This tutorial is a MUST for anyone who is just getting started with Canva. Natalia Kalinska is such a great teacher and she makes it fun to learn! All her tutorials are excellent!
@ Natalia Kalinska - Suggestion: Since your on screen cursor is very small and difficult to see, and some of us are completely new to Canva, it would be very helpful as we follow along, if you would be more specific in your instructions. For example, at 9:01 you are speaking of ways to start a design from a blank design. You say the first and easiest way is to click the button "right here". Perhaps you could say "click the button here at the top right." I had to replay that section (and others) multiple times to actually find where you were clicking. Sometimes I never did find where you clicked to bring up certain sections of Canva. I realize that I must explore Canva myself, but when watching an instructional video I like to take detailed notes. I found that difficult to do in some parts of your video. I do appreciate your work though. Thank you.
Agree. I make this suggestion all the time. She is great but VERY knowledgeable and most of us are not. This is like trying for a PhD in 2 hours!. My repeated suggestion to all online teachers, especially RUclips is to SHOW us - don't just TELL us. Make your cursor as big and visible as you can and when you move it SHOW us where you moved it (and clicked it). This is a GREAT video and she obviously loves what she does. That I envy.
Thanks! This is a big help for me! I am a retired senior who has found Canva through my granddaughter and trying to learn it in order to do fb and social media for my local garden club. This is a big help to me.❤
This makes my heart so so warm, Marie! ❤️ I cannot even express how much it means to me since this has been my goal all along - to empower others, help develop their skills so that they can pursue their passions and build thriving communities. I’m so thrilled you’re exploring Canva and connecting your club better. All the best to you on your journey and thank you so much for your support! ❤️✨🙏🏻
Thank you so much for this! I work for a small company that is really struggling to keep up with social media, so I suggested Canva but have not used it much myself. I really loved the pace of this video, and the pace in which you explained every part. You are a great communicator!

I've started digital marketing 6 weeks ago. I just watched the other tutorial from 2 years ago and was so helpful. Im so watching this right now because i knoe it will be worth it. Thanks Natalia i will be watching all your content in the next few days.
Oh wow, you’re on a roll then! Thank you again, it really means a lot to me that you’re learning from my content 🙏🏻 If there’s anything missing from my channel that you’d like to see, please let me know. I’m always open to suggestions! And of course, all the best on your digital marketing journey - you got this, really! 🍀🙌
Canva has always seemed so intimidating and overwhelming! You have demystified this application and all its functionality. Thank you Thank you Thank you! Excellent Presentation.
Dear Natalia, I have just watched your Canva video, that was posted 2 years ago. I really liked it! U speak and express yourself very clearly, I'm not an IT woman and a fresher on this field, and could follow you, so it means for me- you do it pretty well, girl!! I made up my mind to watch other videos of you, when I run into this One- u have just posted now! What a coincidence! Thanks a lot!! I appreciate your job and all the effort you put into it. You are the person is worth to watch! Sophia
Dear Sophia, that's such a lovely comment, thank you so much for your kind words! 🥰 I'm so happy you've found the tutorial clear and easy to follow - that's always my goal and it's great that it worked out this time too. All the best to you on your Canva journey and if you ever have any questions, feel free to give me a shout. I'm always happy to help. Appreciate you, Sophia 🙏✨
Natalia. Your work is exceptional! The best comprehensive tutorials for Canva that I have found. Highly organized, helpful perspectives and insights, along with very high production value and taste! Great vibe. Thank you.
Extraordinarily talented and generous. Thank you, Natalia, you are a blessing! And, yes, please, a tutorial on presentations would be very appreciated.
Oh, I agree, I use it so much for all kinds of things! Sometimes I think I should chill a little because I’m spending way too much time in it 😅 I can’t help it though, it’s so versatile. Anyways, thank you so much for watching! ✨
Great video! Just wanted to let you know that the timestamps for this video are not showing up in the actual video player properly because the first timestamp after the Intro starts at 2 hours.
Thank you for this tutorial on Canca. I struggled to create some designs on Canca and came across your video. You have taken the time to explain every step and made it make sense to the average person. I pray that God continues to bless you!
