How Do You Put a White Outline on a Picture in Canva?

Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 5:49 pm

There are a few ways to put a white outline on a picture in Canva. The first way is to use the ‘Stroke’ tool.

To do this, simply select the ‘Stroke’ tool from the left-hand side menu and then click on the image. This will bring up a window where you can select the thickness, color, and opacity of the stroke. Simply choose white for the color and then adjust the other settings to your liking.

Another way to create a white outline is to use the ‘Image Effects’ tool. To do this, select the image and then click on the ‘Image Effects’ icon (it looks like a sun).

PRO TIP: If you are not careful, you can easily end up with a white halo around your image when using Canva. This can be frustrating and difficult to fix. To avoid this, be sure to use the eraser tool to clean up any white pixels that may be left behind after using the outline feature.

This will bring up a menu of different effects that can be applied to the image. Scroll down until you find the ‘Stroke’ option and then select it. Again, you will be able to adjust the thickness, color, and opacity of the stroke.

Finally, you can also create a white outline by adding a text box over the image. To do this, select the image and then click on the ‘Text’ icon (it looks like a T). This will bring up a window where you can enter your text.

Simply type in your desired text and then format it however you like. You can also change the color of the text box by clicking on the ‘Fill’ icon (it looks like a paintbrush). Again, simply choose white for the color.

All of these methods should help you put a white outline on a picture in Canva. Experiment with each one to see which one works best for you and your project.
