    Pls how do I get a final transparent sticker with the words or images being white color? The one I did refused to print the white letters,, only black and other colored words showed on the sticker. The white letters disappeared

    How do you make a transparent background if you've added animation features to the text. It's exporting as an mp4 but there transparent background option is gone now.

    can you take a background that has purple with dots on it and make it maybe 50% transparent and have wtitting and images placed on top, would it print out with that transparency? Or print out the original colors? I hope I'm making sense.

    I'm soooooo confused! I'm creating kdp coloring books and need to lay images over each other! This isn't working for me and I know I must be missing something! I'm using black and white png images that I have downloaded. I thought with the png image that I could just layer them. Not so... When I make the background "transparent" then the image behind shines through the image in the front :-( I have watched your video several times... I hope you can help! You are a great teacher! After I hit download do I have to save the image AGAIN on my desktop and then bring it BACK into Canva? Thank you so much!

    I'm a bit confused by all of your comments and its hard to be able to give advice without seeing what you are doing. But yes you would need to download with the transparent background and reupload to canva as a new image and then add to your design for a layer. Hopoethat helps!

  • @CreateWithPennies

    Also you have to make sure when downloading that you are clicking "transparent background" AND saving as a PNG file. You can't do other file types with transparency.

    @@CreateWithPennies Thank you so much for your reply! Sorry for the confusion. The bottom line is that I am trying to create coloring pages with png black and white files. I need to lay down the main image for the coloring page and then lay several images on TOP of the main image. It doesn't work no matter what I do! If I do what you have suggested, the image is then totally transparent and the main image can be seen over the image on top. Does that make more sense? Thanks so much!

    Sorry... I meant to say that the image that I am layering OVER the top of the "main image" of the coloring page... IF it is transparent then the main image can be seen THRU the top image. Please keep in mind that these are black and white line drawings but they are png images that I have purchased. Everything I see and read about Canva is that I should be able to layer png files automatically in CanvaPro??? Thanks again for your patience!

    blah blah blah... endless talk, no real advice. Canva is a piece of crap. Every other online editor allows to quickly create a transparent background before donwloading, just that stupid canva app does not.
