Building elements from shapes

Welcome back to my series, Cover to Cover - Canva Edition! In this series, I'll be documenting my process of creating a children's book for my client, using Canva elements.
Thank you to my client, Karen Copeland, for allowing me to use this project for my videos! You can find her books (including her other Titan books) here:

Also, remember, this is an actual copyrighted book. The purpose of this series is for me to share my process with you. When you create your own children’s book, you’ll need to come up with your own unique layouts.
