In this video, you'll learn how to use Canva's Image Outliner app to add colorful and hollow outlines to your images and text. Whether you're designing graphics for social media, presentations, or any creative project, outlining your images and text can make your designs pop and stand out.

👉 First, I'll show you how to add solid colorful outlines around images with transparent backgrounds. You'll see how to customize the outline color, width, opacity, and blur to get the perfect look. You can add multiple outline layers in different colors for a unique effect.

👉 Next, I'll explain how to create hollow outlines that only show the shape of your image or text without filling it in. This effect is great for minimalist or modern designs.

👉 I'll also cover how to outline text by converting it into an image within Canva. This step is important because the Image Outliner app only works on images, not text objects. You'll see how to remove the background from your text image and then add different outline styles like solid or dotted lines.

This tutorial is perfect for Canva users who want to enhance their designs with creative outlines using the Image Outliner app. It’s easy to follow and requires no advanced graphic design skills.
