Plant Based Bride | Reading Journal Prep 101: Book Covers, Stats, & Art in Canva! 📚 @PlantBasedBride | Uploaded April 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Thank you to Harry's for sponsoring this video! Make sure you check out the Shave and Suds bundle through this link: harrys.com/plantbasedbride and pick something up next time you’re at your favourite store. Let me know what you get!
Today I'm *finally* sharing a detailed tutorial of how I use Canva to do all of the prep work for my reading journal! From the absolute basics of how to use Canva, to how I source the images I use, to sizing tips (the exact size I make my book covers, for example!), and how I make the charts I use to show my reading stats. I talk through the kinds of things I search to find images on Google and Pinterest, how I keep files organized, and how I use Canva's tools as a template to save time! I hope this video is helpful and goes into enough detail for everyone who has asked me questions about how I create the pages I print to use in my reading journal set ups. Because this is a longer one there are chapters so you can skip around to what's relevant to you! If I missed anything please leave a comment down below so I can clarify ❤️

FAQs
What does your channel name mean? I picked "Plant Based Bride" for my blog when I started it back in 2015 as I was starting the process of planning my vegan wedding and wanted to document it. I have been vegan for 10+ years and married since 2016!

Where are you from? I'm a Canadian from Toronto, Ontario, now living in the Canadian Prairies.
Are you a natural redhead? No, I'm naturally a brunette. I dye my hair using Herbatint 8R.
Are your nails natural? Nope, they're press ons and I do them myself (see how in this tik tok: tiktok.com/@plantbasedbride/video/6915488557721259270?lang=en&is_copy_url=1&is_from_webapp=v1 )
