Canva launches #CanvaPasko Designed By You Contest

Design a Canva Christmas Card for a chance to see it in EDS

To help Filipinos celebrate Christmas, Canva is launching #CanvaPasko Designed By You, an online contest where for the first time ever – lucky winners will see their Canva Christmas cards live on a huge billboard in EDSA!

“Christmas is a very special occasion for many Filipinos. It’s a time when we come together to express our love for family, officemates, barkada, and our special someone. For times when words aren’t enough, we’re encouraging every Filipino in the Philippines and worldwide to mark the occasion with a very special tribute - design a beautiful Christmas card on Canva for free for a chance to see it displayed on a huge billboard in EDSA.
