Christmas Designs for social media posts
Canva is a great site (and app) which is full of templates for social media posts. You could adapt any of these Chistmas templates with your own image and text. For example, if you don’t like the image in one of their designs, find an excellent free image on Pixabay and then replace the Canva image with your image.