Well done Natalia! I'm attempting to do my own marketing for my businesses and was extremely helpful! Your gate was perfect for me!! Thanks again and God bless you!
This makes me so happy! Thank you so much for watching Peter! ✨ I really appreciate your support and of course, all the best to you on your journey 🍀 If there’s anything you’d like to learn from me down the line, just give me a shout, I’m always open to new suggestions for videos 🙏🏻
Miss Natalia, I appreciate you putting this video together. I am a beginner in Canva and I felt over whelmed by having to learn it. You made it seem so easy to me. Love the fact that you put in chapters and speed of your voice. I will probably play it a couple more times so that it sinks in better. Just want to say thank you and keep up the good work.
That means so much to me, Robin! Thank you for your kind words and I'm so thrilled that this tutorial is making things much easier for you. That was the goal all along! I've also just published a simplified 10-minute Canva tutorial so it might be worth a look before you jump back into this longer one. Thank you so much for watching and if you ever feel like you want to learn something that you can't find on the channel, just give me a shout 🙌 I'm always open to suggestions! Happy designing and you got this!
i have been using Canva for one year, and i enjoy this tool. It helps me create videos, posters, design ideas, etc., for business. It is easy and gets results in less time
I have been trying with Canva for 3 weeks and doing lots of tutorials, this is by far ther best. I love Natalie saying I will revisit that later because it becomes easier to apply with more of the applications shown first. I love this. Thank you. I have subscribed to your channel.
Thank you so much for this video. I'm just getting started with social media content and as a retired nurse I know little to nothing about using CANVA. Your tutorial was very informative and I learned a lot.
Natalia, This is the second time I have watched this information packed video. The first time I had just signed up for Canva and honestly some of it was way over my head. However, I did realize I would need Canva Pro. I began just playing around and learning bits and pieces. Fast forward several months and I watched it again. This time I GOT IT! I will continue to binge watch your videos and try out the different features as I go. Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi Natalia Thank you for showing me that I can actually be good with graphics design. I followed you step by step and I’m very proud of what I have created as a newbie. I have been relying on templates, now I can do my social media management easily.
Wonderful and since I have only done powerpoint I feel like I am learning from scratch. You made this lesson well worth the time. I will have to watch it again but I will get it. Thank you so much.
You have just put the biggest smile on my face, Judy ❤️ Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and I’m so thrilled that you’ve found this tutorial useful. By all means, take your time with it and practice as much as you can, but you got this! ✨
I am looking for the organizing your files now. I am not good at organizing but I am a great speaker/trainer. Thanks for saying how iportant it is to START by filing right in the beginning. I will watch that one today.@@NataliaKalinska
Straight to action, that's what I love to hear! 😊 Canva is so fun to explore and play with so you'll learn in no time. I'm super happy that this tutorial was helpful to you and good luck on your journey!
I just got to know about Canva and I found it interesting , so I decided to spend whole day to watch all the video about it . Your video very much useful to me . Really appreciate it .
Wow, talk about answering your own question. I just found all of the features you touched upon ine the Canva Design School under my personal information tab on the far top right of the home page. I am sure that between your training videos and the Canva tutorials I will learn a lot fast. Again, thank you for your good work Natalia.
Just go the end of the Canva for BEGINNERS, it took me ages and not sure that I will remember it all but learning so getting quicker. I would love a design and brand course as never done it.
This video alone is a gold mine for Canva learners.. Thank you for this.. I'm feeling short of words to appreciate the amount of efforts you've put. Great Job. Kudos
Hi Natalia. I am new to all this on Canva and not digitally savvy either. Your voice is clear and you have a nice way of explaining things. I stopped after the first 18 minutes and felt like asking this: Do you have any videos, where you show - slowly - how to design one picture and where you also show all the names on that narrow list above? I saw the tiny arrow touching, clicking here and there, but not on which names. Let´s say I´d create a cat with a bow around its throat sitting on a sofa and the text : " We will look after your pet" as if this would be a template for a pet shop. This would be a great help for a beginner. Thank you.
