Canva social media post — describe your post, get a design brief to build it in Canva

Paste into ChatGPT or Claude to get a Canva-ready design brief:

'You are a social media designer. I need to create a [POST TYPE: Instagram feed post / story / Facebook post / LinkedIn post / Pinterest pin] for my business. Give me a detailed design brief I can follow step-by-step in Canva.

My business: [WHAT YOU DO]
The purpose of this post: [e.g. announce a sale / share a tip / promote a service / show behind-the-scenes / share a testimonial]
The main message in one sentence: [WHAT I WANT PEOPLE TO FEEL OR KNOW]
My brand colors (if known): [YOUR COLORS or "I don't have brand colors yet — suggest some"]
Tone: [e.g. friendly / professional / playful / minimal]

Give me:

1. CANVA SETUP:
   - Template type and canvas size to use in Canva
   - Background color: exact hex code
   - Whether to use a photo, illustration, or graphic background — and what to search for in Canva's free library

2. LAYOUT DESCRIPTION:
   Step-by-step what goes where:
   - What text goes at the top / middle / bottom
   - Where to place an image or graphic element
   - How much white space to leave and where
   - Any shapes, dividers, or frames to use (and which Canva element to search)

3. TYPOGRAPHY:
   - Headline font suggestion (from Canva's free fonts — name the font)
   - Body/supporting text font
   - Font sizes for each text element
   - Text color (exact hex)

4. THE COPY (ready to paste into Canva):
   - Headline (under 8 words)
   - Supporting line (1-2 sentences)
   - CTA or hashtag suggestion

5. QUICK CANVA TIPS for this specific design:
   - Any Canva-specific tricks that will make this look more professional
   - The one thing that will make it look amateur if I get it wrong'

Tip: once ChatGPT gives you the brief, open Canva and follow it step by step — it takes about 10 minutes; if you want a whole week of posts, say 'now create briefs for 5 more posts in the same style for this week' and you'll have a cohesive content week ready to build.
