Video to assist with editing your Canva purchase from Etsy
People & Blogs
Introduction
In this article, we will guide you through the editing process of your purchased asset from Etsy, whether it's a rose gold or silver design. The editing capabilities are the same for both variations, allowing you to customize various elements of the house as you see fit.
Customization Options
When editing your design, you can click on the roof or the main body of the house to change it to a plain color. To assist users, I've provided variations in the file, ensuring that everyone understands that specific elements can be altered. You have the freedom to change the house body to any color of your choice.
Logo Integration
Included in my logo pack, you'll find a logo available in the PDF under the branding kit section. You can utilize this logo, or if you prefer, simply drag in your own logo as the asset features a picture frame.
Profile Photo Editing
A common concern while editing is getting the perfect profile photo. For example, if you take a headshot, you might find that the hair gets cut off when you attempt to adjust its size and position. To resolve this, follow these steps:
- Click the Add Page button.
- Import your photo.
- If your headshot has limited space around the neck and shoulders, position the photo lower in the frame.
- Utilize the BG Remover feature; this is a pro function, but if you don't have Canva Pro, you can use the pink button to upload and get a transparent background image easily—this process takes just a couple of seconds.
- Opt for a neutral background color—using E6E6E6 works well for this purpose.
- Resize the photo to leave ample space around the edges.
- Download the specific page with your adjusted photo.
Once your edited profile photo is downloaded, upload it back into your project. By double-clicking it, you can now adjust and move the photo around without worrying about hair being clipped or improperly fit.
By following these steps, you’ll end up with a better profile photo that fits seamlessly into your design, providing a polished look that resembles the initial concept of your purchase.
If you have any questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
