Step 1: Create a FREE Canva account or login into Canva if you are an existing user.
Step 2: Open a new design template. In this tutorial I use a 500 x 500 px blank template.
Step 3: Select two thin circles to pull onto your blank canvas. Change both the circles to colors of your choice!
Step 4: Add a text box and type in the words you wish to have. Adjust the desired font, color, text spacing, etc.
Step 5: Click the EFFECTS button on the top navigation bar. Click it and you will see a screen open on the left where you will see CURVE. Click CURVE and drag your text box where you would like to position it on your design.
Step 6: Duplicate the text box and drag it to where you would like to position it on your design. Again click EFFECTS, and CURVE. Adjust the settings as desired.
Step 7: Add text or a graphic in the middle of your logo design. Adjust the colors, fonts, text spacing as desired.
Step 8: Add a background image if desired. Adjust it’s positioning and adjust the transparency to achieve the desired effect.
Step 9: Download your new logo as a PNG, JPG, PDF, etc. If you have a Canva Pro account, you can download the logo with a transparent background! Want to try it out, click here for a FREE Canva Pro trial account!
