Hello, fellow design enthusiasts! Today, I’m thrilled to share a video that I found incredibly useful, particularly for those of you who use Canva regularly. As an expert in this niche, I thought it was a great opportunity to shed some light on a powerful feature of Canva that often remains under-utilized – Text to Image. This feature is essentially Canva’s version of AI-driven image generation, an exciting and often underrated tool in the Canva toolkit.

Key Takeaways:
- Canva’s Text to Image uses the Stable Diffusion technology by Stability AI, allowing users to generate unique images based on textual prompts.
- This feature works best with simple, conversational prompts in English, and it’s available to all users with a limit of 100 images per day.
- Understanding the copyright implications of AI-generated images before using them for commercial purposes is crucial.
Step-by-Step Process:
- Open Canva and locate the Apps tab on the object panel.
- Click on Text to Image, type in a description, and choose a style (Photography, Digital Art, or Fine Art).

- Generate the image and choose the best from the given options.

Ronny quotes, “Talk to it (Text to Image) as you would to a friend, and you’ll get better results. Overly complicated prompts don’t always generate the best images.”
