Yes, you can layer photos in Canva!

To layer photos in Canva, simply click on the “Uploads” tab in the left-hand sidebar. Then, click the “+” icon and select the image you’d like to upload. Once your image is uploaded, you can drag and drop it into place on your design.

PRO TIP: When layering photos in Canva, be aware that the top photo will cover up part of the photo beneath it. This can be useful for creating interesting effects, but make sure that your top photo is positioned correctly before adding more photos to the project.

If you want to add more than one image to your design, simply repeat this process. You can also use the “Grids” tool to help you position your images in a specific way.

Here are some tips for working with layers in Canva:

  • To change the order of your layers, simply click on the layer and drag it up or down in the list. The topmost layer will be visible, while the bottom layer will be hidden.
  • To delete a layer, click on the “x” icon next to the layer in the list.
  • To duplicate a layer, click on the “+” icon next to the layer in the list.

Remember, you can always undo any changes you make by clicking on the “Undo” button (or pressing “Ctrl + Z” on your keyboard).

So there you have it—a quick guide to adding and working with layers in Canva! With this tool, you can easily add multiple images to your designs and position them however you like. So go ahead and experiment with layering to create unique and eye-catching designs.
