Create a mockup that shows your design on a particular product.

Canva has a new mockup feature that allows you to show your design on a particular product. Called the Canva Mockup, it's great for creating marketing collateral.

To use this option, simply drag and drop your design onto the Canva Mockup template. You can then choose from a variety of backgrounds and products to present your design in an appealing way that will make people want it!

Upload and add your own images to designs.

You can upload your own images from your computer or from an external source.

To add images to designs, click on the “Upload Your Own Image” button, select the file you want to upload using the dialog box and then click on Add Image. Once you have added an image, it will appear on your Canva account