Dziękuję! I've been using Canva for a couple of months now and I still can't comprehend how many options there are, I love it! I knew quite a few things you showed but some other tips will be very useful in the future. Thanks again, for this very in-depth tutorial :)
Natalia, thank you for this clear and concise video! I am coordinating marketing for an individual and wonder if I can plan posts to their social media as well as my own; would you please provide some guidance about that? Additionally, in the video you mentioned that you could provide more in-depth information about templates Is that offer still viable? If so, I would appreciate you sharing that with me. Again, thak you for this video, it is extremely valuable.
Hello Ms.Natalia, Thank you for your info about Canva. It is the first time l've watched your video to learn how to use canva. I'm satisfied with your video.
Thank you so much! I was struggling with creating a CV (Resume) with word and doc until I remembered Canva and finished it but wanted to know more in depth knowledge around Canva so thank you, beautifully explained.
@@NataliaKalinska Thank you, yeah I'm a Software Developer and I'm already in a job but I just needed to update my CV and your tutorial really did help me out! Definitely subscribing ☺ thank you once again ♥
Thanks for this video tutorial Natalia and trying to pay attention it was hard because long video's challenge my attention span. Canva is my favourite design tool. Love 🥰 the video and love 💞 Natalia.
Thank you so much for being here, David! 🤗 I can definitely relate to the shrinking attention span and I struggle with it a lot too. That's exactly why I went very detailed with the chapters for this video so that it's easy to come back to when you're ready 🙌 I'm so happy you like Canva as much as I do and I can promise I'll keep posting the usual shorter tutorials too. All the best to you, David! 🥰
Natalia, K. Really, your presentation was so impressive, and pretty good, thank you very much indeed!!!! please keep it up. Thank you for your assistant, I love it.
Thanks Natalia. As a beginner I googled through pages and pages of Canva courses few if any offering a comprehensive and carefully explained course like yours. Till now I created all my 4 minute Global Issues videos on Adobe Spark but then they just upgraded it from simple to very complicated. My Canva needs are different from most of your students I guess. I want only to create videos for RUclips - composed of a mix of text and images and video clips - so for the moment two thirds of Canva's features are irrelevant for me. But I need a template. You did invite people wanting to create a Template to contact you and here I am. I want to create one Yt template with the same size screen, identical size and font text and a corner page logo - if possible without going at this stage to Pro. I am contactable on my Yt channel. Thank you again for that tremendous course
Thank you so much for your kind words, Anton! 🙌 I'm glad you think it's a thorough enough tutorial. If you're looking for a video editing tutorial, I have one on my channel already: ruclips.net/video/fZ6zfwkyxbk/видео.html. Although it's based on a talking head style video, the principles shown would be the same for what you need. In terms of the video for creating templates, you can find it here: ruclips.net/video/IMG5zUFrWxM/видео.html but I think you're potentially looking for something a bit different. What you talk about can be achieved without going Pro so I hope the video editing tutorial can give you a better insight. I hope it helps!
Thank you sooooo much! I got it! I'm a new Canva Pro subscriber and I really needed this!!!!! I will definitely watch for other videos from you Natalia!
Hi Nitalia, you are such an amazing woman please thank you so much for your kind heart. I’ve never sat so long and listen to somebody teach. You have an amazing spirit. Please keep it up I would like to learn more on a dating video dating and also presentation and blog writing. Thanks.
I love this video. She is so amazing. She shows you everything you need to know about canva, and she explains it so well. I hope she has more videos on other programs. Thank you for sharing this video. I appreciate it, and I appreciate you. Many thanks 😊
Thank you Natalia, you are a very good instructor and very pleasant to listen for 2 hrs. I'm starting a pressure washing business and bough the Canvas Pro. I'm interested in flyers and brochures for the pressure washing business. any Ideas or tutorial would be appreciated.
This makes me so happy! 😊✨ Thank you so much for watching and I’m very glad it was useful to you. Happy New Year and good luck on your content journey 🍀🥳
Thank you so much for watching and I’m glad it was helpful to you! I have a whole playlist with Canva tips and tricks where I mix beginner and advanced/Pro level content. Might be worth checking out 😊 All I can say is practice as much as you can and design for fun! Soon enough, you’ll get the hang of it. You got this! 🍀
Dear Natalia your Canva tutorials have been a great help to as I didn't know much about Canva. Do you have a video about how to convert a real photo such as a lion ( not a graphic) to a colouring page please? Do I need to convert the photo to a graphic first, and then to a colouring page please? Sorry I'm getting myself very confused about how to do this. Thanks so much Jo
Amazing tutorial. A lot of ground covered here. I've been a user for a couple months now but found some real gems inside. You answered a bunch of questions I'd been struggling with. Thanks!!
