Step by Step:
> Open Canva on your desktop. > I used a pre existing template, however you can try and recreate the search bar yourself or find one under "elements". > Open the template (link to template I used click here). > Choose a background image. Be creative! Can be a colour, pattern or image. DESIGN TIP: make sure it relates to the word you are using or to your brand. > Type in the first letter of your word in the search bar and also type this | symbol on your keyboard. > Copy the search bar (right click and copy). > Create a new page. > Paste the search bar (right click and paste). > Type in the next letter of the word in front of the | symbol. > Repeat the above 3 steps until all the letters of your word are finished. (only adding one letter each time). > Go to download in the top right hand corner and choose animation (this is where you need a pro account) and select simple and fast make sure Movie is selected. > Click download. YOUR DONE! Video Tutorial:Prefer to watch a video? Then you can watch this quick and easy tutorial I recorded. If you use this Canva technique, please tag me so I can see your creation.
