How Do I Know This Will Work?

Honestly? You don’t. But I do.

I’m Jennifer, the founder of JenniferMaker.com, a DIY & craft blog that’s helped over 35 million creatives in the past eight years. I’ve been using Canva since 2016, back when there were hardly any tutorials or resources. With patience—and my decades of graphic design experience—I figured it all out on my own.

But here’s the thing... even after I learned how to do something—like making a seamless pattern or setting up a brand kit—I’d forget the steps the next time I needed to do it. Then I’d have to start from scratch. So frustrating!

So, I started taking notes. At first, I kept them on my computer, but they quickly became long, cluttered, and hard to search through. Then I had a lightbulb moment! I simplified everything, added screenshots, and printed out my notes to keep right next to my computer for quick reference.

Jennifer with Laptop

That was the game-changer. Instead of wasting time relearning the same things, I had a simple, step-by-step guide I could rely on.

Now, I know Canva inside and out—and I can teach you, too. That’s exactly why my team and I created this Playbook for you. No overwhelm. No guessing. Just follow each step as I’ve laid it out, and you’ll be amazed at what you can do.

If you trust me, I know this will work.

Over 500,000 creatives have purchased my design playbooks—mostly through word of mouth—because they fill a gap. This is the missing manual for Canva.

And if it doesn’t work for you? No worries—contact me within 30 days of purchase and I’ll refund your money, no questions asked.

You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Ready to get started?

What If I'm Brand New to Canva?

You are in the right place. My Canva Coach Playbook contains cheat sheets for the most basic tasks, from starting a new project to downloading your design. This is the perfect companion for a new Canva user, as you can print it out and reference each time you use it.

You can do this!

What If I Already Know Canva Well?

The Playbook will still help you! I don't know about you, but I still have to look up how to do lesser-used functions like make templates, create videos, and use mockups. And when I move from my desktop to my iPad? All bets are off and I seem to forget how to do everything because sometimes it's in different places and with different names. These cheat sheets eliminate all the guesswork and you get things done FAST.

What If I Use a Mac? Or Android? Or my iPad? 

Great news! ALL of those are covered in this Playbook. I document how to do everything on all the various versions of Cricut Design Space -- Mac, Windows, iOS (iPad), and Android. If you prefer to use an iPhone for Canva, you can follow along with the iPad directions, too! So when you need to switch to your mobile device, or back to your desktop, you'll always know what to do.

Ok, So How Much Is It? 

The 150-page, full-color Playbook is easily worth $40 or more, but for a limited time I'm offering it at just $19.

And -- great news -- the Playbook stays up-to-date! If there is a Canva update, or a new feature comes out, you can re-download the updated Playbook to get all the new stuff. That's right — future updates to the Playbook are free of charge to purchasers!

ALSO, if you have an idea for new pages, let me know -- if I get enough requests, I'll add them and you get access to the updated file.

The Canva Coach Playbook will save you TONS of time AND you'll be able to make even more amazing things than before.

It's like having a Canva expert in your pocket!

"This is the perfect resource for anyone wanting to get started using Canva. The book provides step by step instructions for each menu item and provides examples of each. It also provides tips and caution alerts when using some of the functions. No matter what device you use to download Canva, this book has the information for all of them. This is a typical, completely thorough and informative book by Jennifer." -- Donna Clemens (pre-publication peer reviewer)

The video you see above is a Canva Mockup, and it came together in seconds! Mockups are a very useful Canva feature for anyone who wants to see what their design might look like on something else, such as a T-shirt, mug, or bag. In this video, we're seeing what a copy of the Canva Coach Playbook would look like if someone printed it and had it coil bound (note that it does not come that way).

Even though I have been using Canva for over six years, this book provided me with some tips & tricks that I had forgotten about and I have made notes to start using them again. Thanks so much for putting this together and making it easy to follow and use even for the newbies."
