As a designer, at first I really resisted using Canva but that's because I felt like you should use other tools over one like this. But that's the advantage really of using Canva...anyone can use it! Now I steer all my clients towards it because it's easy and accessible for everyone. Love that you mention that you don't have to be a designer. Kinda bummed that the folders aren't available for the free version, though.

[@MarleyJaxx]

Yes, if you want to create something that doesn't require you to be a designer Canva can help you with that. :-)

Loved the tutorial. My question is how can you get text to wrap around a pic. I cant find the wrap function. I'm not talking about adjusting the text so that it forms around the image but the much simpler question of how to insert a picture so that the text adjusts around it.

There's a tool that you can move the text behind or forward, but not sure about wrapping!
