[@SandraDi]

Thanks for watching!! Did you find this printable planner tutorial in Canva helpful?? Let me now if you have any questions and what kind of planners you want to create! 👇

[@jayhoonn]

sandra can you make how to make free printable powerpoint template on canva thanks so much

[@BlackSoulRhythms]

Yes!! This video is very helpful. Can you show how to create a digital planner with a checklist with items that can be checked? And planner with fields that the user can type in to fill? I have seen these using the form feature in Adobe. Planner can be printed but the feature of being able to fill in online is what I am looking for.

[@SandraDi]

@@BlackSoulRhythms Yes absolutely! I am doing a full tutorial on this next week so stay tuned! :)

Love your videos would love to see the different ways you line things up in more detail, center them, etc. Also, you said you would show how to make sure everything was lined up but it didn't show. Would love to make sure things are centered. When I tidy up things shift to weird positions, love to know how to fix this. Do you tidy first or group first?

[@CCaravasi]

Totally the easiest tutorial ever! I followed along side you and completely a replica for reference! I can’t wait to get started on my own ideas! Thank you for going through the steps! It is so greatly appreciated!!!

[@SandraDi]

Yayyyy I'm so glad to hear that! You're very welcome and I wish you the best of luck!!

[@deegdominguez]

Super helpful and detailed tutorial! I followed step by step making some unique changes along the way to make it my own design. But I spent about 3 hours trying to resize my square into a rectangle! It never worked for me...all I could do was resize the square with the default pink border or black border but the outline was way thicker that I wanted. I did find a nice thin square but canva would not let me resize it from the sides or top or bottom (and I do have canva pro). I finally gave up and ended up making a rectangle with 4 two pixel lines. It was a real bummer, but at least I finished my first official item. Thank you again!!

[@SandraDi]

Yay I'm glad you got your first design done!! That's super exciting :) Good luck on building your shop!!

[@shavonnekish4090]

This tutorial is so thorough and detailed but when I went to do my own it took me forever to pick fonts/designs, then I had a hard time with resizing the squares…the only square to resize is the one where you change the color of the box. I wanted just a square with a black border to change size maybe I didn’t see where to change color box borders I am a new bee 🐝 to this

Hi Sandra, Your videos are so helpful! I have a quick question for you. If I want to make a digital planner that includes weekly and daily sheets do I need to include a page for each day of the year (365) and a page for each week (52) to upload on etsy? Or are people able to duplicate pages digitally?

[@SandraDi]

Hi Ana! Great question!! I will link a video here for you that I did last week on how to do keyword research to narrow down your niche. But to answer your question, you can use Marmalead for research (free trial link is in the description) AND you can search your keyword on Etsy. Take a look at the number of "results" that come up. That will give you an idea of how many listings you are competing against. I talk about this in another video that I have (let me know if you would like that link too) Does that help a little? kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJO2g5WrbL-lh6s
