Star your favorite photos, elements and fonts
Want to easily find that perfect photo, element, or font you discovered while designing? With the Star feature, you can bookmark your favorite content across Canva so it’s always within easy reach for future use.
You can star or unstar photos and elements from both the homepage and the editor. Canva saves starred photos and elements in the Starred content section of the Templates tab on the homepage.
You can only star fonts from the editor. Starred fonts appear in the starred section of the font list in your editor for quick access.
