How to Access and use the Canva templates

Access the Canva Templates

When downloading your theme files from Etsy, included in the download is a PDF file that is named “GET-STARTED-xyz” (where xyz is the name of the theme your purchased).

Open this PDF file and you’ll see instructions on how to access your branding templates as well as links to each one that is included for your theme.

When you click one of the links in the PDF it will take you to that Canva template. It will look something like this image. Click the button to “Use Template”.

You’ll need to make sure to have a Canva account (free version is just fine!)
