  <div class="flex-container">
    <div class="flex-items">
      <div class="flex-container2">
        <div class="flex-items2">
          <img src="./images/resize-16462332111065516967imageqrcode.png">

     </div>
    </div>
    
 </div>
</body>
</html>

CSS:

body{
      background-color: hsl(212, 45%, 89%);
      font-family: 'Bigelow Rules', cursive;
    font-family: 'Outfit', sans-serif;
  }

  .flex-container {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    flex-wrap: wrap;
    justify-content: center;
    align-items: center;
    align-content: center;
    background-color: hsl(212, 45%, 89%);
  }
  
  .flex-items:nth-child(1) {
    display: block;
    flex-grow: 0;
    flex-shrink: 1;
    flex-basis: auto;
    align-self: auto;
    order: 0;
  }

  .flex-container2 {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    flex-wrap: wrap;
    justify-content: center;
    align-items: center;
    align-content: center;
  }
  
  .flex-items2:nth-child(1) {
    display: block;
    flex-grow: 0;
    flex-shrink: 1;
    flex-basis: auto;
    align-self: auto;
    order: 0;
  }

  img{
    border-radius: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
  }

  h1{
    font-weight: 700;
  }

  p{
    font-weight: 400;
  }

>Solution :

You can add a few css properties like this:

.flex-container {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
flex-wrap: wrap;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
align-content: center;
background-color:#FFF;
width: 300px;
margin: 0 auto; /* center the div */
border-radius: 15px;
}
