A COLLECTION THAT BELONGS TO THEM

One style. So many possibilities.

Harry’s collection began with a little character in blue dungarees. The dinosaur colours, soft paper textures and yellow stitching gave us a starting point for an entire bedroom set.

The character does not need to appear in every picture. A big initial, a name or a few favourite words can carry the same style in a different way. That gives the collection variety while helping the pieces feel at home together.

Your starting artwork can be watercolour, layered paper or another illustration style you love. The reference image is what helps the AI follow its appearance.

Build your collection in three simple steps

Choose your starting artwork.
Use an approved child illustration or another finished artwork whose style you love. If you are starting with a photograph, our children’s wall-art guide helps you create that first character. Explore the guide →
Attach the right reference.
Upload the finished artwork with the prompt. For name prints and word art, an initial or lettering-based artwork can be especially useful: it shows the AI letter shapes as well as colours and textures.
Make the details theirs.
Change the personal details, copy the complete prompt and create your picture. Check the finished wording, choose your favourites and save the original image files.

01 / FIVE WAYS TO MAKE IT THEIRS

Their character and their pet

A picture of a child with their family dog makes a lovely personal companion to the original character. Here, Harry stands beside Cassey, a chestnut Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, with her name clearly shown on her collar.

Change the pet’s name, breed and coat description. The prompt uses your approved child illustration as its only image reference.

Full prompt — editable

Use my attached approved child-character illustration as the only image reference.

Create one original portrait-format artwork of the same child with their pet dog. Create the dog from the editable description below.

EDITABLE PET DETAILS:
Pet name: Cassey
Dog breed: Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
Coat colour: rich chestnut red, with slightly lighter golden feathering and no large white patches.

Preserve the child’s recognisable face, hairstyle, eye colour, skin tone, age, proportions and clothing from the attached illustration.

Match the illustration’s visual style throughout, including its textures, edges, shading and level of detail. Give the dog the same artistic treatment so both characters belong naturally in one artwork.

Show the child standing beside the dog, with one hand resting gently on its head or shoulder. The dog sits comfortably beside them, looking towards the viewer. Keep both faces fully visible and their interaction warm and affectionate.

Make the dog recognisable as the specified breed. Follow that breed’s characteristic head shape, muzzle, ears, body proportions and coat texture. Use the coat colour and markings given in the editable details. Keep its anatomy believable and its size appropriate beside the child.

Give the dog a collar coordinated with the illustration’s colours, with a neat contrasting name patch attached directly to its front. Print the editable pet name on this patch in clear, dark uppercase letters. Copy the name exactly, changing only its letter case. Keep the complete name readable and unobstructed by fur, ears or the child’s hand.

Use a pure white background, generous breathing room and a subtle shadow beneath their feet and paws.

Portrait 2:3 composition. Show the complete child and dog, including shoes, paws and tail. No scenery, border, frame, room mockup, logos, watermark or text beyond the collar name.

02 / FIVE WAYS TO MAKE IT THEIRS

Their big initial

Make one bold letter the centre of the picture, then add a few things they love. Dinosaurs, a toy car and a teddy bear give this H its own little personality.

Change the initial and favourite things. The child is left out of the finished picture, while the reference supplies its colours, textures and style.

Full prompt — editable

Use my attached approved illustration as a reference for its visual style, colours and textures.
Create one original personalised initial artwork that belongs in the same matching bedroom collection.
EDITABLE DETAILS:
Initial: H
Favourite things: dinosaurs, a toy car and a teddy bear.
Make the single uppercase initial specified above the dominant subject. Use a large, bold, upright letter with a clear, recognisable shape. Keep it beautifully proportioned and comfortably readable.
Study the reference’s colour palette, textures, edges and shading. Apply those same qualities to the letter and surrounding illustrations. Let the reference determine the artistic style. For a layered paper illustration, retain its subtle paper grain, carefully cut shapes, raised edges and delicate shadows between layers.
Use a dominant colour from the reference for the main letter, with a few coordinated accents drawn from the same palette.
Arrange small illustrations of the listed favourite things around the letter’s base and outer edges. A little overlap is welcome, but keep the initial clearly visible. Give each object the same artistic treatment as the reference. Keep their arrangement playful, balanced and uncluttered.
Do not include the child or any other person. No child peeking around the letter, human faces, silhouettes or miniature human figures.
Match the reference’s background colour and leave generous breathing room around the complete design. The result should feel like a carefully designed companion print for a child’s bedroom.
Portrait 2:3 composition. Keep the entire letter and all illustrations visible. No additional letters, names, wording, border, frame, room mockup, logos or watermark.

03 / FIVE WAYS TO MAKE IT THEIRS

The things they love

Mummy, Daddy, fish and chips, bedtime stories: the little things that make up their world can become the artwork. Add favourite people, pets, foods, toys and familiar phrases.

Change the heading and list your own favourites, one entry per line. Keep multi-word phrases together and check every word in the finished image.

