Simplifying Design for Bloggers newsletter: A weekly dose of all things Canva to go from blog to business.

If there was a way to do something faster, would you do it?

What if that way would show you things you probably wouldn’t have seen on your own? A combination, perhaps, that your mind wouldn’t have thought of.

That’s how we feel about these design generators.

We can design faster so we have more time to spend on high ROI tasks AND see pairings and combinations that we might not have thought would look good together!

In this week's blog post, we share our top FREE design generators perfect for bloggers who want a jumping-off point or design inspiration!

We'll break down each NEW Magic tool using step-by-step video tutorials over the coming weeks in our Facebook group so you know exactly how to use it for your blog.

Keep in mind only a portion of the Magic tools are available for free Canva users.

If something helps you design easier, faster, or even better, just think of all the extra time you'll have to spend growing your blog... especially in areas that matter MOST!

Upgrading to Canva Pro has been one of the best investments we made in our business. And at just $14.99 a month (or $119/yr), there is no excuse not to!
