Making a front and back book cover in Canva is easy!

First, open Canva and sign up for a free account. Then, click on the “Create a design” button and select “Book cover.”

Next, you will be prompted to choose a template. For this tutorial, we will be choosing a blank template. Once you have selected your template, it’s time to start customizing your book cover!

PRO TIP: This note is to warn you about the possible risks of using Canva to make a front and back book cover. While Canva is a great tool for many things, it is important to be aware that it does have its limitations. One such limitation is that it does not allow for bleed, which means that your book cover may not print correctly if you use this service. Additionally, while Canva offers a wide variety of templates and tools, it is important to remember that not all of these will be suitable for creating a book cover. As such, it is important to take the time to find a template that is specifically designed for this purpose. Finally, while Canva is generally a very user-friendly platform, it is always worth taking the time to read the instructions carefully before you begin working on your project.

On the left-hand side of the screen, you will see a toolbar with various options. You can use these options to add text, images, and shapes to your book cover. For this tutorial, we will be adding text and an image.

To add text, simply click on the “Text” option in the toolbar and type in your desired text. You can then use the “Format” options to change the font, color, size, etc.

of your text. To add an image, click on the “Uploads” option in
the toolbar and select an image from your computer. You can also upload images from Dropbox or Google Drive.

Once you have added all of the elements you want to your book cover, it’s time to download it! Click on the “Download” button in the top-right corner of the screen and select your desired file format.

That’s it! You’ve now successfully created a front and back book cover in Canva.
