So... you've already made your vector, how do you make them as covers?

A. Position

I'll show you a few examples :

1. Simple and clean

Basically, you just put your vector at the bottom part of your cover then add other necessities.

2. Side stance

This one is pretty common, since I see it a lot in Pinterest, where the vector is inserted at the side of the cover.

3. Center of attention

This one is where the vector is placed in the center, covering the text.

4. Play around, get creative!

Making covers doesn't really have any rules, just make whatever you wanna make!

B. Backgrounds

What is a cover without a background? Here are some common ones I usually do.

1. Draw it

You can make your own backgrounds and have fun with it!

Other examples :

2. Patterns or overlays

For this one, you need a base color as a background, then add the pattern/overlay/texture, then lower the opacity or change their blending mode.

*this one is an exception ⬆️

That's it for now, but really, just make how you want it to be, there are no rules in graphic designing. These are just some examples for you who are overwhelmed with making covers.
