0:15
It's going to be a very detailed and descriptive video, so please do make sure watch this till the end
0:19
So basically, without further ado, let's get straight into it. So the product, or you could say the platform that we're going to be using for making our digital planner
0:27
is yes, none other than the great Canva.com. Now, Canva.com, as we know, is one of the greatest products out there for today's world
0:39
because as we all know, Canva works wonders when it comes to designing
0:44
Like, billions and billions of people use Canva to make the free designs
0:49
because, you know, it's totally free, and it works like a charm. Like, I'm surprised by how good it works, you know
0:55
So we're going to be talking about this in great detail and great doubt. So please do make sure to watch this video till the end and gain all the knowledge that you can about Canva
1:04
So, yeah, without further ado, let's just get straight into the creation of a digital planner
1:11
Now, if you don't know what a digital planner is, basically, you can go on Etsy
1:14
Etsy, it's a great shop and marketplace for your handmade, vintage custom, or maybe digital PDFs or planners
1:21
And as you can see over here, you have great notes, planners
1:25
stuff like that. And it's just great stuff. So as you can see, people sell it over here and people
1:30
actually get, like these things actually get sold. So as you can see, this person is a star seller
1:36
for a digital planner. And he or she has 95,000 sales. That is crazy. That is an amazing
1:44
absurd amount of sales. And you can see the money this person charges. It's $13.35. So if you
1:50
were to just, you know, go with $13.35 into $95,000. This person makes $1.2 million by just selling a digital planner. Just imagine. Just imagine how
2:04
crazy that is. So yeah, we're going to be teaching how to be making one of these and sell it on like, you know, online
2:11
marketplaces like Etsy or maybe Amazon Journal and stuff like that. So we're going to be, you know
2:15
doing all of this in a jiffy. Now what we're going to do, obviously we're in Canva. Now, if you don't
2:20
know how to use Canva, don't worry, I'm going to be teaching you all that as well. So, yeah
2:25
Now, first of all, when you're here, you're going to see all of this. This is your main home dashboard
2:29
Down here, you're going to see all the designs, all your designs that you made. And over here is, you know, something that you might want to try, different templates that you can mess around with
2:38
Now, on the left-hand side, you have the home project template section. This is pretty basic stuff
2:43
Up here is the design spotlight where you can get all the type of designs that you can use Canva to make
2:49
You know, like you can make your own work suite. You can make documents, presentations, whiteboard
2:55
P-D-F editors, graphs and charts. Then you have photos and videos where you can make video editors
3:00
YouTube video editor, photo editor, photo collages. Then you have the print section where you have business cards
3:06
You have other cards, invitations, mugs, t-shirts, hoodies, calendars, labels, and much more
3:12
And then obviously there's marketing, like logos, posters, flyers, brochures, et cetera
3:16
And obviously you have the business section where you have Canver for Business where you can do content creation, visual communication, brand management, team collab
3:24
plan and schedule content, asset management, you have brainstorming tools in solutions
3:29
you have marketing, you have creative agencies, you have sales, communication, media and publishing
3:34
much more. Then obviously you have resources where you can use case studies, business resources to just
3:40
help yourself, you know, because they're good resources. And then there's the education section where you have teachers and school related stuff
3:47
where you can create and collaborate visually in the classroom. You have the students of where you can design and documents to basically
3:54
boost your learning in a very quick and easy way. You have free teacher resources where there are
4:00
you know, you could say tutorials, courses, webinars, and more just for the educators. And obviously
4:06
you have different LMS integrations where you can integrate Canva with your learning management
4:10
system, case studies where you can hear how others deliver creative and collaborative learning
4:15
And then obviously you have higher education where you can inspire future generations with the
4:20
power of design. So it's pretty cool stuff, pretty great stuff. And then obviously there's your basic plans and pricings where you have the free plan
4:28
the pro plan, and then the team's plan. Now, the free plan for anyone wanting to design anything on your own or with others
4:35
and it's free forever. Then you obviously have the pro plan, which is for individuals and who basically want unlimited
4:41
access to premium content and design tools. And then obviously there the team plan which is for all teams of all sizes wanting to create together with premium workspace and brand tools So yeah that is basically what we going to be discussing and we going to be discussing
