I am a minor!

I go by basically anything, but most preferred is They/it!

I wanna start making stamps for people to use for free!

Here's some stamps I've made! I want to make dividers as well, but I most likely will stick to stamps and maybe make some blinkies every now and then.

Note: ★

Please remember that it's against Canva's Terms of Service to take raw resources out of Canva and redistribute them. You cannot upload these frames in this file to Tumblr. Plenty of people do it anyway, but you're not allowed to do it and could probably get in trouble. Using the resources to edit an image, such as making stamps or other graphics, is fine and the expected way you're supposed to use them!

Mini Tutorial: ★

When you have animated elements in a file, when you click Share to go and download it, Canva defaults you to a video file.

You can change it to image files in the dropdown:

If you're using an animated frame and want it as a GIF stamp, select GIF. If you have a Canva Pro/Business free trial, you'll also be able to check "Transparent Background." This will make a notice appear that tells you that the image may not look as expected, but this can be safely ignored. I think it's just Canva covering themselves if the GIF fails to export properly, but I've personally never had any issues with it.

If you're using a non animated frame, select PNG.

You can also use the animated frames as static stamps, too!

Select the page (Page 10 here is an animated one, so I'll use that) and then click Share,

And select your current page. Additionally, if you're downloading a big batch of stamps, it'll be useful to click Save download settings to prevent Canva from auto-selecting a video file format.

Here's an example of what Page 10 looks like, static and animated.

Other Tips:

I usually put this dark color as the background layer of all my files to make it easier to see what I'm doing. However, Canva does not allow exporting transparent images without Pro, which is stupid and bullshit. One easy way to get around this is to change the background color to a color that doesn't appear in your stamp image, export it, and then go to Online-Image-Editor (or any image editor but I like using this one).

In OIE, click the Advanced tab at the top, then click Transparency. The dropdown "Filltype" has the options "Floodfill at selected color" (which stops when it hits a line) and "Replace selected color" (which tries to remove all of that color in the entire image). Turning up the Fuzz Factor makes it remove the color more intensely. I usually start with the Fuzz Factor up as high as it goes, and then if that accidentally removes too much I undo the edit and try it again with the next lowest Fuzz Factor setting.

...Or, if you don't want to do all this OIE shit, there's nothing wrong with just making the stamp's background pure white. To change the background color, select that layer, and then click the dot of color that appears to open the color menu.

And lastly: Some of these frames do not fill up the 99x56 space that a usual stamp does, but I included them anyway.

It's up to you if you want to not use these, use them and crop the image (in OIE or something else), or to leave them as this size so it fits nicely with other stamps.

Aaaaaand that's it! Tagging @resource-reblogging in case they want to reblog.
