In such a scenario, you need to manually create this effect by taking an image, splitting it into half, and merging them by leaving an imperfection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-greenshift-blocks-image gspb_image gspb_image-id-gsbp-e5efe835-7c10\" id=\"gspb_image-id-gsbp-e5efe835-7c10\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pttrns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Splitting-an-image.png\" data-src=\"\" alt=\"Splitting an image\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1091\" height=\"562\"\/><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We suggest avoiding this hard approach and consider checking out dedicated image editors like Adobe Photoshop as you get more flexibility and ready tools to achieve the slice effect with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"related-reading\">Related Reading<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pttrns.com\/how-to-do-strikethrough-in-canva\/\">How To Do Strikethrough in Canva<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pttrns.com\/how-to-select-all-in-canva\/\">How To Select All in Canva<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pttrns.com\/how-to-freehand-crop-in-canva\/\">How to Freehand Crop in Canva<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pttrns.com\/how-to-wrap-text-in-canva\/\">How To Wrap Text in Canva<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you trying to create a slice effect in Canva?
