Spark joy, creativity, and connection—one quote at a time.
The sunshine season is here, and there’s no better time to refresh your content with bright, inspiring quote graphics that speak to the soul. ☀️
Whether you're creating for Instagram, Pinterest, or your blog, Canva makes it easy to design beautiful summer quotes that your audience will save, share, and swoon over.
Here are 10 summer quote ideas, plus tips on how to style them into standout Canva graphics—perfect for digital creators, small shops, and creatives who want to warm up their feed and inspire their audience.
🌼 1. “Live in the sunshine, swim in the sea, drink the wild air.”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson
Design tip: Use a beachy background photo with soft white script text. Add a transparent overlay for extra readability.
🍓 2. “Some of the best memories are made in flip flops.”
— Kellie Elmore
Design tip: Try a playful font and add summer-themed icons like sunglasses, sandals, or popsicles.
🌞 3. “Sunshine is the best accessory.”
Design tip: Use a bright yellow background and bold serif font. Pair with simple hand-drawn sun doodles from Canva’s Elements.
🌊 4. “Happiness comes in waves.”
Design tip: Go for a calm, ocean-toned palette (blues, teals) and wavy text using the “Curve” tool. Add a splash or wave element behind the quote.
🍉 5. “Savor the season.”
Design tip: Minimalist layout with lots of white space and a watercolor fruit background (think: watermelon or citrus slices).
🌴 6. “Let your dreams set sail.”
Design tip: Use a sailboat silhouette or a nautical theme. Try pairing a cursive font for “dreams” with a classic sans serif for balance.
🌻 7. “Every summer has a story.”
Design tip: Create a scrapbook-style post with photo frames, stickers, and textured backgrounds—like your own digital journaling page!
🌈 8. “Stay close to people who feel like sunshine.”
Design tip: Warm-toned gradient background with gold or orange text. Use soft shadows or glow effects for extra warmth.
🧡 9. “Create your own sunshine.”
Design tip: Make this a bold, bright post with a graphic sunburst, geometric shapes, and fun color blocking. Great for Reels covers or carousels!
✨ 10. “The tans will fade, but the memories will last forever.”
Design tip: Frame the quote on a Polaroid-style background with a summery photo tucked behind. Great for storytelling posts or printable cards.