4:55
it in great depth. Now, to create yourself a planner, you're going to go ahead and you're going to write planner
5:01
over here, okay? Now once you write planner, you're going to get all these dimensions
5:05
Just go with the one in inches. And once you go there, here you can see you start getting these templates
5:11
Now, you can go ahead and start with these templates if you want
5:15
but I recommend making one yourself because that's just much easier, more convenient
5:19
and you have full, like, you could say freedom of creating whatever you like
5:25
So I'm gonna go with Create a Blank Planner. Now once I go with Create a Blank Planner
5:30
what I'm gonna do now is I'm gonna start doing the magic
5:34
Now, first of all, we're gonna choose a good brag round. So I'm gonna go with a wood top table view
5:41
I'm gonna go with that. And once I do that, okay, I'm gonna choose any one of these
5:44
you can choose it through iStock photo or a free pick because they just give you good forky images
5:50
Let's go with this. This looks like a good top. Now, you can't either go with this website
5:56
or you can also go with free pick. Unsplash is the best, in my opinion
6:00
because you know, you get totally free picks and it's just a great thing to download from
6:04
because you get forked your related pictures. Now, I'm going to go with a lighter one
6:09
Okay, I'm going to go with this. Let's go with this one. This one looks much better. Now, once it's downloaded, you're going to come here
6:14
and you're going to paste it into your uploads. Once you upload it over here, I'm just going to wait for it to load
6:20
and here we are. Now I'm going to bring it over here. Make sure that it fits in well
6:25
So here we go, and there you are. Now, there's your pretty cool tabletop
6:30
Looks pretty nice. And if you want to, you know, keep that, you know
6:35
aesthetic leaf thing over here, you can't keep it like that. But I recommend just keeping it out
6:40
because for a planner you need a whole tabletop. Now once it's over here, what you're going to do is you're going to go in elements, okay
6:47
and you're going to write rectangle. And once you write rectangle, here you are
6:50
You have a rectangle. Now what you're going to do is I'm going to bring it here not too close to it
6:56
and you're going to expand it into a whole big rectangle. Make sure it's centralized
7:04
You know what? I'm going to make it a bit bigger. And now I'm going to centralize it. There we go
7:09
Now that it's centralized, I'm going to make it a bit white. You know what, let's keep this one a bit of a gray
7:15
I'm going to paste one on top of this. I'm going to make this one white, okay
7:20
Now, once this is white, just make sure to move it a bit to the right
7:25
You know, we want to give it that shadowy look. I'm going to make the back one a bit
7:31
You know, let's go in white. I'm going to go on these colors. Make it a bit darker like that
7:36
Yeah, and I'm going to bring it here now. And wait a second
7:41
There we go. Yeah, it looks pretty. decent now again you're gonna take the background image because you know we want to
7:49
make it look like a professional plan or we don't want to make it look like it you know very you know planner that you didn't work a lot with we don't want to
7:56
make it look like that okay so obviously position this the way I told you
8:01
like that and then you're gonna take this one make sure this one's a bit lighter
8:06
of a shade I'm gonna go here like that okay and then you're gonna bring this
8:12
over here. Now, look at that. It looks like, you know, a proper brief, you could say
8:18
Looks pretty good, pretty decent. Now, obviously, we've made it a bit upside down
8:25
so we're going to rotate this, and we're going to make it look like this. Now, here we are
8:30
Now, as you can see, pretty good stuff. Looks like, you know, pretty aesthetically pleasing, in my opinion
8:35
Now, what you're going to do is you're going to go on elements. You can either write binder, okay
8:40
You can write binder, or you can just write rings, And once you do that, you're gonna bring it here
8:44
You're gonna make this bigger. So once you make it bigger, make sure to bring it here
8:49
And look at that. How good does that look, huh? Just like that
8:54
So that looks pretty amazing, pretty good stuff till now, okay? Now what you're gonna wanna do is obviously
9:01
you're gonna go ahead and give your page a color. Now, you could keep it white, okay
9:06
Now if you're gonna keep it white, we're gonna keep some good, you know, overlaids behind it. And we wanna make it look, you know
9:10
pretty friendly, pretty nice. So what we're going to do is we're going to go in elements and, okay, let's say we're going to keep, let's put flowers
9:18
Okay, let's put flowers in our planner. Because, you know, everyone likes flowers
9:22
Who doesn't like flowers? We're going to do this, okay? To, like you're going to make it, send it backward, go in position, going backward, bring it behind the binder, obviously
