make a collage with me

April 8, 2022April 4, 2022 willow | beautiful days4 Comments

hey guys! i thought it might be fun to make a collage with me post. i make collages all the time, and i’m hoping this helps you if you want to start making some. the majority of this post is photos, so if you are reading this in an email or the reader, you can open it up to see the photos.

i use canva to make my collages.

if you go to canva.com, you can find several different sizes and shapes of templates.

today we will be using the poster option, but you can use any size you want.

your screen should now look something like this.

then, i searched up peach aesthetic in pinterest.

i copied and pasted a bunch of pictures into canva, and started spacing them out.

i now have all of my photos arranged in a collage, but they are really different, and they don’t really look like a put together collage.

now, i’m going to add a filter called whimsical to the photos. (in case you were wondering, i changed a few of the photos)

the filter now helps all of the photos look cohesive!

then, i thought the collage looked a little plain, so i added a quote called tan meringue.

alright, that’s all for today, i hope you enjoyed it! i’ll see you next time!

my 2022 vision board + why you should make yours

January 21, 2022January 9, 2022 willow | beautiful days14 Comments

Hey y’all! I hope you’ve had a great week! I’ve been trying to keep up with posting, and I think I’ve done a pretty good job. Today I’ll be showing you my 2022 vision board, how I made it, and why you should make one too.

This is my 2022 vision board (the little spots are covering up a personal photo)

I first chose a color scheme to make my vision board cohesive. I chose a light beige, green, and white.

These are some colors close to my vision board.

2. Figure out what you want to be in 2022

This is basically making goals.

I added pictures of journaling because I want to do more of that in 2022.
I added pictures of Paris because I’ve been there once and it’s my favorite place I’ve ever been to.
I added some smoothie / acai bowls, and oatmeal bowls because I think they taste super good.
I added pictures of flexibility / working out because those are things I want to focus on in 2022.
Then I filled the rest of the collage with inspo quotes, these really cute nails, and some cute outfits.

3. Find photos that have your goals and color scheme

This step is pretty explanatory lol.

4. Open up Canva or a Google Slide

If you don’t want use Canva, you can also use a Google Slide. I’d recommend using Canva because there are filters, but I’ll get back into that later.

5. Use a filter

I’d like to thank Diary Of A Daydreamer for mentioning that Canva has filters, because I wouldn’t have known if she hadn’t said that lol. I linked her post where she described her vision board. I used the filter called Fresco.

This makes everything match, just like she said.

why should i make one?

You can have a visual reminder of your goals whenever you open your computer
They’re super fun to make
You can get inspo from other people’s vision boards

And a soo many more!

I hope you enjoyed this post, and I’ll see you next week!

Hey y’all! I went to Utah! It was absolutely amazing and the snow was wonderful! So, I thought, why not make a photo dump. This is probably going to be a super short post just with pictures, but, why not?

I hope you enjoy!
