✅ Want your text to have both a shadow AND an outline? We’ll show you how in just under a minute.
Canva allows you to apply multiple text effects by duplicating the text and applying different effects to each duplicate, then layering them. This technique enables creating effects like outlines, shadows, and even 3D looks by strategically positioning the duplicated text layers.
Here's a step-by-step breakdown:
1. Start with your text: Select the text you want to modify.
2. Duplicate: Copy and paste the text element to create a second identical layer.
3. Apply effects: Go to the "Effects" panel and choose an effect for each text layer. You can use different effects on each duplicate, or the same effect with different settings.
4. Layer and Position: Carefully position the text layers on top of each other to achieve the desired look. You can adjust the order of layers using the "Position" tool if needed.
5. Adjust and refine: Fine-tune the effect settings (color, intensity, etc.) and the positioning of the layers to perfect your design.
By combining different effects and carefully layering the text elements, you can create visually appealing text effects not directly available in a single "Effects" setting in Canva.
🔥 Plus, stick around to the end for a quick plug for our ConvertMarkz app, which lets you convert Canva designs directly into Adobe InDesign — perfect for pro designers who want more control over their layout.
