I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying their lives. As we have learned a lot in these six weeks we have learned many things that we did not know about before. Now we are our heads who have worked very hard to complete this course. In terms of this, we have learned a lot, first of all, we want to thank those who introduced us to this course and gave us all the knowledge about it.

Before starting my work I would like to recommend to the Steemit team that this course has been very beneficial for us. Because we have learned a lot here and Canva which is a common thing to use on Steemit. Because we create thumbnails for our posts, we can easily make them through Canva. So I would like to suggest that the Steemit team run this course again next season so that we can become more experts in it.

I would like to have a small celebration on the completion of this course. For this celebration I made this simple banner hope you guys like it. Let's go through the step-by-step procedure of your banner.

Step 01 Selecting Size And Coloring

In the first step, I selected a blank draft containing an Instagram post. So that all my things are visible on it and we can use that banner for social media as well. After selecting it I changed its background color as you can see in the screenshot below. The color I have given is #CCE7F1 I have started my template with this color.

Step 02 Adding Free Image [Pixabay]

The next step is to add an image of mine, this is the image I downloaded for free from Pixabay. And then remove its background from the background remover online website. And then I've uploaded it to my Canva now from the uploads folder I'm selecting it. After selecting it I set its position to the bottom corner on the left side.

Step 03 Adding Celebration Things Like Flags

My next step was I go to the Elements folder and there I searched for Celebration Elements. CELEBRATION ELEMENTS When we search, we have different things open which include balloons flags and people, etc. I had already searched for it so it came up in my recently used. From there I selected the flags that were showing different colors.

Step 04 Copy and Flip The Celebration Flags

Now I have made a copy of the same elements. After making the copy set it to the second corner as before I set the right corner. Now I have to set the second one in the left corner. We have to flip it over to set it in this corner, so I've flipped it. After flipping, the flip is horizontal and then it is placed in its left corner.

Step 05 Adding Texts For Heading

After setting these elements, our next step is to add text. For the text, I have added one main heading and one sub-heading. I have written the main heading FINALLY.

Step 06 Setting Fonts Color And Add Sub Heading

And the subheading I have written Master in Graphic Design. For this finally, I have given the font size to Anton and the color to blue which as you can see in the code below is #3424EB. And our sub-heading is written in simple text and bolded.

Step 07 Adding Graphic Design Elements

Now once again I'm going to go into the Elements folder and search for Graphic Design Elements. From there, different types of graphic designs will open and you can add your favorite among them. As I made an ad, a man is sitting in his chair doing graphic design work on his computer. And what a color vehicle add it is. The purpose of adding these objects is that they represent our graphic design.

Step 08 Add And Set Graphic Design Paint

Again I opened Elements, searched for graphic design, and picked up a painting element. I've placed it in the center of my design and set its transparency to about 10 which is quite light. And his position is to-back. The goal of the to-back is to go last.

Step 09 Add Fancy Text For Teacher

I want to thank my teacher who taught us this graphic design. I am writing his username to thank him. For this, I picked up a fancy text that was meant for the Time Four branch. But in it, I have written thank you in the small heading and my teacher's name in the big heading. And its color which is in the center has been blackened, the rest is the same.

Step 10 Rearrange Sub Heading Fonts

The subtitle that was first added to the text didn't look very pretty. I changed its font to GAGALIN it looks a bit better than before.

Step 11 Finally Add Canvas Logo

Now the final step here is adding the logo on top of which we have learned this graphic design. We have performed all our courses on top of Canva, learned from there, and implemented it there. That's why I am putting his logo here. To get the Canva logo I went back to the Elements folder and there I searched for the Canva Logo. And there were different designs of Canva logos. Next was the original Canva logo. I chose them and placed them in the center of my design.

Final Design

So I have completed my design in which I have added text, added images, and performed it using some elements. The last step was to add our Canva logo after which our final banner was ready. Now we can also use it on social media because it has a size of 1080x1080.

During Steps I write the wrong spelling of your username. I noticed later so now in the final I changed the spelling. Thanks for understanding.

Principles

Color Combination:

I have taken special care of the color combination while making this design. I kept the background color light and all the text images and elements used above it in dark color. By which it becomes a good combination to make it easy to read and look beautiful to the viewer.

Hierarchy:

Using this principle I have added two types of objects in my design one is image and the other is elements. I have kept the transparency full of the image but one of the elements is the painting element which I have reduced the transparency of. His position is set backward so that he is at the back. This is so that they can highlight our main thing. The main heading in front of the text has been kept in bold. And its blue color has been given so that it can be seen clearly.

Element Spacing:

I've taken special care with line spacing to add all the elements to my design. So that all things look beautiful and highlight our main purpose. This is done so that the reader who is going to see it will catch the eye and look beautiful. In this, I have tried my best so that nothing is out of balance and everything is balanced.

Size And Dimension:

I got a blank draft with an Instagram post to create this design. So that all my things are clear on it so that nothing is missed. Because in this template I have placed all the things in such a way that all the things are visible in front.

Balance:

I have tried my best to ensure that nothing is out of balance, everything is balanced and looks beautiful. The color combination has been improved. I have also given the text a nice font so that it looks clear. And the elements have also been set in a better style so that nothing is out of balance. What was needed has worked to reduce transparency. And those who needed to be kept full have been kept full, thus this is the balance.

I would like to invite @nahela, @josepha, @rumaisha, and @kouba01 to join this challenge.
