Image description

Line art of a hand holding a brush and drawing a heart. At the centre, the text reads "At the heart of democracy." A pink banner underneath includes "IDAHOBIT – A Worldwide Celebration of Sexual and Gender Diversities – may17.org" and the IDAHOBIT logomark, a pink triangle with an exclamation mark.

Canva

  • Add your logo or logos.
  • Drag and drop a photo inside the heart (optional).
  • Export for social media or print.

Tips for a clearer design

Keep titles short and impactful. If you need to share more information, include it in the caption of your post.

Include your time zone for online events, so participants know exactly when to join.

Use logos with clear spacing. Upload logos with transparent backgrounds if possible, and leave space around each one to avoid visual clutter.

Do not overcrowd the design. Spacing improves readability and accessibility.