Looking great so far Natalia. FYI I have spent days trying to get my CANVA screen looking like yours and every other instructors'. My left panel and top bar were different. I use a PC with W11 and Edge so I tried CHROME. That was better - looked like yours. Went back to Edge - same problem. I noticed to date I had been signed in using a non-Gmail account I have (as I was when in Chrome). After signing off and then back in on Edge using my gmail ID - everything was good again!. Hope this might help some people.
Dear Natalia, thank you so much for this excellent master course for canva beginner. Would you share a video on how do you make this circle video course? This is also a wonderful production!
Thank you for such a well developed training video. It is the best training video I have found on RUclips to date. Canva has changed it's look since your video. The features and functions you describe in the beginning are no longer in the places you are locatiing them; this makes a bit more challenging to keep up with you, wherein, I have to use the search engine to locate the functions. Is using the Canva search engine the best suggestions for how to navigate and keep up with your training video?
Fantastic. You know your stuff. Love the enthusiasm. You could have been on their design team! Must have taken many months of playing to get to know it this well. Will watch others you make. Thanks The Brewster Block
Very helpful, I appreciate the detail you went into, as a newbie. I did find your mouse swirling quite distracting though - had to go back several times to see what you actually clicked vs. swirling. (just me, I'm sure... 🙂)
Very helpful information and well-explained. My only problem was your cursor moved so fast to where you were talking about, I had a hard time seeing where you actually were on the editing panel etc. I slowed the speed down to try to catch up. Otherwise, it was excellent, thorough and clearly explained. thank you.
I cant understand Canva, so here goes... glad I found you xx Update,, had a go, learning really slow but think Canva hax potential... will keep going now, watch youn video again and again xx
Natasha, this was an amazing quick way to use Canva for the first time. Is there a way for you to post Cntrl Shortcuts and also longer Video edits?! I would greatly apprecate it!
I’m so happy you’ve found it useful! 🙏🏻✨ I have a tutorial on Canva video editing, you can find it here: ruclips.net/video/fZ6zfwkyxbk/видео.html. I’ll also post the shortcuts infographic on my Instagram soon so I’ll link it here too 😊
You are an absolutel Ángel , i am so grateful to have found you channel , this video is all i needed to learn Canva and every beginner, thank you so much ❤️✨
So glad to find you're channel "I got this" ... subscribed ... an wonderful good overview of Canvas and it's applicability ... looking forward to diving into your channel ... thank you again!!
I mean the chapter markers above the playhead@@NataliaKalinska ! For me the intro runs until 01:56:00 and then there's markers/chapters. Is that a thing only occuring at my end??
⏩ Get CANVA PRO for FREE for 30 DAYS 🥳natalia.link/canva ⏪ (the 45-day trials have now been discontinued by Canva)
Invalid code
It usually happens when you have previously used a free Canva trial. Could this be the case?
If I try the Canva Free version first then decide to try the Pro version, am I still able to use the Canva Free for 45 days? Thanks
I want to talk to you, are you available?
You forgot to tell every one one even more emportant thing than a video it self - are we entitled for copy right and comercial licence ?!
This tutorial is a MUST for anyone who is just getting started with Canva. Natalia Kalinska is such a great teacher and she makes it fun to learn! All her tutorials are excellent!

I'm using CANVA for so many things, but I want to narrow it down. Thanks for all your help and expertise.
Do you need the Canva pro link to have full access to it?
Awesome
Oh, I agree, I use it so much for all kinds of things! Sometimes I think I should chill a little because I’m spending way too much time in it 😅 I can’t help it though, it’s so versatile. Anyways, thank you so much for watching! ✨
No, you don’t! Free Canva is actually awesome 😎
Thank you so much!
Great video! Just wanted to let you know that the timestamps for this video are not showing up in the actual video player properly because the first timestamp after the Intro starts at 2 hours.
Thank you so much and wow, great catch! It’s been up all this time and I haven’t even realized so big thanks for the heads up 🙌 Really appreciate it!

Hi Natalia
Thank you for showing me that I can actually be good with graphics design. I followed you step by step and I’m very proud of what I have created as a newbie. I have been relying on templates, now I can do my social media management easily.
Wonderful and since I have only done powerpoint I feel like I am learning from scratch. You made this lesson well worth the time. I will have to watch it again but I will get it. Thank you so much.
You have just put the biggest smile on my face, Judy ❤️ Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and I’m so thrilled that you’ve found this tutorial useful. By all means, take your time with it and practice as much as you can, but you got this! ✨
I am looking for the organizing your files now. I am not good at organizing but I am a great speaker/trainer. Thanks for saying how iportant it is to START by filing right in the beginning. I will watch that one today.@@NataliaKalinska
I'm just getting to know Canva which I've had for a while. This video has helped my tremendously. Thanks! NOW to start playing.
Straight to action, that's what I love to hear! 😊 Canva is so fun to explore and play with so you'll learn in no time. I'm super happy that this tutorial was helpful to you and good luck on your journey!
Great tutorial. First time I watched a two hour tutorial from start to the end. THANKS - very helpful!
I just got to know about Canva and I found it interesting , so I decided to spend whole day to watch all the video about it . Your video very much useful to me . Really appreciate it .
Wow, talk about answering your own question. I just found all of the features you touched upon ine the Canva Design School under my personal information tab on the far top right of the home page. I am sure that between your training videos and the Canva tutorials I will learn a lot fast. Again, thank you for your good work Natalia.
Just go the end of the Canva for BEGINNERS, it took me ages and not sure that I will remember it all but learning so getting quicker. I would love a design and brand course as never done it.
This video alone is a gold mine for Canva learners.. Thank you for this.. I'm feeling short of words to appreciate the amount of efforts you've put. Great Job. Kudos
Hi Natalia. I am new to all this on Canva and not digitally savvy either. Your voice is clear and you have a nice way of explaining things. I stopped after the first 18 minutes and felt like asking this: Do you have any videos, where you show - slowly - how to design one picture and where you also show all the names on that narrow list above? I saw the tiny arrow touching, clicking here and there, but not on which names. Let´s say I´d create a cat with a bow around its throat sitting on a sofa and the text :
" We will look after your pet" as if this would be a template for a pet shop. This would be a great help for a beginner. Thank you.
Dziękuję! I've been using Canva for a couple of months now and I still can't comprehend how many options there are, I love it! I knew quite a few things you showed but some other tips will be very useful in the future. Thanks again, for this very in-depth tutorial :)
Natalia, thank you for this clear and concise video! I am coordinating marketing for an individual and wonder if I can plan posts to their social media as well as my own; would you please provide some guidance about that? Additionally, in the video you mentioned that you could provide more in-depth information about templates Is that offer still viable? If so, I would appreciate you sharing that with me. Again, thak you for this video, it is extremely valuable.
Hello Ms.Natalia, Thank you for your info about Canva. It is the first time l've watched your video to learn how to use canva. I'm satisfied with your video.
Thanks . Great tutorial. I have been on your channel since the morning. I was glued to your video. I was clear, well explained, and comprehensive.
Agreed! Everything was clear, well-explained, and comprehensive.
Dziekuje Natalia - great tips
Cieszę się, że się podoba, Marzena 😊 I appreciate you!
Hi Natalie, I have trying many Canva tutorials. But this is d best tutorial. Thank you so much for this !!!li💐💐
Thank you so much Rodrigo! That means a lot and I’m happy you’ve found so much value here 🙏🏻✨
Thank you for taking such great efforts in making this wonderful tutorial!🎉
I’m so thrilled it was useful to you! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment 🙏🏻✨
Thanks Natalia, great video. You have a great presence and you are very thorough. Thank you!!!☺️
That’s so wonderful to hear Leslie, thank you so much and I’m so thrilled it was helpful to you! Happy designing ✨😊
Thank you so much! I was struggling with creating a CV (Resume) with word and doc until I remembered Canva and finished it but wanted to know more in depth knowledge around Canva so thank you, beautifully explained.
Yesss, that’s so awesome! 🙌 I’m so glad you’ve found this tutorial useful and good luck on your job hunt ✨ Thank you for watching! 🙏🏻
@@NataliaKalinska Thank you, yeah I'm a Software Developer and I'm already in a job but I just needed to update my CV and your tutorial really did help me out! Definitely subscribing ☺ thank you once again ♥
Thanks for this video tutorial Natalia and trying to pay attention it was hard because long video's challenge my attention span. Canva is my favourite design tool. Love 🥰 the video and love 💞 Natalia.
Thank you so much for being here, David! 🤗 I can definitely relate to the shrinking attention span and I struggle with it a lot too. That's exactly why I went very detailed with the chapters for this video so that it's easy to come back to when you're ready 🙌 I'm so happy you like Canva as much as I do and I can promise I'll keep posting the usual shorter tutorials too. All the best to you, David! 🥰
I love how you share the screen and explain everything, I'm also wondering if you give one on one tutorial..thank u
Finally, watched this 2 hr course. Indeed it's beginner friendly,, and I must say thank you for taking your time to explain all this!
you are an outstanding teacher - thank you
That’s so kind of you, thank you so much Ani! It means a lot to me 🙏🏻✨
Natalia, K. Really, your presentation was so impressive, and pretty good, thank you very much indeed!!!! please keep it up. Thank you for your assistant, I love it.
This was really helpful! Very comprehensive tutorial! I would love to see a Canva Whiteboard tutorial next.
I’m so so happy to hear it, Tara! 🙏🏻✨ Thank you for watching and noted about the Whiteboards tutorial. I’ve just added it to my ideas board 🙌
Thanks Natalia. As a beginner I googled through pages and pages of Canva courses few if any offering a comprehensive and carefully explained course like yours. Till now I created all my 4 minute Global Issues videos on Adobe Spark but then they just upgraded it from simple to very complicated. My Canva needs are different from most of your students I guess. I want only to create videos for RUclips - composed of a mix of text and images and video clips - so for the moment two thirds of Canva's features are irrelevant for me. But I need a template. You did invite people wanting to create a Template to contact you and here I am. I want to create one Yt template with the same size screen, identical size and font text and a corner page logo - if possible without going at this stage to Pro. I am contactable on my Yt channel. Thank you again for that tremendous course
Thank you so much for your kind words, Anton! 🙌 I'm glad you think it's a thorough enough tutorial. If you're looking for a video editing tutorial, I have one on my channel already: ruclips.net/video/fZ6zfwkyxbk/видео.html. Although it's based on a talking head style video, the principles shown would be the same for what you need. In terms of the video for creating templates, you can find it here: ruclips.net/video/IMG5zUFrWxM/видео.html but I think you're potentially looking for something a bit different. What you talk about can be achieved without going Pro so I hope the video editing tutorial can give you a better insight. I hope it helps!
Wow! So very helpful and informative! Thank you very much!! I will be sharing with my colleagues.
That’s so wonderful to hear, thank you so much for taking the time to watch and for spreading the word! 😊 Happy New Year! 🥳
Thank you sooooo much! I got it! I'm a new Canva Pro subscriber and I really needed this!!!!! I will definitely watch for other videos from you Natalia!
Hi Nitalia, you are such an amazing woman please thank you so much for your kind heart. I’ve never sat so long and listen to somebody teach. You have an amazing spirit. Please keep it up I would like to learn more on a dating video dating and also presentation and blog writing. Thanks.

Thank you Natalia, you are a very good instructor and very pleasant to listen for 2 hrs. I'm starting a pressure washing business and bough the Canvas Pro. I'm interested in flyers and brochures for the pressure washing business. any Ideas or tutorial would be appreciated.

Thank you so much for watching and I’m glad it was helpful to you! I have a whole playlist with Canva tips and tricks where I mix beginner and advanced/Pro level content. Might be worth checking out 😊 All I can say is practice as much as you can and design for fun! Soon enough, you’ll get the hang of it. You got this! 🍀
Thank you Natalia
Thank you so much Natalia. You are excellent. Clear and concise communication with great tips.
