Step-by-Step Canva Tutorial: Designing a Professional Business Book Cover

[fixing-canva-book-covers]

Fixing Canva cover art: Practice Makes Perfect by Sarah Adams.

This is one of the first ones I fixed. Design-wise, I actually really love this cover! I just wish it didn’t fall down so spectacularly on the dozen or so weird anatomical issues on display. I reshaped their faces, provided a subtle contrasting outline around their profiles to make them pop a little more (they’re the main characters after all!) and gave this poor girl back her ass. And the back of her head. And her shoulder. I can see what they were going for with the guy, but again, this poor guy is just totally lacking shoulders and like, human joints. So I de-plasticened him a little bit. And I gave him more human proportions for his face and head, and bulked up that lacklustre looking hair.

It’s subtle, but I think the changes make all the difference!

— canva template (penguin classic book covers)

I saw this video on the ⏰ app about using this website to generate fic covers that look like the penguin classic covers. (Please check it out! It is very easy to use and very fun to make covers with - I would absolutely recommend it!)

But I also love customization, so I put together free templates in Canva, giving you the ability to change font colors, styles, etc. Wanted to share it in case anyone wanted to try it - it was fun to imagine my fics having fancy book covers!

Templates & info below:

template one

template two

When opening the templates, there’s options to change the author, fic title (& subtitle on #1), design colors, and the photo. If you choose a photo first, then when you’re changing the details, it will offer you color options picked from the photo (which is so helpful!) And if you have any questions, please let me know! 💕

I literally cannot stand this new wave of “booktok and bookstagram” bc it’s literally just filled with people with no critical thinking skills who make fun of every single aspect of books and fandoms bc it gets them more clout. go to hell jail.

I'm getting pretty good at WordPress design and Photoshop at work for someone who is ostensibly a copywriter

[wrongfulruffian]

The fic reads like a crime romance novel so I'm trying to match those vibes.
