Okay, let’s get started.
I’m logged in to my Canva account, created my design, and now I’m ready to add the Shadow Effect.
First, select the image you’d like to add the Shadow Effect.
Then click on Edit Image.
This will open the Edit Image panel on the left side.
Scroll down to Shadows.
Click on See All for more options.
Tada! So many options. Choose the Shadow Effect you’d like.
I chose Curved for this tutorial.
Click on the three adjustment lines (displayed on the thumbnail above) to further customize the shadow effect.
You’ll see the options: Curve, Offset, Transparency, Blur, and Colour.
Then click on Apply.
Tada!
The Shadow Effect will be applied to your Image.
And we’re done. Easy peasy!
