So here’s 👇👇👇 the @CanvaEdu tip of the week. Thinking outside the box (frame)😂 with your designs. Duplicate image, remove background & layer. Take those graphic novels to the next level. Potential to use this effect in other areas across #edu #business @Usingtechbetter @canva

Wise words from my friend, Kelly.

One of the coolest and nicest things a person can do for another is talk positively about them behind their back. Sending someone encouragement can MAKE their day or week. Giving an unsolicited referral for someone ‘trying to make it’ can literally change their lives. #leadeveryday #buildingbetterhumans #goodhumanclub #leadership
