How to Upload an Image to a Project on Canva

Canva is a wonderful program for designing almost anything: cards, presentations, YouTube videos and more! If you can think of it, Canva can make it. Although Canva has a large selection of public domain images to use in projects, sometimes the only picture that works is one you took yourself. If that’s the case, don’t fret: this article will explain how to upload any of your own images into a Canva project/design.

Steps

    Click the “uploads” button. You’ll find it near the middle of the elements menu, which is on the very left side of the screen. It looks like a cloud with an arrow in the middle.
