How To Make A Subscribe Button In 3 Steps
Step 1: Create A Blank Document
The first thing you want to do is head over to Canva and click Custom size.
You can make your subscribe button any size you want but a 150 x 100 px image is a good size to go for.
Then hit the Create new design button.
Step 2: Choose A Design
Next, click on Elements in the left menu and do a search for “subscribe button” to see a whole load of subscribe button designs come up.
Some of them are animated and some are static images, some are fully customisable and others are not so take your time and browse through to find the best one for you.
Once you’ve picked one, play around with the colours and sizing until you’re happy with it.
If you want your subscribe button animated, click Animate and choose from the many animation options.
Step 3: Download
Once you’re done, hit Share in the top-left of the screen and go to Download to save your design.
If your subscribe button is a static image, save it as a PNG file on a transparent background. If it’s animated, save it as an MP4.
Now your subscribe button is ready to be added to your video as you edit your video.
See? it really is as easy as that!
