1. Open [ https://www.canva.com/ ] on your computer or download the app if you are using your phone. Then search for 'Wattpad book cover' for an exact size.

2. You gonna wanna look for some background & face claim. I searched in google the type of images I want. 

3. If you are using any person, go to [ https://www.remove.bg/upload ] and upload your picture. It will remove your background (remember this doesn't work all the time so have another bg remover)

4. Upload your image(s) and set "Set image as background" one of which u want as a background. Also add the PNG you just created (w/ bg remover) and adjust the PNG to your liking. Set that aside for now. 

5. We are editing the bg pic 1st so you can add filter/effect or adjust it however you like. I'm adding an effect name "Scandi" and blurring it a little bit. 

Fun Fact: Canva gives color scheme suggestions when you click on text color based on the images you added. 

6. Write your title or any other words till it fills the page & add spacing if needed. 

7. You gonna wanna click on the 3 dots next to 'effects' and click "position" then"Backward" (Make sure you are sending the text back of the face claim)

8. You can also click on transparency to make the text more blended with the bg. 

9. After adjusting the face claim if this happens, just click on undo

10. Add another text on top of everything. And write your title. Oh, I forgot to tell you but I used 'Lovelo' font. This font always looks good in everything. 

11. Add some fun colors to your text & when you click on "effect" there is some cool text effect. Next, you can add other stuff like [ story by..., any quote ] 

12. Go to Elements and I show the keyword so you can search this element. 

13. Adjust it however you like & use Effects [ Duotone ] to change the color of this element.

Add any other things you find that look nice and that's it!

⬐ This is how it turned out ⬎

I'm a visual learner which is why I added more pics than words, hope that's not a problem for anyone. I wanted to start this with something easy & fun. Hopefully, you learned something (I'm bad at explaining, aren't I?) 

See you next time!
