And you can see here that this image looks good.
Okay.
So I want to use this image as a at my um, cover photo.
And if you want to if you want to get some relevant image similar like this one, in that case you just
have to place your mouse here.
And you can see here is a three dot.
If you click here, then you will be able to see the name of the image and by whom this image is provided
in Canva.
So you can see view more by short prime.
That means this image is provided by short prime.
But if you want to get more images from short prime, in that case you have to click View More by Short
Prime.
So you can see there are lots of images provided by Short Prime.
And you can see this is his ID and from here, whatever image you need you can pick it from here.
So I'm going to select this one.
And once you will click this image then you will have this magic recommendations.
Actually this magic recommendation is a new feature of Canva.
And if you click See All then you will have the similar or relevant images.
And this is provided by Canva.
Right.
Okay.
So you can see we placed an image over here.
And now I want to place this image inside the circle.
And one more thing.
You have to be sincere.
If you place this image at the circle, I want to place this, uh, image at the last one and you can
see it's placed properly.
But sometime what's basically happened, the face not placed properly inside the circle.
So therefore how you will solve these things?
I'm going to show you.
So you can see I have successfully placed this, um, image for my right side circle.
And now I want to.
Now I want to use this image and I want to place this image for my second image.
Okay.
You can see I have placed successfully in my, uh, second image.
And I want to I want to use this image at my center image.
So I'm going to use this one and I want to place it over here.
Okay, but you can see in this image not seems properly inside our circle.
That's why I want to click this undo option.
And I want to I want to crop some portion from my right part and you know how to crop.
You just have to use your mouse and you have to place this right side anchor point for cropping.
You already seen in our previous lesson.
And now I want to place it over here.
Okay.
So I have to follow some more ways for placing my lip side circle and for placing at my lip circle.
I want to, I want to.
I want to place this one.
And for the last one I want to place.
This one.
Okay, so you can see I have successfully placed some images here, but now I want to show you a new
way.
That's how you will make your image blur.
That means I want to keep this first image 100% transparent, but the rest of the rest of the images,
I want to make a little blur, and I want to apply some blur effect to this for image.
The second one, third one, fourth one and fifth one.
Only the first image will remain transparent.
And for making the image where you have to select the image, then you have to go for the edit photo
option.
Then if you scroll down then you will have this blur option inside the effects.
So let me click this blur option.
Then you will have this intensity level okay.
So and you can see already blur effect is applied.
So if you want to increase more blurriness in that case you can move this intensity at right side.
Or you can increase the point and you can see here is the impact of blur.
Okay.
But I don't want to go for the 52%.
And if you need more for any other reason, in that case you can increase for the 92% as well.
And here is the output of the blur.
Okay.
But now I want to reduce the intensity and I want to I want to give for the.
20% for the second image and for the third image I want to increase.
For 30%.
Okay, so I have to follow the same process for the website.
You can see for the second image I have used 20%, and for the third image I already use 30%.
So the same things I will apply for this two one.
So for this I want to increase for 20%, and for this one I want to increase for.
30%.
So you can see only only the first image will remain transparent and the rest of the image seems blurred.
Okay, so this is what exactly I was looking for.
Okay, now I want to.
Now I want to apply some frames, but you can see there is some glitch is appearing.
You can see because we already applied three different background and this image not seems properly
perfect over here.
That's why I'm selecting here.
And I want to increase I want to increase.
Size.
And I'm sending this second image here.
Okay, now it looks good.
You can see now we don't have any any stretch line over here.
So what I did, I just expanded or I just enlarge the first background and you can see I have enlarged
these things.
And now this looks much better than before okay.
But I want to I want to place some line inside this cover photo.
And therefore I want to add some lines, or I want to add some rectangle shapes.
And therefore you have to click this elements option once again.
And you have to click this shapes option.
And from there you just have to go for the see all option.
Okay.
So I want to use this rectangle shape.
And you can see uh this is a nice rectangle shape.
And I want to increase the height okay.
And I want to I want to place this rectangle shape over here I want.
Now I want to reduce the thickness.
And I want to keep the thickness.
Till here.
Okay.
And now I want to I want to send back this layer because you can see this.
This line is appeared in front of our last corner circle.
That's why you just have to right click with your mouse.
Then you will get this layer option.
And I want to click this send backward option okay.
Now it's really looks much better.
And I want to I want to change the color as well.
And instead of this blue color I want to change the color.
And for changing color we have to go for this color option.
And from there you can use this add a new color option.
And I want to I want to use.
Okay.
This color as well.
This looks good.
I'm just trying some color palette for checking how the color looks like.
Okay.
I'm going to keep this light yellow color okay.
Okay.
Now I, I want to I want to add some more shapes.
And I want to duplicate this one because I want to place this same line at the right side as well.
And for duplicate you just have to select this shape.
And then you have to click duplicate option.
And I have to I have to move this line.
Here.
And now let me reduce the thickness.
And I'm using my mouse.
Uh, sorry.
My keyboard.
Uh, right arrow key for moving properly.
Uh, to the right side.
Okay.
And now I want to use or I want to send my layer back.
Okay.
Uh, instead of sent to back, I am going to use the send backward option.
Okay.
Now it looks good.
And now I want to add some more lines okay.
So adding some more lines I want to use the same things.
And I am going to increase the width and I'm going to decrease.
The height of this.
Shape.
And now I'm going to place over here.
And now let me reduce the thickness and I want to place it.
Here.
And I want to reduce the size as well because I need to put some text.
Okay.
Looks good.
And now I want to duplicate this one.
And I want to I want to move this.
I want to move this shape from left to right, and I want to place it in here.
And now I want to reduce the lines.
Okay, you can see we have successfully placed a line in here.
And now I want to use the text part.
And for using the text part here is the text option.
And inside the search box you have to type.
You have to type and you just have to type hand in that.
In that case you will get the handwriting relevant font or text style over here.
So you just have to type the hand and then you have to hit the enter button.
Okay.
So you can see there are lots of options are available.
So I want to use this one.
That's six hand black I'm going to use this one.
And I want to I want to change the text color I want to use this white color.
And now let me increase the size you can see.
Okay, I want to place my title over here.
And let me write Mickie James.
Okay.
And now I want to I want to put a title and therefore I want to use this, this handy casual text font.
And let me increase the size.
And let me write beauty expert and I have to change the color.
You have to select it and then you have to change the text color.
I'm using this white color okay.
And now I want to I want to place this beauty expert text here and let me increase the size of the name.
And I want to place the text in here okay.
Looks good.
So this is what I was looking to do.
And you can see we have placed a nice, uh, Facebook offer and we we made a combination of five different
photos with blur effect.
Okay.
So let's do some practice.
And if you do practice, then you will also be familiar with the use of blur effect.
Because the new things we just learned in this lesson.
So let's do some practice.
And I'm expecting you to have you in my next lesson.
