Create the structure
Before selecting the content, you must choose the column layout you prefer for each section. To do this, select your preferences in the “Structure” section. You can combine multiple types of columns to achieve your desired design.
From scratch
This option will allow you to design your template manually. Once the structure is defined, add content blocks. You can choose from:
- Text → Add and customize text blocks with formatting options such as bold, italics, alignment, and links.
- Images → Insert images into your template and adjust their size, alignment, and links to personalize the visual content.
- GIF → Add animated images in GIF format.
- Buttons → Create customizable call-to-action (CTA) buttons with text, colour, and links to direct recipients to a specific page.
- Dividers → Add line dividers to separate content and organize your template.
- Spacing → Add blank spaces between blocks or sections for better organization and a cleaner design.
- Social → Include social media icons with links to your profiles.
- Video → Insert a preview linked to platforms like YouTube or Vimeo.
- HTML → Add HTML code for advanced content.
- Products → Highlight artworks with images, titles, and buttons.
- Carousel → Showcase multiple images of artworks in a rotating format.
Customize the content of your template and organize the elements as needed to achieve your desired structure.
Premade blocks
If you prefer to use a guide, the editor offers predefined blocks that make building your template easier. These blocks include:
- Headers → Create a header with your logo and highlighted text.
- Content Areas → Flexible sections that allow you to combine text, images, and buttons in the same space.
- E-commerce Sections → Specific blocks to highlight artworks, incorporating images, prices, and action buttons.

Once the structure is defined you can edit them with your own text, images, colours, etc.
