Click on the download link below to get your free PNG template file. If you’re not sure how to use the file, you can watch this quick video on how to use the template in the free version of the Canva app. If you’re not experienced with using Canva on your phone, I recommend the browser version on a desktop.
To download the template to a computer, click the download button, the image may open in a new tab. Right click the image and choose “save image as”.
If using a phone, click the download button. The image should show up on your screen. Press on the image and a box will open. Select download image. The file type will be a PNG file. (A screenshot of the image will not work as a template.)
