Make a Letter Collage - Step by Step Instructions
Let's see how to make a collage from letters of DIY.
We'll use screenshots of the Windows PC app for this demo. Still, Mac users can follow the same steps because the interface and functionality are similar on both platforms.
1. Open FigrCollage software, and click "Use Text" as the shape as shown in the screenshot below. Enter the letter, word, or text you want to turn into a photo collage. For this example, we will make a collage for "DIY". You may want to set a font for your text.
2. Add Pictures to use in the collage. For this example, we have used pictures of flowers.
3. Select the "Freeform" cell style and "Default" cell placement, and then click "Generate Collage" to build your letter photo collage.
You can select different cell styles and cell placements, as shown in the table below to create various letter-shaped photo collages.
