Design Like a Pro Tip #2: Align Elements

To make all of your designs feel super refined, make sure you line of the edges within each group of elements. I don’t typically follow a super strict grid, but any photos or text boxes in a section that are close to lining up, should.

Most design editing platforms, like Canva or Showit, will give you guidelines so you can easily tell when they’re lined up! Here are some client website examples of alignment:
