How to create a journal using Canva for the actual Amazon
0:04
And this step-by-step tutorial, guys, I'm going to show you what we can do. So Canba is an amazing place to start designing almost everything and totally for free
0:13
Of course, there are a few elements that you want to use if you have Camber Pro or if you want to have those elements you want to have Camber Pro
0:19
That's why I'm going to leave you a link down below in the description. So you can have your Camber totally free for the next 30 days without having to pay absolutely anything
0:28
So with that being said, let's just your umbrella right. into it. If you don't know what this actually Amazon Kendall is, well, this is an e-book where you
0:35
can use to buy some different e-books and you can use them to see those into Kendall. So the
0:41
amazing part is that now we can be able to self-publish ebooks totally for free. So how does this
0:47
actually works? All right. So as you can see, I'm into kdp.amson.com. If you have already a Amazon
0:53
account, what you want to do is to sign in. And here, what you want to do is to start to create
0:59
your own account in order to start selling some direct publishing Kindle. And the very
1:05
amazing part of this is that we don't have to spend absolutely anything because we just want
1:10
to make the deside and the this side is totally for free into Canba. So first of all, I'm going to go
1:15
into KDP.am.com and I want to go into sign in with my Amazon account. So now as you can see
1:21
we are now into the setup. Into the setup, it's just really easy to set up your actually stuff
1:26
We just need to provide a lot of information as you can. And here we can just create, manage, and published
1:32
So if I hit into the option that says to create, here we can start to create our very first digital product
1:39
So here I want to look out for the actual Kindle eBook, which is actually this one
1:43
I'm going to type Create Ebook. There we go. So it's going to be popping up all the new elements
1:48
so I can start working here into the KDP. As you can see, it's going to be asking me for the language
1:53
the book title, the series, if there a series part of series the edition number the author the contributors the description the publishing rights and much more So you going to be feeling that later we want to focus actually into how we can start
2:08
a actual journal. So what I want to do is to go back into Canba
2:12
Now that we're here into Canba, what you want to do is to look out for the amazing tool
2:16
called the template. Now into the template, if I locate them above the projects and below the home, here is template
2:24
And what I want to do is to look out for Amazon. and I want to look out for a journal
2:28
These are a keywords, they're gonna be helping me to look out for the most template
2:33
the best templates that I can start to use them for my actual journal
2:37
So for example, here's a journal, school journal, and much more. So as you can see, it says notebook templates
2:44
I'm gonna scroll a little bit down, notebook cover templates. So I think that this one can be really useful for us
2:50
We have the journal templates. So here I want to look for, let's say for example, this one that says gratitude
2:55
And if you like this, that actual template, you want to choose the option that says customize this template
3:01
And there we go. So now we can get started here into our actual document
3:06
So what I want to do is to change the actual title. Let's see, for example, instead of gratitude
3:10
I want to double click. And as you can see into the upper side, these tools are going to be
3:15
helping me to edit my element. So I'm going to first change the actual text. I'm going to go for
3:21
journal. And I'm going to just close the mouse. There. So if I make this a little bit more like this, it's going to be added text by text
3:31
So I want to locate this as it was before, like that
3:36
And as you can see, we do have the guidelines. They're going to be helping me to make this a little bit more with the symmetric stuff
3:42
So there we go. Now if I go into Add Page, I can go into Design
3:47
And here to Design, if I choose the actual design that I just selected, for example, the all results
3:52
I can start by creating an actual journal with my, notebook template for example this one Add a new page Here is my actual journal And instead of choosing the option to this journal I want to delete all of these elements Or I can choose another template if I don
4:09
want to see this. There we have it. So I'm going to choose these five minutes journaling and I'm going to
4:14
change the actual text like this. And I'm going to make this a bit smaller. There we go. So lastly
4:20
guys, as you can see, there's an element here of a plant. So I'm going to choose this one and I'm
4:25
I'm gonna delete it. I want to look for something that's more accurate
4:28
of my actual hotbook cover. We go into elements. Now here into elements, what I want to do
4:34
is to look out for the actual keyword of my document of the design that I'm just creating
4:40
In my case, I want to look out for some peas, or I don't know, maybe I'm gonna type just for peas
4:45
So as you can see, there's actually a lot, really, really a lot of tools
4:49
So I'm gonna look out for, let's say, this one. So I clicked the, and what I want to do
4:55
is to just drag them and drop where we actually were leave this
5:00
So I think that I do have an idea. I want to choose actually this element to input that in here
5:07
So I'm going to leave it like that. So I'm going to choose this element. I'm going to make this a little bit more big enough
5:11
And then later, I'm going to go into the right click. I'm going to send this to the back
5:17
And I'm going to change the transparency up to like 30%. So we have more stylistic here, our jodel, right
5:24
So since this is a journal, I want to duplicate this page
5:28
There we go. So instead of five-minute journaling, I'm going to change that for 10-minute journaling
5:34
And after that, I'm going to go into this part, which says grid view
5:39
And as you can see, there's all of my document. So what I want to do, let's say that I want to choose all of this element
5:45
And what I want to choose to copy and paste so I can see more elements of my journal
5:50
So now as you can see, I now have all my document already been ready. So what is left to be done I going to go here into Amazon KDP as you can see we want to scroll all our way down So now as you can see it going to be asking for our KDP content guidelines and we can upload a KPF file or a duct file to contain the anterior content for
6:13
our Kindlebook. So if you're not really sure how you can import this, what I can install this is just
6:17
do is to choose the option you can use Kindle Create to change from your manuscript
6:21
with a professional book themes, images and table content, dial-work for version totally for free
6:26
So after you choose that, let's say for example, I'm going to type the upload e Uponbook manuscript
6:32
And of course you want to make sure that you want to download out the very first page, which is only this one
6:38
I want to download out this as a JPG file so I can use this for my actual cover of my document
6:46
After you import all your information, I'm going to hit into Save and Continuum
6:50
And lastly, we need to provide, of course, the actual price of our element
6:55
And lastly, guys, you can see that we are now into the actual last section we can just set up our pricing
7:01
So here what I want to do is to choose all the territories if you wanted to. You want to choose your primary marketplace
7:07
And here what I want to do is to lease my price of my item. Let's say, for example, $3. And this is the amount of money we're going to be getting each time I sell an item, for example
7:16
Here's like $1, just $1. If you want to have more, I can show this just to update your budget
7:22
But in my case, I think we're actually good to go. After that, hit into publish your Kindle eBook, and the savings should be added by the way
7:30
Without being said, guys, this is how we can start to submit our Kindle eBook
7:34
We just need to wait till the next 72 hours for the title to be available for the purchase into Amazon
7:40
and we're actually good to go. So hopefully, guys, this was a very useful video
