How to create Personalized Mood Boards with Your Own Artwork Using Milanote, Canva, and Lightroom - Step-by-Step Tutorials
Isn't it about time you celebrated your amazing creative talent?
It's easy to get lost in the sea of inspiration from others, but today, let's shine a light on your very own magic.
I invite you to make a mood board of your favorite images/art.
So, what's a mood board? It's an arrangement of images, materials, pieces of text, etc., all designed to evoke or project a specific style or concept.
In this post, I'll guide you through creating your own mood board using my top 3 favorite apps, with step-by-step instructions for each one.
Be sure to check out all the tutorials – there are lovely nuggets of inspo in each lesson.

I’m so inspired by the beautiful photography and stunning design of FieldFare magazine. Not to mention the truly inspiring story of how FieldFare came to be. Pop over and have a read.
“We wanted substance. We wanted print.
So yes, Fieldfare was truly hatched (wink wink) in our Instagram messages. But now, dear reader, we hope that in you she takes flight.”
I have a new podcast. Talking all the creative things. I’d love it if you checked it out.
Recently my lovely friend Cathy Penton interviewed me for her beautiful blog. You can read the post here. And be sure to sign up for Cathy’s weekly creative musings newsletter. It’s always so inspired.
Michelle Mollinga and I had a Zoom date to flip through Feel Free Volume Two, which is full of gold. (again). You can watch the recording on the insider blog.
Over to You
What’s inspiring you, my beautiful friend?
