@Angela G Hey Angela! I don't make a ton of labels in Canva, however I wonder if it's part of the template you're using? Are the lines part of the background? I'd try two things: First right-click the background and select "detach from background" and see if that does it. Then if that doesn't work, try to unselect the option to add bleeds/print marks on your export. I hope those help!

[@jacquelinesmith3450]

Ditto!

[@aveguevara]

WOW, you're the first tutorial that doesn't glaze me over, but makes me get excited to start designing my website!!!! THANK YOU, you have a new subscriber!!!!

[@tanyacorey8641]

OMG i have just started an Embroidery business. and i looked at Canvas and thought. it was to hard to do, as i have Dyslexia. but after watching your video i think i might be able to design my own templates and business cards. love how you put the scan. code on the back of your business cards for people to go straight to your site. thank you so much. have a follow here for life lol.

[@shinehead69uk]

For a 10-minute video, you covered a lot of useful and interesting info and you did it at a perfect pace for a total newbie. Great tutorial! 😎

[@Whiskeyandwhit]

Glad it was helpful!

@@Whiskeyandwhit Thanks quick question around 6:45, why did you click the Mkre button to get to the QR CODE when there js a button right above that says QR code..don't they take you to the same place or no? And is this the free version of Canva? Because in mine t doesn't show the Mkre button at all I the left menu nor the QR code hitton..I had to click the Apps button to then scroll through to find the QR code button..just wondering..thanks for sharing

[@nancytoledo8039]

Thank you so much for covering the basics--quite a bit, in fact. This is plenty of information to get started.

[@KCorrine]

I created an account after your last Canva video. I have recently started a business and have been working on a logo in Canva. The business card idea was great and I will definitely be checking that out. Thank you for these! Keep them coming!

[@almasmith3271]

It took me almost 2 years to learn how to use my Cricut! It looks like it may take me that long to use Canva! You make it look so easy and may try it when everyone is gone to try. I enjoy watching you and you explain your steps in a clear and concise manner. Thank you.

[@Whiskeyandwhit]

Hey Alma! As long as you're enjoying the learning process, take as much time as you need to learn. I hope you enjoy your foray into designing with Canva :)

[@terimckenzie3780]

Thank you so much! I'm currently trying Canva to brand my business but I am clueless! I always end up so frustrated that I just give up trying to do anything. Although, one of my issues was that I was using my phone and not a computer. You made it look so easy!

Dang! Where's the auction?? You whipped through this so fast I thought I was at a auction. Thanks for the tutorial, just not beginner friendly. Still love your tutorials that you make. 😊

[@Whiskeyandwhit]

Hey Dawn - yes, this is a quicker paced overview than my normal format, but I still feel it's a great way for beginners to get started with the platform. That being said, here's a slower tutorial I have on Canva and how I create my printables, if that's more your speed :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4fRdXise9Z-Z6c Have a great weekend!

[@soleildemiel6252]

I agree

[@soleildemiel6252]

@@Whiskeyandwhit it was too fast! we had to listen, not knowing necessarily what you are talking about and try to follow where you are clicking at the same time. which I missed a few times and then i gave up.. not so great a tutorial for me.

[@Gospelgirl454]

lol, yeah it was fast, I had to go back and rewind a few times myself

[@jenniferw1570]

I agree. I'm glad I'm not the only one. There is relevant information but it would be helpful to stop, pause, and explain each step in a few more seconds instead of through it in a whirlwind. Appreciation, but I've got to search elsewhere.

[@mssaylav1]

Thanks for explaining this. I’m going to use it starting with a flyer.

[@cbkqmom]

THANK YOU! I downloaded Canva because I needed to make a flyer- it’s on my iPad and it was so freaking confusing! Trying to even add text was a nightmare- because of the pencil, there was no keyboard and it would only do one letter at a time- VERTICALLY! lol, I finally closed it and decided to come to KZbin for some instruction. As usual- the pc version looks much easier 😂 Thanks again!

[@Whiskeyandwhit]

I would agree, I prefer the desktop version to the app :)

[@GloryDaze73]

Desktop version is easier

Have you ever done a start to finish step by step to create an online presence for small business? Or do you know of any resources that might teach this old/young dog new tricks! Trying to not lose my sense of humor! Haha I am grateful for any and all tips and recommendations! Thanks Whitney!💚

Hi Donna! I don’t have a video like that, but I do recommend searching Vanessa Lau, she has a ton of content like that :)

[@NaturesFairy]

This was wonderful! You do such a great job explaining Canva. I did something yesterday that I cant figure out how to fix it. Could you help me please? On the Upper Left Side where you type what your searching for,, mine has shrunk to a very narrow strip. I can hardly see whats showing (for text,, video,, elements etc..). I cant figure out how to set it back to normal/larger size. Do you have a video that shows how to adjust the size? Thanks!

But, everytime I go searching for how to... a million things pop up, all seemingly useless... and i swear... I just get burned out while spinning my wheels.
