3 Steps for Creating Gorgeous Branded Patterns in Canva

STEP 1: Select Your Design Size

Select the size you want to use for your pattern. Do you want a square, horizontal or vertical design? I usually create mine using 2500 x 2500 pixels.

STEP 2: Create Your Pattern

Option 1: Choose one of Canva’s existing patterns

Click to the elements or background tab + scroll down to see your options.

To make this easier, you can type “patterns” into the search box.

Pro Tip: Try to select patterns that are free to save a little money, honey.

Option 2: Choose one of Canva’s lovely existing elements

It allows you to select an element of theirs — like a flower, spiral or even a coffee mug + repeat it to create your own handy dandy pattern. Most of these elements allow you to change the colors to fit your brand making this a true gem in the world of DIY graphic design.

Option 3: Use Your Own Elements

Already have your own icons you’re hoping to use? Use them in a creative way to curate a custom pattern for your visuals.

Pro Tip: Make sure that the elements are seamless on all sides!
