So, I am a huge fan of Canva, and its capabilities are really astonishing!

There is so much to it, that it really is impossible to see everything that it offers!

However, there are certain aspects that you should be using that will really make your designs stand out.

One of those is the Canva Element section.

There are literally tens of thousands of designs you can use.

Of course, some are restricted to the Pro membership, but the free designs offer enough to keep you amused for hours!

Let's see how you can jazz up your Pinterest pins.

Here we go with a basic design.

I like the wording, but it looks really dull.

Let's try and appeal to female bloggers.

Look to the left and add a search term, how about watercolor?

Now, let's change our basic design and make it a little prettier from all those lovely options!

See how I have added the watercolor splash behind the wording?

How about a boho feather?

Notice how you can be really descriptive when searching for something?

Very eyecatching!

Or maybe some butterflies instead?

And finally, a frame just to add the finishing touch.

Hmm, maybe a step too far, you don't want it to look too cluttered!

But I will leave it in, for the purposes of this post.

Now, just play around with the size and position of the text.

Don't forget to add the name of your website to the pin.

Here's the finished design.

Enjoy!
