How to make a realistic open book mockup in Canva

In this Canva tutorial, I’ll show you how to create a realistic open book mockup — perfect for showcasing your designs, artwork, or eBook pages in a lifelike way. 📖✨

I start by generating an AI image of an open book, using a reference photo as a guide to get accurate perspective and lighting. Then, I bring that image into Canva and use the Custom Mockup App to transform it into a double-page spread.

The result? A realistic mockup where one image flows naturally across both pages — and the centre fold crease is perfectly preserved, making it look like a true open book. I also show how to create single-page mockups, link two of them together, and add a crease shadow to make two different page designs look like they belong to the same open book.
