It is possible to mirror text in Canva. Doing so can create interesting effects for your text, and can be helpful for a number of design projects.
Here is a step-by-step guide on how to mirror text in Canva:

Step 1: Create A New Page
Before you can achieve the mirroring effect, you need to create a separate page for the text you want to mirror. To do this, simply click on the “+” icon in the upper right-hand corner of the page.
Step 2: Copy The Text From The Design And Paste It Into The New Page
Once you have created the new page, copy the text from the design you wish to mirror then paste it into the new page.
Step 3: Save The Second Page As An Image With Transparent Background
With the text now on its own page, the next step is to export that page as an image file. Saving with a transparent background is what lets the mirrored copy sit cleanly under the original without a white box around it. To do this, click on the “Share” menu then choose “Download”. Tick “Transparent Background” and select “Page 2” then download the image.
Step 4: Upload The Downloaded Photo
Click “Upload” on the left-hand side of the screen and select the image you just downloaded.
Step 5: Flip And Resize The Text Image
Click on the image to select it then click on the “Flip” menu. Choose “Flip Horizontal” from the list of options. Place the image under the text on the first page, then resize it as necessary.
Step 6: Adjust Transparency
Now, to create a realistic-looking mirror effect, you will need to adjust the transparency of the image. To do this, click on the image and drag the “Transparency” slider to the left. Experiment with different settings until you are happy with the results.