9:31
Once you've done that, make sure it's well stretched. And once you do that make sure I going to move it to the right a bit go on the opacity and just do that And look at how good and great that looks Like in my opinion that just looks amazing Okay
9:47
And then you're gonna add, you know, more stuff. Again, send it to the backwards. I'm gonna click it position
9:54
backward. Once I've sent it there, go on the opacity, change the opacity. I'm gonna bring it down
10:01
you know, make it look like that. And then you can add more stuff around it
10:05
Okay, let's say you're gonna add, I'm gonna add another one. Let's go with this one
10:12
Let's go with this one. I'm gonna bring it here. Again, position backward, bring it a bit lower, opacity, and there you go
10:21
I'm gonna make sure the opacity for this is also. It's a bit overpowering. Make sure that none of these are overpowering on your planner
10:28
Because if like any of them are overpowering, then, you know, that just kills the look of it
10:32
So as you can see, now it looks pretty full, looks pretty nice. opinion okay now once you have done this now what you're gonna do is obviously you're
10:40
going to create the whole outlook of your planner so for that you're gonna go here and you're
10:45
going to write tables now obviously in the table section you're going to basically what constitutes
10:49
a planner is like the intro page which it's going to say okay yes this is a digital planner then
10:54
there's the index or the intro you could say after that you're basically going to get your like
11:01
after the intro or index you're going to get your monthly planner your week
11:05
your daily planner, okay? So first of all, you're gonna go with the monthly planner
11:11
Now, before going with the monthly planner, what you're gonna wanna do is you're gonna create
11:15
you know, an intro. So again, go on text. Choose a good font. Choose a nice, you know, very friendly font
11:22
which is gonna match this font's, you know, look. So I'm gonna go with this one
11:27
This one looks pretty decent. Yeah, as we can see, it matches it pretty well
11:31
We're gonna change the color, don't worry, but this is just to change the text
11:35
I'm gonna change it to planner. I'm gonna change this one up here to this one, digital
11:43
So there we have it, digital planner. Now you can, as I said, change the text color
11:46
Don't worry, you're just gonna come here and change it to whatever you like, okay
11:50
You could change it to a page, you could change it to a green if you want to
11:54
In my opinion, yeah, this color looks pretty decent over here, so I'm gonna do that, go in color again
12:00
You can make it blue, you can make it green if you want to. Again, totally dependent on you
12:05
You know what? Yeah, we're just gonna keep it a pink and peach, okay
12:08
Now once you've done that, you have your digital planner. I'll look over here, okay
12:12
That looks pretty good, that looks pretty decent. You can also add effects to it, like you could add shadows
12:17
or you could just remove the shadows if you want. You can make the text more bolder if you want to, there you go
12:24
You increase the blur to give it the glow, or you can decrease it totally upon you
12:30
Bring the transparency out of it. And yeah, you get the point. So just match around with the effects
12:35
until you get what you want. You can also make a neon, by the way. So yeah, mess around as much as you want
12:41
and this is how it's gonna look in the end. Now this is the intro page. Now obviously we wanna go to the index
12:46
Now just go ahead, duplicate the page, okay? Now once you duplicate the page
12:51
just delete the digital planner content. And all right, just do that
12:56
Now before getting into this, just duplicate this as many times as you can, like make 10 to 12 pages, okay
13:02
I'm just gonna make 10 for now. And once you've made 10 pages, We're gonna go, wait, let me centralize this
13:08
I just noticed that this is not centralized. Okay, we're gonna go here
13:13
And yeah, that seems central enough. Now, once we have done that, we're gonna come down here
13:19
and now we're gonna create our index, okay? So for the index, we're gonna write tables
13:24
Here we go. And once you write tables, you're gonna choose the tables from this section
13:28
So I'm gonna choose this one. This one looks pretty, you know, matches our aesthetic
13:33
And I'm gonna bring it over here. Now, to add more sections in your tables, you can just expand it if you want to
13:40
You go on these three dots and, you know, bring more sections into your table if you want to
13:46
Come here, you know, expand it, table spacings. There you go. If you click on this, you're going to get one more column in the table, but yeah, you get what I mean
13:56
So we're going to make our index. So go on your text, okay
14:01
Once you go in your text, choose a decent font. Choose a very, you could say, a font that, you know
14:09
will go well with the style of the planner, basically. So what we're going to do is, I'm gonna go with
