Canva has added some new features. I use an image that I created and used it to make an Instagram post. I did add a little on the post. Image prompt: A six-year-old girl with a dark complexion and long brown dreadlocks, depicted in a whimsical cinematic 3D storybook style. She is kneeling amongst vividly glowing, ethereal flowers. Her expression is peaceful, with her hands gently resting over her heart. Her lavender dress emits a soft, faint golden luminescence, contributing to the overall soft magical atmosphere of the scene. Canva came up with the title and "Join us in this Journey"

I was working on this story months ago. I just never finished it. I don't know if I will use the images that I already created or recreate the images in Hedra. When I use Hedra I only create one image. I can use that image. But in Canva, I can get 4 images and sometimes I can't use the image. The prompt used in the Canva image generator A cinematic concept scene, rendered in a 3D animated style, bathed in warm golden hues and soft dappled lighting filtering through ancient, luminous trees. The grove, alive with ancient memory, features trees shimmering with an inner luminescence, their bark intricately carved with glowing symbols. Spiraling stones, etched with faint runes, whisper ancient truths. In the center of the grove, Luna, a young girl with warm, earthy skin and a subtle shimmer, her eyes wide with wonder, tilts her head, listening intently. Beside her, Kai, a young boy with deep brown skin and curly hair, stands in awe, his feet touching the earth. Both children glow softly from within. Above them, within a shimmering portal, Shana, a beautiful African American woman, embodies divine femininity, radiating motherly calmness and gentle curiosity. Her luminous face, composed of stars, is framed by flowing dreadlocks interwoven with tiny glowing threads, cascading like a shimmering river of light. She wears a flowing robe subtly shifting through deep blue, rose gold, and crystal white hues, reflecting her wisdom. She gently releases a radiant golden orb, a seed of light, that drifts downward towards the grove via a bridge of light and music, weaving through clouds. The second image was entered in Hedra with the Canva image generator prompt.