Dear Natalia your Canva tutorials have been a great help to as I didn't know much about Canva. Do you have a video about how to convert a real photo such as a lion ( not a graphic) to a colouring page please? Do I need to convert the photo to a graphic first, and then to a colouring page please? Sorry I'm getting myself very confused about how to do this. Thanks so much Jo
This video was AWESOME! Very clear in delivery and your camera presence is outstanding.
This was top, Natalia. The course has been helpful to me as a beginner- really learnt a lot. I really appreciate your efforts!
That was amazing! The most thorough tutorial I've ever seen.Thank you so much, Natalia!
Amazing tutorial. A lot of ground covered here. I've been a user for a couple months now but found some real gems inside. You answered a bunch of questions I'd been struggling with. Thanks!!
Looking great so far Natalia. FYI I have spent days trying to get my CANVA screen looking like yours and every other instructors'. My left panel and top bar were different. I use a PC with W11 and Edge so I tried CHROME. That was better - looked like yours. Went back to Edge - same problem. I noticed to date I had been signed in using a non-Gmail account I have (as I was when in Chrome). After signing off and then back in on Edge using my gmail ID - everything was good again!. Hope this might help some people.
I would love to see more video on "Branding" and how to pick a color palette. Thanks again.
Very detailed and easy to learn I have really learnt alot . Let me say thank you in swahili - Asante sana because I can't say it in polish. Good day
Dear Natalia, thank you so much for this excellent master course for canva beginner. Would you share a video on how do you make this circle video course? This is also a wonderful production!
Merci bien pour ce Tuto!
De rien, happy to help! ✨
HELLO NATALIA...NEW TO CANVA AND YOUR CHANNEL. THANK YOU FOR SHARING.
Hello Stacey! Thank you so much for being here and all the best on your Canva journey ✨ If you ever have questions, feel free to ask!
THANK YOU@@NataliaKalinska
Thank you for such a well developed training video. It is the best training video I have found on RUclips to date. Canva has changed it's look since your video. The features and functions you describe in the beginning are no longer in the places you are locatiing them; this makes a bit more challenging to keep up with you, wherein, I have to use the search engine to locate the functions. Is using the Canva search engine the best suggestions for how to navigate and keep up with your training video?
Thank you Natalia Kalinska. Really loved your explanation of each part step by step. Love you
I’m so happy it was helpful to you! Sending you big hugs 🤗
Natalia, thank you so much for this! I have been looking for this exact tutorial and it has made me understand Canva a lot more!
Fantastic. You know your stuff. Love the enthusiasm. You could have been on their design team! Must have taken many months of playing to get to know it this well. Will watch others you make. Thanks
The Brewster Block
Very helpful, I appreciate the detail you went into, as a newbie. I did find your mouse swirling quite distracting though - had to go back several times to see what you actually clicked vs. swirling. (just me, I'm sure... 🙂)
Very helpful information and well-explained. My only problem was your cursor moved so fast to where you were talking about, I had a hard time seeing where you actually were on the editing panel etc. I slowed the speed down to try to catch up. Otherwise, it was excellent, thorough and clearly explained. thank you.
Just finished the video and this is sooo helpful. ❤
Thank you so much for watching the whole thing! ❤️ Love to hear that it was helpful and happy designing to you ✨
Dziekuje bardzo! Super profesjonalne tutorial! Pozdrawiam serdecznie :)

Natasha, this was an amazing quick way to use Canva for the first time. Is there a way for you to post Cntrl Shortcuts and also longer Video edits?! I would greatly apprecate it!

Great course, learned a lot:) If I'm allowed to suggest, a navigation would be insanely helpful x
That makes me so happy Kristina, thank you! 🤗 That's very interesting, what do you mean by navigation, if I may ask? x
I mean the chapter markers above the playhead@@NataliaKalinska ! For me the intro runs until 01:56:00 and then there's markers/chapters. Is that a thing only occuring at my end??
perfect tutorial to help build confidence in starting to use these tools.. respect..
Thank you! Very helpful - shared it with my colleagues.
Thank you so much for spreading the word, Hasan! I’m glad it’s useful to you and hopefully it will be just as helpful to your colleagues 😊
