Hey, Reader, Last week I shared 4 eye-catching design trends I pulled straight outta my growing inspo bank that I'm LOVING lately... ❤️Overlays Missed that email? Check it out here so you don't miss out on any inspo. Today we're sliding into part 2 of my 3-part series featuring some of my favorite eye-catching design trends that are not only fun to look at—but super easy to recreate in Canva. 🙌 But first—a quick truth bomb 💣 While trends keep your designs fresh and appealing, attract and engage your audience, and elevate your brand perception... They’re like sprinkles!🎂Fun to play with, not the main ingredient. Your brand should be built on your brand foundations, audience, and consistency—not what’s currently popular. Use these trends for inspiration, to refresh your social posts, spice up a promo graphic, or test out a new vibe without committing long-term... Unless you fall head over heels in love with them! Alright, let’s dive in 👇 🌫️ Trend #5: Italic CombinationsThis look is subtle but powerful... And super easy to pull off. Use a classic serif font and mix in the italic version to add sophistication and emphasis without overdoing it. (Pro design move. Major vibes.)👇 🎨 Trend #6: Arched Photo FramesArched frames are everywhere right now—and for good reason. They soften your layout, break up all the boxy content, and add a touch of elegance to even the simplest design. It’s giving "modern brand with taste." 📝 Trend #7: Notes App Look (+ how to do it)Yep, straight outta your iPhone! This trend is simple, super relatable, and great for sharing thoughts, reminders, or real talk with your audience in a way that feels human. My fave thing about this trend is that they are super quick to create! Note your ideas when they come and use your notes for content later. 🧾 Trend #8: Neon Pastel AccentsThis trend is everywhere - and I'm loving it cause you get the best of both worlds! Neon = bold and attention-grabbing, Pastels = soft and inviting. This little color trick adds energy and vibrancy to your graphics without overwhelming the design.👇 ❤️🔥HOT TIP: Don't go overboard with this one! A little neon pastel goes a lonnnng way. Here are some fun ideas for you to try: That’s your design inspo dose for the week, Reader!What do you think so far? Any of these already calling your name?
