To understand software like Photoshop, you will have to face a lot of time and trouble, but by using it you will be able to do a great photo edit easily. I make all my photos on Canva only.
I will teach you how to create a featured image in 3 easy steps, through which your WordPress page will look stylish.
Step-1
First of all, go to canva.com and create your account through Google or Facebook.

Now you will be logged into your account and a dashboard will be opened in front of you.

On the dashboard, you will see an option on the top left side of Create a design. And towards the bottom of the dashboard, you will get many recommendations such as if you have to create an Instagram story and you will be showing a lot of social media templates, through which you can easily create posts for your social media account.
Apart from this, you will find many free templates like posters for events, photo editing templates for marketing, and Infographics Presentations Brochure.
I believe that you must have understood well now. So letâs go ahead now.

Just as shown in the photo above, now you click on create a design, here you will create a featured image by custom dimensions (1200 * 627). Can make.
Step-2
Choose Templates
On clicking Create Design, you will have a new tab open in front of you. And in this you will have a lot of templets on the left side, here you can see by scrolling down. And in this, you have also been given the option of filter. In this, you can check by choosing the color according to you and you will get the kind of templates you want.
Here on the left, you have given photos elements and many more tools, you can also edit the image using it. But some image and element pro as you scroll down. The version will mean that you have to pay for it. But I will use a lot of free tools here.

Here I will edit photo with Secret Garden Twitter Post. As you can see in the photo above.
Step-3
Editing Design
Now your real work here is cypress. Donât worry I will tell you everything.
For which topic are you creating a featured image. Choose it and I will make it here for the blog. I will replace the background photo here.

By going to the option of Photos in the sidebar on the left, you will type the blog in the search bar above, showing you in the photo above that I have replaced the photo.
To replace the photo here, keep in mind that the photo you want to replace and drag the photo and leave it, the photo will be automatically replaced.
Try it two or three times and try to replace the photo by going to other photos and templates so that you can understand yourself in the best way.
You can see in the photo above that by clicking on the text, you will get many options on the top side. You can customize your text by using it, such as size, bold, underline, and color-changing options. Here I will write the only blog.
And here you can resize and customize your photo well.

Now looks good for our feature image.
If you want to use your photo. So you get the option of upload below in the left sidebar. You can upload your photo and file there.
Step-4
Download Image
On the dashboard, you get the download option on the top right. You can download this photo in PNG format.

Now everything is complete, now I am fully ready to put this photo in my feature image.
