Canva Tips for bossed-Up Graphics💻

Hey Digital Empire Fam— whether you're designing for your store, social media, or your next digital product, good design = more sales. Period.

Here are 5 🔥 graphic design tips to help you level up your visuals inside Canva:

1. Use Consistent Brand Fonts & Colors--Choose 2 fonts MAX — one for headlines and one for body text. Stick to 2–3 brand colors and use them everywhere to create that pro, cohesive look.

2. Keep It Clean, Not Cluttered--Less is more. Don’t overload your designs with too many elements. White space = luxury feel. Let your message breathe.

3. Use Smart Alignment--Canva's gridlines and "snap" feature are your besties. Aligned text and elements make your designs feel polished and intentional.

4. Use Mockups for Your Digital Products--Turn flat designs into clickable, scroll-stopping visuals. Mockups add that "real product" feel and increase trust + conversions.

(PS: There are free mockups in the RBA classroom if you need them!) Also see #Using a Product Mockup tutorial

5. Tap Into Canva’s Templates — Then Make Them Yours--Templates are great starting points but customize them to match your brand. Swap colors, change fonts, replace stock images — make it YOU.

🖼️ Bonus: Always preview your design on mobile before downloading — what looks good on desktop might be off on a phone screen.
