How To Create Half Face Text Effect in Canva

Creating a half-face text effect is really easy to do in Canva. It just takes a few minutes to do, and it looks really cool and creative. Canva has some amazing hidden features to make that type of effect possible, and also, if you have a free version of Canva, you can create that type of image as well. Let’s dive into a step-by-step guide and learn how to create that effect in Canva.

• Go to your design page and add your subject image.
• Now go to [ Elements > Shapes ] and add a square.
• Now fill this square with half of the subject image. (Note: See the image below for a better understanding.)
• Now add a heading text and write your text.
• Customize your text and place all the text of the subject so that the second half of the subject image is covered with all the text.
• Make sure your square and all text colors are black.
• Here, your step one is complete.

• Now duplicate the square and place it on the other half of the area, and make sure to change this square’s color to white.
• Now go to [ Position > Layers ] and drag this second square below all that text.
• Now you have an image where half of that image is covered with a black background, and the other half is a white background, and all text is on the white background area, and your main subject image is hidden.
• If your image looks like that, then download that image.
• Here, your second step is complete.

• Remove all the text and the white and black background of this design.
• Now upload your downloaded image and add it to your design.
• Now go to the Apps and search “Blend Image” and open that app (for recognition, I added that screenshot below).
• Now you can see some settings like bottom layers and top layers.
• First, select your main subject image, and in the bottom layer, add this image by pressing the “Use selected image” button.
• After that, select the previously created Half Text Image, and in the top layer, add this image by pressing the “Use selected image” button.
• Change the blending mode to “Screen.”
• Now, in the preview window, you can see that your effects are done.
• You can also customize your design by using the “Adjust top layers” option.
• After all your customizations are complete, Press the “Add to design” button to add this image to your design.
• Maximize that image to full screen and delete both previous images to finalize that image.
• Now your half-face text effect is done.
