You can instantly apply a new color, and Canva even suggests a palette based on the images in your design.Great tutorials rely on clear visuals, so upload your screenshots or recordings from the 'Uploads' tab.

Here, we're searching for a 'Handwriting' font, which gives our tutorial a more approachable and personalized feel.Once you find a style that fits your brand, you can apply the new font with a single click.
