How Do You Make a Seamless Carousel on Canva?

Carousels are a great way to display multiple pieces of content on a single screen. They’re also relatively easy to build in Canva. In this article, we’ll show you how to make a seamless carousel in Canva, step-by-step.

First, open up a new design in Canva. You can use any size or dimensions you like, but we recommend using a square or rectangular canvas for this particular tutorial.

Next, add some images to your design. You can upload your own, or choose from our library of over 1 million stock images. For this carousel, we’ll be adding three images.

Once you have your images in place, it’s time to start building the carousel itself. First, add a frame around each image. You can do this by selecting the “Frame” tool from the left-hand menu and then clicking and dragging around each image.

PRO TIP: This note is to warn you that the “How Do You Make a Seamless Carousel on Canva?” tutorial may not be accurate or up-to-date. We recommend that you use caution and consult other resources before following the advice in this tutorial.

Next, add arrows pointing to the left and right of the carousel. You can find arrows in the “Shapes” section of the left-hand menu. Simply click and drag to place them on either side of your carousel.

Now that your basic carousel is built, it’s time to make it seamless. To do this, select all three frames (hold down Shift and click on each frame) and duplicate them (press Ctrl + D or Cmd + D on a Mac). Then, move the duplicated frames over so they’re directly next to the originals – there should be no gap in between the two sets of frames.

Finally, to make the carousel loop infinitely, select all six frames and duplicate them again (Ctrl + D or Cmd + D). Move these duplicated frames so they’re directly next to the other set – again, making sure there’s no gap in between them.

And that’s it! You’ve now created a seamless carousel in Canva that will loop infinitely.
