Uploading a custom stationery image
Learn how to upload your own custom stationery design for your invitation ecard if you've created one using a design tool (Standard or Pro plan).
If you've designed your own invitation using Canva, Photoshop, or another design tool, you can upload it to display instead of the built-in templates.
Plan requirement: Standard or Pro plan
How to upload a custom stationery image
- Go to Ecards in your main navigation
- Select your invitation
- Go to the Design tab
- Look for the Custom stationery image section
- Click Upload custom stationery image
- Select your image file (PNG, GIF, or JPEG)
- Click Save changes
Use as background option
After uploading your image, you'll see a checkbox option:
Use as background - When enabled, your custom image is used as the background of the ecard. The template text and content overlay on top of it.
This is useful if you want to use your own background design while still using the template's text layout.
Deleting a custom image
To remove your custom stationery image and go back to the template:
- Go to your invitation's Design tab
- Find your uploaded image
- Click Delete
- Click Save changes
Tips
Design to the right dimensions. Check your template's proportions and design your custom stationery to match for the best results.
Consider text readability. Invitations have more text than save the dates. Make sure your custom design leaves room for readable text.
Test before sending. Preview your ecard with the custom image to make sure everything looks right and text is legible.
Keep a backup. Save your original design file in case you need to make adjustments later.
