Canva offers you a wide array of covers some for free and others at a cost. I being broke and new to the site opted to try the free covers that they had and try to design my own with the templates and art that they supply. It's pretty easy and if I can do it so can you. The site is pretty easy to navigate and searching for what you want is fairly smooth.
First I made a new cover for the book that started it all, The Adventures of Marco and Carla: The Dark Castle. As you may or may not know your cover has to be a specific size if you are going to upload it for that ebook you might have been working on. I came back to the site that I published a lot of my work on being Smashword to see that the cover of the book was tagged saying that it was too small so I took to finding a site that could help me create my new covers and not need money to do so. So as you can see the cover for The Dark Castle came out looking great, so I decided to do another.
The second cover was for a short story entitled Burdened. The cover before didn't give feel I wanted it to and I came across this image on Canva and thought that it looked like what I was aiming for. So using the tool in Canva I placed the name of the story on there. Pretty simple right?
