A few members have mentioned wanting to learn how to use Canva. To figure out where to start, I’d love to get a better grasp on where everyone’s at in their knowledge of Canva. 💡 When you think about using Canva, which statement feels most like you? Choose which fits you best 👇 or tell me something specific you’d love to learn! The goal is to find out how basic (or advanced) we should make any future Canva tutorials so everyone can feel comfortable and confident creating. 💕 BTW, if you'd rather use Photoshop, please let me know in the comments below, along with the # that fits you best (substituting Photoshop for Canva)
