A Step-by-Step Guide to Custom Banner Design in Canva for Australian Businesses

Designing your own custom teardrop banners or feather flags is now easier than ever with Canva – one of the most popular online design tools in Australia. Whether you run a café, car yard, fitness centre, market stall, or community event, creating your own advertising flags can help your brand stand out — and save you money.

This guide will show you how to create a professional-quality design in Canva using our ready-to-go templates, even if you have no design experience.

💡 Note: If Canva restricts file downloads due to Pro elements, just email us your design template link and we’ll download it for you.

✅ Step 1: Select the Right Canva Template for Your Flag

We’ve made it easy by creating four Canva templates tailored to our flag sizes. Click one of the links below to start designing:

✅ Step 2: Add Your Logo to the Flag Design

Click "Uploads" in Canva’s left-hand panel. Drag in your logo or click to upload from your computer.

• Preferred format: Vector (PDF, SVG, AI) for best print clarity
• Accepted formats: PNG and JPG also work well
• If uploading a PDF logo, use “Add page” to bring it in, then drag it to the first template page

✅ Step 3: Resize, Rotate, and Customise

• Use the resize handles and rotation icon to adjust your logo
• For teardrop flags, aim to rotate your logo to fit the flag's 62° angle

• Right-click for alignment tools
• Group/ungroup elements using Shift to move multiple items at once

• Use the colour editor (top menu) to adjust colours to your branding
