The next step is to crop your image so it fits perfectly into your design. To crop an image in Canva, first click on it to select it.

A pop-up window will appear with options to crop your image. You can either manually crop your image by dragging the cropping tool around the desired area, or you can select one of the preset cropping options from the drop-down menu. Once you’re happy with the crop, click “Apply” and then “Done.”
