Create Mockups with AI
As I said in my last post, the idea that you can create all kinds of mockups in AI really blows my mind. Perhaps I’m a little slow to this. When I google the phrase, “create mockups with AI” there are already tons of results, including AI mockup generator apps and video tutorials. After buying a mockup recently on Etsy, (and suspecting it was made with AI!) I decided to try it myself. What I discovered is that it is actually fast and easy, and you don’t need to buy a separate app.
Here is what I used:
ChatGPT to write the prompt.
Midjourney to generate the image.
Procreate app to develop the mockup.
It took less than 30 minutes to create these mockups with AI, to showcase my surface pattern design!



The one thing that was different from my usual process, was that I decided to try out midjourney. I usually use the Wombo app, which I love: It’s fast, it’s quirky, with lots of really fun filters to play with. I’m constantly creating weird little objects to add to my collages. I had a feeling that Midjourney would create more simple results, with less weirdness. Turns out I was correct. Midjourney was much better than Wombo. Wombo made a little box to put the fabric in – how cute! But not what I was hoping for.

This is the prompt I used to create mockups with AI:
“Highly detailed mockup image of a white cloth swatch on a wooden background. The cloth appears soft and premium, with a subtle texture visible in each fiber. Bright, diffused natural lighting emphasizes the smoothness and pristine whiteness of the cloth. The wooden background is warm-toned, with a slight matte finish, creating a tasteful contrast. Shot with a high-resolution DSLR camera, 85mm lens, aperture f/2.8 to capture depth of field with the cloth in sharp focus while the background is softly blurred. The composition feels minimalist and stylish, with a hint of luxury and sophistication.”
IMidjourney basically churned out what I wanted right away. I then put the same prompt into the Wombo app. The results were somewhat interesting, but I had to do lots of tweaking to get close to what I wanted.
The implications of this really blows my mind. I can now create endless mockups with all kinds of products. It inspires me to jump back into the print on demand business. It also inspires me to get back to creating digital products, and to use the AI mockups to help the buyer envision the product as art that they can hang on their walls. And it’s much easier than these mockups I painstakingly created in my living room:
