These can often be some of the most sharable posts, and a well-made mini slideshow can help you to achieve your social media and business goals. With Picsart\u2019s new Multicanvas feature, creating your own carousels that pop and drive engagement has never been easier. If you\u2019re a small business looking to show off your new season\u2019s products, or a social media manager, wanting to give your followers top tips on how to spruce up their feeds, this feature is a must.<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-226667-1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2025\/02\/CR4636.-Social-LinkedIn-video-for-Multicanvas.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2025\/02\/CR4636.-Social-LinkedIn-video-for-Multicanvas.mp4\">https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2025\/02\/CR4636.-Social-LinkedIn-video-for-Multicanvas.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<h2><span id=\"Step_1_Open_up_a_new_file_and_click_add_page\">Step 1: Open up a new file and click add page<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start by creating a new project in Picsart. Click on &#8220;Add Page&#8221; to begin building your carousel. Each page represents a new slide, so think about how your content will flow from one frame to the next. Before getting started, it can be useful to plan out what you want to include in each slide to be sure you\u2019re staying on track and planning your carousel accordingly.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Step_2_Add_your_background\">Step 2: Add your background<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Add a background with a bit of pizzazz! Generate your own that matches your vibe and sets the tone for your carousel. Upload your own brand colors, choose a gradient, or select from Picsart\u2019s library of high-quality images. If you want a carousel that flows, make sure your backgrounds align across all pages.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Step_3_Choose_your_font\">Step 3: Choose your font<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Typography is designed to exude an essence you\u2019re looking to portray. Select a font that works with your brand\u2019s style. A bold modern font can be incorporated to grab attention, or a classic minimalistic type may be more your thing. You may even want to find a second font that compliments the original style for additional visual impact.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Step_4_Add_finishing_touches\">Step 4: Add finishing touches\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now it&#8217;s time to make your carousel dazzle! Incorporate stickers, shapes, and brand elements for added visual appeal. Remember to keep it balanced: too many elements can make your slides look cluttered, but an overly minimal slide may lose your audience\u2019s interest. If you\u2019re including text-heavy content, break it up with bullet points.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Step_5_Export_and_post\">Step 5: Export and post<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019re happy with your carousel, export it and share it to your social media channels. If you&#8217;re posting on Instagram, make sure your dimensions align with the platform\u2019s new specifications for top-quality swipe-through experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Get ready to make the quick and beautiful carousels that\u2019ll grab your audience\u2019s attention, convey your message, and promote shareability. With Multicanvas, visual storytelling is easy, helping you to boost engagement, while staying true to your branding. If you\u2019re looking to educate your audience, promote a product, or share insights, these five simple steps will be sure to move you closer to your goal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create your own carousel now by heading to <a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/\">picsart.com<\/a> or by downloading the <a href=\"https:\/\/picsart.com\/apps\">Picsart app<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/editing-tools\"><b><i>Empowering the Creator in Everyone<\/i><\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Picsart is the world\u2019s largest digital creation platform.
