Built for Etsy Digital Product Sellers
Digital products are intangible. Buyers cannot hold them, flip through them, or see them on a shelf. Your listing photos are the only way to make a PDF, SVG, or template feel real and worth paying for. EditThisPic lets you place your designs into realistic scenes that help buyers visualize the product in their life, which is the number one factor in digital product conversion.
Tools Digital Product Sellers Use Most

Place your digital product screenshot into a styled desk scene or device mockup
Lifestyle Scene

How to Create Digital Product Mockups
-
Upload your design screenshot or file preview
Drop your digital product screenshot into EditThisPic. This could be a planner page PDF export, a printable design PNG, an SVG preview, or a template screenshot. JPG, PNG, and WebP up to 7MB. Higher resolution screenshots give better mockup results.
Simple background changes: 15-20 seconds. Full lifestyle mockup scenes: may need 2-3 refinements to get the device angle and scene right. -
Describe your ideal mockup scene
Type exactly what you want: 'show this planner page on an iPad Pro on a clean white desk with a cup of coffee and gold pen nearby' or 'display this printable in a white frame on a gallery wall.' Be specific about the device, surface, props, and lighting. The AI creates realistic scenes from your description.
Match the mockup to your target buyer. Planners belong on organized desks with cute stationery. Wedding templates look best in soft, romantic settings. Business templates need clean, professional environments. -
Verify design readability and scene realism
Zoom in to check that your design text is readable, colors are accurate, and the device or frame perspective looks natural. The mockup should look like a real photo, not a design pasted on top of a stock image. Edges should blend naturally.
If the design text is too small to read in the mockup, use a zoomed-in crop of one page or section instead of the full multi-page spread. -
Create a mockup set for your listing
Etsy gives you 10 listing photos. Use different scenes for each: iPad mockup, printed and framed, desk flat lay, close-up detail, and full overview. Apply similar lighting and color temperature across all mockups for brand consistency.
Your first image should be the most eye-catching mockup for thumbnail appeal. Images 2-5 should show different pages or features. Images 6-10 can show the product in use or include text overlays with features.

Common Digital Product Mockup Issues
Design text is unreadable or blurry in the mockup
Why: When placing a design on a device screen at an angle, small text gets compressed and becomes illegible. The AI may also soften text during the scene generation.
place this design on [device], keeping all text sharp and readable, maintain original text clarity at full resolution
For text-heavy designs like planners, use a close-up crop of one page rather than the full multi-page overview. Readability sells.
The mockup looks like a flat image pasted onto a photo
Why: Without proper perspective, shadow, and lighting cues, the design does not integrate naturally into the scene.
place this design on [device/surface] with realistic perspective matching the scene angle, natural reflections on screen, subtle shadow consistent with scene lighting
Mention 'realistic perspective' and 'matching scene lighting' to help the AI integrate your design naturally rather than just overlaying it.
Design colors look different in the mockup than the original
Why: Scene lighting and ambient color from the mockup environment can shift how your design colors appear. Warm scenes add yellow to cool-toned designs.
place this design in [scene], maintaining exact original design colors without any color shift from the ambient lighting
For pastel designs that are sensitive to color shifts, choose neutral lighting ('soft white light') rather than warm ('golden hour').
Device screen looks fake or has wrong proportions
Why: The AI may generate a device that does not match real proportions, or the screen size may not match where your design should display.
show this design on a realistic [exact device name], correct proportions and screen size, the design should fill the screen naturally
Specify the exact device: 'iPad Pro 12.9 inch' rather than just 'tablet.' More specific device names give more accurate results.
Mockup scene props distract from the digital product
Why: Too many props or busy backgrounds compete with your design for attention. The design should be the hero of every mockup.
place this design on [device/surface], minimal props, clean composition with the design as the clear focal point, blurred background elements
Less is more with mockup props. A coffee cup and one plant is enough. Five props creates visual noise that hurts conversion.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best mockup style for Etsy digital products?
It depends on the product type. Planners and worksheets look best on iPad mockups because that is how buyers will use them. Wall art belongs in framed-on-wall scenes. SVG files should be shown applied to products like mugs or shirts. Business templates work well on laptop screens. The goal is always to help buyers visualize the product in their actual life, not just see a flat file.
Do I need to upload a screenshot or the actual design file?
Upload a screenshot or PNG export of your design. The AI works with images, not raw files like PDFs or SVGs. Export your design at the highest resolution possible, ideally 2000px or more on the longest side. For multi-page products like planners, upload one hero page that shows the design at its best, then create separate mockups for other pages.
How many mockup images should I create per listing?
Etsy gives you 10 listing photos. Use all 10. Start with your strongest device mockup as the thumbnail. Follow with 2-3 more mockup angles, then 2-3 pages or features shown close-up, then 1-2 lifestyle scenes, and finish with a text overlay listing key features or what is included. More images means more information, which means higher conversion.
Can I create mockups for printable sticker sheets?
Yes. Try 'show this sticker sheet printed on glossy paper with some stickers peeled and placed on a planner.' Showing stickers in use, not just as a flat sheet, dramatically increases perceived value. You can also show individual stickers applied to a laptop or water bottle for context.
How do I make my digital product stand out against competitors using the same Canva mockups?
Describe unique, specific scenes instead of generic ones. Instead of 'iPad on desk,' try 'iPad Pro on terrazzo desk with matcha latte and eucalyptus stem, morning light through sheer curtains.' The more specific your scene, the more unique your mockup. Your competitors are all using the same five stock mockup templates. Custom AI scenes are infinitely more varied.
Will the AI maintain my exact brand colors in the mockup?
Yes, when you specify it. Add 'maintain exact original design colors' to your prompt. Scene lighting can subtly shift colors, so for brand-critical colors, mention them: 'keep the coral pink and sage green exactly as original.' Avoid warm or moody scene lighting if color accuracy matters more than ambiance.
