Sunday Freebie: Moodboard Template

March 15, 2015

Free Moodboard Template

As a graphic designer, I often use moodboards when starting a new design. This is an essential part of the process as it helps me figure out the tone of the design. I love creating moodboard templates, but it is also time-consuming. If you want a quick way to create one, this download is just what you are looking for.

You will need Photoshop CS or CC to use it, and also a basic understanding of layers and clipping masks.

How to use the free moodboard template:

1. Drag and drop the photo into the document
2. Re-size it if needed
3. Go to the Layers panel and drag your photo layer above the numbered layer you want to use
4. Right-click on the photo layer and select Create Clipping Mask (or go to Layer/Create Clipping Mask)
5. Do the same for all your photos

Download the moodboard template

If you use it for a project, please leave a link in the comments. I would love to check it out!

Please do not resell, redistribute, or claim this template as your own. If you want to share it, please leave a link to this post.
