Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 5:27 pm

A vignette is a small, decorative illustration used to accentuate text. In Canva, you can add a vignette effect to your images and text with the help of our easy-to-use design tools. Here’s how:

First, open Canva and sign in or create an account. Then, click on the “Create a design” button and select “Blank canvas.”

Next, upload the image you want to use for your vignette by clicking on the “Uploads” tab in the left-hand panel. Once your image is uploaded, drag and drop it onto your blank canvas.

PRO TIP: If you are not careful, adding a vignette effect in Canva can make your images look unprofessional and amateurish. Be sure to experiment with the settings and preview your changes before applying them to your final design.

Now, select the “Text” tool from the left-hand panel and click on the area of your image where you want to add text. A text box will appear; type in your desired text and use the formatting options at the top of the screen to style it as you like.

Once you’re happy with your text, click on the “Effects” tab in the left-hand panel and scroll down to the “Vignettes” section. Select the vignette effect you want to apply to your image and text.

Finally, click on the “Download” button in the top-right corner of the screen to save your design.

Conclusion: Adding a vignette effect in Canva is easy! Just follow the steps outlined above and you’ll be able to create beautiful designs in no time.
