Creating social media graphics for your women’s ministry Facebook page, Facebook group, or Instagram account isn’t as difficult as it may seem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully there are many free options for creating great-looking social media graphics.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

No longer do you need a graphic design degree to create beautiful scripture graphics or memes. Several social media creation tools offer templates that simplify the process.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting started, though, can seem a bit overwhelming so I’ve compiled the resource lists and tips below to smooth the process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Free (or inexpensive) Social Media Creation Tools<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Spend a little time exploring your options and then pick the one that is the easiest to use. There’s no need to learn all of these, you just need one!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Canva<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Wordswag<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Be Funky<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Crello<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Snappa<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Stencil<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Note: Each one has a bit of a learning curve. I’ve found YouTube has plenty of videos that will walk you through the process step-by-step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    As you research options, consider:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Is it free<\/strong>, or are there additional costs<\/strong>? Sometimes it’s worth paying the annual fee to unlock other features.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Do they offer templates<\/strong>, and if so, what kind?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Do they offer cloud storage<\/strong> for your creations?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Do you want to be able to design on the go? Is there an app<\/strong> for that?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. What format<\/strong> do you need for your creation? Hint: PNG results in a cleaner font than saving as a JPG.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Can you upload and use your own fonts?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      I use Canva,<\/a> but it is a membership site. I like that I can use the fonts I’ve downloaded and store and edit my creations on their platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
