Creating branded mockups has never been easier using Canva. Whether you want to share your latest blog post, a new product release. In this post, you’ll learn How to Use Canva to Create Beautiful Branded Mockups.

Canva makes it so easy for you to share your branded content. I use it to basically create all my graphic designs. If you’re a regular to theblogsocial.com you know how much I love Canva!

What is Canva?

Canva is a free graphic design platform that allows you to easily create invitations, business cards, flyers, social media graphics, and more using professionally designed templates.

You can even upload your own photos and add them to Canva’s templates using a drag and drop interface. It’s like having a basic version of Photoshop that’s free and doesn’t require extensive photo editing knowledge to use.

Step One

Pull up the page you’d like to record and use the Window Resizer chrome extension, this allows you to resize your window for the device mockup you’ll be using.

Step Two

Using Loom or another screen recording software of your choice, record a video clip of you scrolling through the page you want to feature. Save the video to your computer. If you have a Mac or iPhone simply use the build-in recording tool to take a screen record.

Step Three

Open up a new design in Canva (any size is fine, choose whichever you’re designing for). 

Select a mockup frame or tech mockup scene in Canva, or bring in a template you’ve purchased. You can find gorgeous mockup-styled photo photography for free on Pexels or Unsplash. I am using styled stock images from Girlboss Stock and Hautestock (if you want to know more about Hautestock click here).

Upload your video or screenshot to Canva and drag and drop it into your tech frame.

Step Six

Now you can crop and position it the way you want it displayed.

Step Seven

Download as a GIF (preferred) or an MP4 video and upload it wherever you’d like to share!

Creating professional-looking mockups has never been easier! All of this can be done by using a free Canva account. To get access to even more sign up for a free 30-day Canva pro account here.
