Blank Card Portrait

Working with images...

To add photos click on the Photos tab of the toolbox (on the right hand side). There are two ways to upload a photo, either by clicking camera icon (desktop upload) or Instgram.

Photos will appear in the gallery area, click or drag these across to the canvas. Each photo on the canvas has a toolbar, which will appear when the photo is selected.

Use the blue frame around the image to resize (shrink and stretch) and reposition by dragging.

See below for toolbar details:

		Delete (undo icon at the top)
		Duplicate the photo
		Rotate 90° left
		Rotate 90° right
		Set position (front/back)
		Add filters (b/w, kodachrome)
		Attached a photo frame
		Cropping a photo
		Stretch photo to full canvas

Adding photo frames...

Click the photo on the canvas, so the toolbar appears. Select the option and a list of frames will appear.

Select the frame you like and the photo will automatically be cut to fit.

To move the photo, click the crop icon and drag into position. Once done, click the crop icon again to save.

Adding a background...

Try adding some backgrounds from our list of samples. Click the Scenes tab on the right hand side and select the one you like.

Some the background scenes are transparent, which means you can apply a background colour. Click the bucket icon at the top of the canvas and try changing the colour.

Or you can choose to upload your photos as background images (desktop files only).

Click the Scenes tab and then select the background upload button.

Adding Emojis & Art...

Click the Emoji tab and either drag across to the canvas or click the ones you like. Resize and rotate using the toolbar controls.

Click the Art tab, scroll down and add the fireworks object. Now change the background colour to black. Add a photo then try placing more objects or a background scene.

You can upload you own image objects via the Photos tab.

Setting object positions...

When adding objects like Photos, Emojis, Art to the canvas, you may need to adjust the overlapping - the order that they are behind or in front of each other.

On each toolbar there is an icon for setting the position - when you click this a drop down of options will appear.

By selecting an option the object will move to that position, either forwards, backwards, to the front or to the back.

Not all of the buttons will be available. For example if the object is already at the back, the back buttons (move/send) will be disabled.

Stretch photo to canvas...

In some cases you may prefer that your photo takes up the full size of the canvas. There are two ways to do this.

Upload your image using the Photos tab. Click the photo and select the stretch icon - you can still resize and position the photo.

Or you can choose to upload your photos as background images (desktop files only).

Click the Scenes tab and then select the background upload button. These images cannot be re-sized.

Adding filters to photos...

To add a colour filter to your photo, click the photo on the canvas, so the toolbar appears. Then Select the filter icon and a list of options will appear.

Select the type of filter you would like to apply to the photo - black & white, vintage, inverse, kodachrome etc.

The image will be immediately updated.

To revert back to the original either click the under button at the top of the canvas, or you go back to the filters menu and select original.

Cropping a photo...

Re-size the image to the extent you at looking for (don't worry if the image skews). Then click on the crop icon from the toolbar, this will put the image into a crop mode.

Use the zoom-in button - until the part of the image you want is in the highlighted box. Once done, click the crop icon again to save.