14:18
let's go with a decent looking font, if you may. And we gonna go with yeah this one looks pretty good Okay I gonna delete this one Okay and once you done that delete that And here we are This font is called Tiffany birthday Now this is the index obviously
14:36
So, first of all, we're going to add page number, like let's say on the third page, okay
14:42
So page number three, you're going to add it over here. We're going to copy this, paste it, bring it here
14:48
On page three, there's the weekly planner, okay? And we're going to go to the font
14:55
and make sure to make the size small. On page three, you're gonna see the weekly planner
15:02
Or you could like, you know what, daily? We're gonna do, we're gonna do monthly, okay
15:06
On week three, you're gonna have your monthly planner. Make sure the text is small
15:11
And once the text is small, wait, I'm just gonna bring it here
15:15
There you go. Text is small, looks pretty good. And then after monthly, you're gonna basically write
15:21
you know, what is it? It's a planner, obviously. So copy, page
15:25
bring it here and make it centralized and once it's well centralized there we go
15:31
just like that yeah so we're gonna call it right there you go so planner we're gonna
15:39
write planner okay again centralize it there we go I think that's pretty much good
15:44
now what we're gonna do is we're gonna like go over here and we're gonna choose these three
15:51
texts again copy it bring it here Now the monthly planner is obviously going to constitute of only one page
15:58
So you're going to do page four, page four for the weekly planner
16:02
The weekly planner is obviously going to be four pages. So after that, we're going to go to the eighth page
16:08
So fourth page for one week, fifth page, sixth page, seventh page
16:12
Okay, yeah. So we're going to go to the eighth page. Eighth page is going to be for the daily planner
16:17
And the daily planner is obviously going to be, you could say, 30 days because there's 30 days in a month
16:23
So yeah, then there's the page 38 basically. So obviously after this, we're going to come here
16:29
I'm sorry. Wait, I'm going to move that. Now obviously, once like, you know, you're done with all of your settings
16:36
you've written all these things, you're just going to copy this like this, you know, respectively copy that over here, write weekly planner
16:43
copy this over here, write daily planner, copy that over here, right end planner. Now, after that, what you're going to do is you're going to be using other tables
16:50
you know, as I showed you, you're going to go in elements. you're going to write tables. And once you write tables, you can see you have all these tons and tons of tables that you can just use and implement over here
17:00
As you can see, this is like your monthly planner with all the months over here. Okay
17:04
And once you do that, you're going to write the task, schedule, routine, and diet plan
17:09
If there is any, you're going to leave a blank table for someone if they want to add their own essentials
17:14
And yeah, then you're just going to let them add all the details they want to. So that is how you're going to, you know, set up all this for the planner
17:20
And then obviously, then you're going to go. the weekly planner and you're going to add all these tables at the weeks and make seven duplicates of it
17:27
because obviously there are four weeks in a month and then obviously you're going to make your daily planner
17:32
and you're going to duplicate this like about 30 times because obviously there's 30 days in a month
17:37
so once you've done all that obviously we're going to discuss how you're going to add a link to it
17:42
you know hyperlinks so you're just going to click on whatever text you want to add a hyperlink to
17:46
you're going to go on more over here and you're going to click on link once you click on link you're going to
17:51
basically link it to whatever page you want to and there you go that is how you're going to add a
17:55
hyperlink and this is how you're going to create your diggly planner in the easiest most like
17:59
efficient way possible and once you've created it all you're going to do is you're going to click on
18:04
share and once you click on share you're going to go and download once you go and download you're
18:07
going to go in file type go in PDF standard and download it and once it's downloaded as you can
18:11
see it's going to download itself in the most clear and great quality possible and from here
18:17
all you're going to need to do is, you know, just, and as you can see, it looks so aesthetically
18:22
pleasing. Like, it looks great, looks amazing. Anyone will love to have this. And let's see how the
18:27
hyperlink works. Let's say, I want to go on page 8. I'm going to click on that and look at that
18:31
It tick us to page 8. So that is how the hyperlinks work. And this is how you're going to create
18:35
a digital planner using Canva, using hyperlinks in the easiest, most simplest way possible
