💌 Add a Coupon to Your Canva Thank You Card: Step-by-Step

Turn appreciation into repeat purchases with this easy design hack!

If you're selling on Etsy, running a digital shop, or simply want to add a personal touch to your packaging, a thank-you card with a coupon code is a simple but powerful tool.

And guess what? You can create it all in Canva—even if you’re brand new to design!

In this tutorial, I’ll show you exactly how to add a coupon to your thank-you card using

Canva, step-by-step. Let’s turn that thank-you into a next purchase!

🧰 What You’ll Need:

• A free Canva account (Pro is helpful, but not required)

• An existing thank-you card template or a blank 5x7 or 4x6 design

• A coupon code you’ve set up in your shop (like "THANKYOU15")

✨ Step 1: Open Your Thank You Card Design in Canva

Log into Canva and open the design you want to add your coupon to. If you don’t have one yet:

1. Click “Create a Design”

2. Choose 5x7 in (postcard) or 4x6 in

3. Start with a thank-you card template or design your own with your branding

🖋️ Step 2: Add a Text Box for the Coupon Message

Click Text → Add a Text Box and type your coupon message. Try something like:

💛 Use code THANKYOU15 for 15% off your next purchase!It’s my way of saying thanks for supporting my shop!

Make sure your text is:

• Easy to read (bold or script for the code itself works great!)

• Sized appropriately for the card

• Positioned clearly—bottom center or right side are common spots

🎨 Step 3: Style It to Match Your Brand

Make it feel cohesive with the rest of your card:

• Use your brand colors or your shop’s summer palette

• Try a decorative box, border, or sticker element to draw attention

• Add a dotted or dashed border to mimic a “coupon” look

💡 Canva has “coupon” clipart and frames—try searching “voucher” or “coupon” in Elements!

🔗 Step 4: (Optional) Add a QR Code That Links to Your Shop

Want to make it even easier for customers to redeem their code?

1. Click Apps → QR Code

2. Paste in your shop or discount page URL

3. Canva will generate a scannable code to add right on the card

📱 This works beautifully for physical thank-you cards or digital downloads!

🖨️ Step 5: Download and Print

Once you're done designing:

• Click Share → Download

• Choose PDF Print for best print quality

• Print on premium cardstock or send it as a digital insert with your order

🖨️ Tip: Print multiples on a single sheet using Canva’s “8.5x11 layout” to save paper!
