Make one design

A week of content at once

Using Canva, create a week of Instagram posts for [brand] about [theme]. Seven designs in my brand style: colors [hex], fonts [fonts]. Vary the layouts so they don't look identical. Build them all in Canva and send me the links.

Idea into a carousel

Using Canva, turn this idea into a 7-slide Instagram carousel: [your idea]. Use my brand colors [hex] and fonts [fonts]. Strong hook on slide one, clear CTA on the last slide. Build it in Canva so I can edit it.
