Canva (Photo Tool)

I used Canva to create a few photo collages today. ðŸ“· It’s easy to create a free account and have access to lots of tools. Not only photo collages can be made in Canva, but also posters, flyers, postcards and others. 

The best thing is that they provide a variety of templates for free! 💰 Students can definitely find this webpage interesting because it can be used for many different activities throughout the year; for example, to create their own posters, design flyers for activities, or display important information in the classroom. 

I found this app very user friendly, even though it differs from the ones I used previously. I definitely recommend it! 

Example of how to design a photo collage.

Some of my work:
Photo collage #1: Shapes

Photo collage #2: Pictures from the perspective of a snake (Top and bottom left) 
Picture from the perspective of a bird (Bottom right)

Photo collage #3: Angles

My Trip to Peru

I love getting souvenirs from all the places I visit. I bought this souvenir this summer in Peru when I travelled to visit my family. It is important to me because it reminds me of the fun road trip we went on together (my parents, my sister, my husband and me). It was pretty interesting to spend more than 20 hours on the same van, sometimes tired and bored, sometimes singing like crazy to pass the time. We got to visit a famous city and see a few volcanoes....and also eat lots of delicious food!  It was a great experience and that is why this souvenir means a lot to me. ðŸ’—
