When you find the pictures- you have to figure out how to put them together! i personally use picsart to make my moodboards and then vsco for finishing details. for objects and other pictures- i type in something like “sheets aesthetic” or “studying aesthetic” to find nice pictures! if you’re including people (which i highly recommend), think about the ages/appearances of the characters in your fic (i don’t want to assume it’s h&l so i’m going to say characters) and find pictures that fit those ideas! for me, pinterest is a really helpful tool for finding pictures (not just of people but in general) but i also just type in “harry styles 2017″ or “harry styles age 22″ in the search bar to filter through pictures of him to fit the age/era he has in the fic. more specifically, i think about the most important aspects of the fic i’m writing and think of how to incorporate it in the moodboard! for example, PEACHES for the peach fic was obviously something i wanted to include in the moodboard but it doesn’t have to be quite that obvious haha. The first thing i do when making a moodboard is brainstorming elements to include. Here are some examples of the original templates, and then what my finished ones look like.Oooo okay! i am definitely not an expert by any means but maybe that’s even better because if i can do it, you can do it! You can duplicate and move it, to cover the space (you can see some examples below - the beige flower pattern in the Din one, the black velvet for Alfred). There isn’t an easy way to do this - the best way I figured out is to find an image of the texture you want, and then to add a photo frame with a torn or jagged edge in the very back (and then use your new texture there). I also like adding fabric texture to the backgrounds, to fill the space between the photo frames. I usually use them to hide harsh edges or in places that look a little empty. You can use the Position tool on them to fit them in-between or in front of your photos. My fave searches for Graphics recently are: ripped paper, grunge patterns (to use in the background), star patterns, dried flowers, and dried leaves. I love love layering with my moodboard, so I will go back to the + / Elements tab, and then search for things to layer in. Once you add your photos, then comes the details! You can change the background color and add/change the fonts (or upload your fave font to use!) Try out all the tools on the toolbar to see what you can do, there’s a lot of options. There’s a button on the toolbar that says Position, and you can shift the object forward/back between the items around it. Once they’re added, you can move them wherever you want. You can scroll through them all, but my fave keywords to use in the search bar is: polaroid, torn, and ripped. Then go back to the + menu, and then Elements, and scroll down to Frames. You can replace the frames they use by clicking on the item and then clicking the Trashcan. When working on moodboards, I like to move things around. Double tap to move and resize your image within the frame, (and there are also filters you can use if you want!) I mostly get mine from Pinterest and Google Images.Īfter that, go back to your template and click on the different photo frames, and use the Replace button in the toolbar - it will let you replace the template photos with your own. The Elements tab have items you can add in (more on that later) - for now you want to go to Uploads, and add the photos you want to use. Once you’re in the template, you can press the + in the bottom corner to bring up the menus. The linked templates above are all free ones that you can use right away. One | two | three | four | five | six | seven | eightĪnything with a crown is for Canva Pro members - you used to be able to use the templates as a free member (just not the paid assets) but that changed recently. I usually use: photo collage, scrapbook, aesthetic moodboard - all of these will pull up pre-made templates for you to use. To start - open the app/page and use the search bar at the top to search for a template. I got a kind message asking how I make moodboards in Canva, so I wanted to do a little tutorial! Canva is a free graphic design app/website, and I use it for everything.
