Using a template is often the quickest and easiest way to create quick graphics in Canva, but sometimes, it’s necessary to create one from scratch, especially if we can’t find a template that matches what we are looking for. Starting a blank template is very similar to using a pre-made template. Click on the Create a design tab and search for the size you require. A blank template of the selected size will open up for you. Alternatively, you can click on the Custom size tab and you are given the following size options:

• px (pixels)
• in (inches)
• mm (millimeters)
• cm (centimeters)

These are useful if you are creating a banner, poster, book, or something else that has a specific size you need to work to.
