Today I’ll show you how to make graphics on Picmonkey…. and how to make this pretty Summer Dream Instagram photo that I designed just for you
to use as an art print to hang or to use on your Instagram page!!
Go to PicMonkey (a free online photo editing website) and click on Edit:
….and open an image – I started with this Dream image
Crop it to a square for Instagram:
Add and position the text – you can use the fonts that PicMonkey has or you can use your own fonts!
I added a fun summer quote.
….and choose the color you’d like your text to be – I chose white.
Go to PicMonkey Textures (the far left icon above the apple icon) and add a layer of bokeh from Picmonkey.
Go to PicMonkey Overlays (butterfly image on the far left) and go to the top where it says ‘Your Own’ click it and add a water image
….and use the fade bar to fade it (in the overlay pop up box).
Go to PicMonkey Overlays (butterfly image on the far left) again and add a few rows of flourishes to the bottom of the image – you can make them any color, I chose aqua and white.
Save your image to your computer.
That’s it!
Get this FREE Summer Dream Instagram Photo here!
Use it on your Instagram page or print it off as a beautiful DIY art print to hang!
Wouldn’t this look beautiful in an art gallery wall?
