How to Print Your Canva Christmas Card Design at Shutterfly
If you’ve designed your Christmas card in Canva, you can upload your finished design to Shutterfly and order professionally printed Christmas cards.
Our Upload Your Own Design option lets you keep the design you’ve already created while taking advantage of Shutterfly’s premium printing, paper options, trim styles, custom envelopes with FREE recipient address printing, and Mail for Me® Service with plain white envelopes.
Step 1: Create Your Canva Christmas Card Design
Start by designing your Christmas card in Canva. Choose your layout, add your favorite photos, customize your text, and make any finishing touches before downloading your design.
For the best results, make sure your design matches the size of the Christmas card you plan to order and keep important text and photos away from the edges.

Before moving on, review your design one last time to make sure everything looks exactly the way you want it.

Upload your downloaded design to your selected Christmas card.
Once your file is uploaded, preview your card to make sure everything is positioned correctly and that no important details are too close to the trim or fold.
