Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 6:57 pm

There are many ways to create a blur effect in Canva. One way is to use the Gaussian Blur filter. To do this, simply select the layer you want to blur in the Layers panel, then click the Filter icon and select Gaussian Blur from the drop-down menu.

Another way to create a blur effect is to use a blur mask. To do this, first create a new layer and draw a black and white mask on it.

PRO TIP: Canva is a great tool for creating designs, but it’s important to be aware of the potential risks associated with using it. One such risk is the possibility of creating a blur effect that can make your design look unprofessional. To avoid this, be sure to use the highest quality images possible and avoid using filters or other effects that can cause your image to blur.

Then, select the layer you want to blur and click the Mask icon. Next, click the layer with the mask and drag it onto the layer you want to blur. Finally, change the opacity of the mask layer until you’re happy with the amount of blur.

There are many other ways to create a blur effect in Canva, so experiment until you find one that works best for your project!