EDITABLE WORDING:

Favourite words and phrases:

Tractors
Fish and chips
Snuggles
Cassey
Dinosaurs
Toy cars
Teddy bears
Bedtime stories
Place the heading prominently above a beautifully balanced collection of the listed favourite words and phrases.
Include every listed entry exactly once, spelled correctly. Keep every multi-word entry together so it reads as one complete phrase. Render only the heading and listed favourites.
Create a thoughtful typographic composition with varied lettering sizes and a restrained mix of two complementary lettering styles. Keep all wording upright, comfortably readable and carefully spaced. Arrange the favourites into a cohesive composition beneath the heading, with natural variation in line lengths and scale.
Study the reference’s palette, textures, edges and shading. Translate those qualities into the lettering so this print belongs beside the original illustration. For a layered paper reference, use carefully cut letter shapes, subtle paper grain, softly raised edges and delicate shadows. Keep the letterforms clear and precise.
Use the reference’s strongest colours for the larger words, with coordinated lighter accents for smaller entries. Maintain enough contrast for every word to remain readable.
Match the reference’s background colour. Leave generous outer margins and breathing room between the lettering.
Do not include the child, people, animal characters or illustrated scenes. Keep the design focused on the personalised typography.
Portrait 2:3 composition. No overlapping words, clipped lettering, extra wording, border, frame, room mockup, logos or watermark.

Same prompt, different reference — compare both results

We tried the same word-art prompt with the child illustration and then with the H artwork. Both picked up the collection’s colours and textures. The H reference also carried its bold letter shapes and yellow stitching into the result, making it a closer match to the initial print.

04 / FIVE WAYS TO MAKE IT THEIRS

Their name, in their style

A name print gives the collection a personal centrepiece. Friendly dinosaurs sit around Harry’s name while the blue letters and fine yellow stitching connect it with the other pictures.

Change the name and theme. Choose the spelling and capitalisation you want to see, and let a few small illustrations support the name.

EDITABLE DETAILS:
Child’s name: Harry
Theme: friendly dinosaurs.
Make the child’s name the dominant subject. Copy its spelling and capitalisation exactly. Show it as one complete, clearly readable word, prominently positioned near the centre of the composition.
Use beautifully proportioned, bold lettering inspired by the attached artwork. Where the reference contains lettering, carry its characteristic letter shapes and decorative details into the name.
Match the reference’s artistic style throughout. For layered paper artwork, use carefully cut letter shapes, subtle paper grain, softly raised edges and delicate shadows between layers. Retain any distinctive details, such as fine decorative stitching, where they suit the reference.
Use the reference’s dominant colour for most of the name, with restrained accents drawn from the same palette. Keep every letter clearly distinguishable from the background.
Arrange a few small illustrations from the editable theme around the base and outer ends of the name. Give them the same textures, colours and artistic treatment as the lettering. Keep them playful and carefully balanced, with the name remaining the main feature.
Allow small overlaps at the outer edges, but keep every letter readable. Preserve all letters as proper letterforms rather than replacing them with illustrations.
Do not include the child or any other person.

Same prompt, different reference — compare both results

The character reference produced rounder lettering and softly coloured dinosaurs. The H reference produced stronger serif letters and stitching that sit closely beside the initial and word art. The prompt stayed the same; the starting artwork changed the result.

A little bedtime picture

A sleepy character, a moon and a few stars make a gentle final piece for the room. This little dinosaur keeps the collection’s paper textures and colours, with “Sleep tight, little one” beneath it.

Change the bedtime subject and wording. Leave the wording blank if you would prefer an illustration without text.

EDITABLE DETAILS:
Main subject: a friendly baby dinosaur.
Wording: Sleep tight, little one

Show one sleeping version of the main subject specified above, resting comfortably with its head on a small pillow. Give it peacefully closed eyes and a relaxed, believable pose. Keep its complete body visible. Where the reference includes this subject, carry through its characteristic shapes and details.

Place a small crescent moon and a few simple stars above the sleeping subject. Give them the same artistic treatment as the reference. Keep these details delicate and well spaced, with the sleeping subject remaining the main illustration.

Study the reference’s palette, textures, edges and shading. Match those qualities throughout so this feels like a companion to the original artwork. For layered paper artwork, use carefully cut shapes, subtle paper grain, softly raised edges and delicate shadows between layers. Retain fine decorative stitching where it suits the reference.

Use coordinated colours drawn from the reference for the subject, pillow, moon and stars. Preserve its overall balance of light and dark.

Place the editable wording beneath the illustration in clear, beautifully proportioned lettering inspired by the reference. Copy its spelling, punctuation and capitalisation exactly, including the complete phrase once. Use one or two carefully balanced lines with comfortable spacing. If the wording field is left blank, omit all text.

Match the reference’s background colour. Leave generous outer margins and breathing room between the illustration and lettering. Keep the composition calm, warm and uncluttered.

Do not include the child or any other person.

What else could you make?

Once you have a style you love, you can keep building on it. Try:

An alphabet or counting print with their favourite animals, vehicles or toys.
A storybook cover with their name and an adventure title.
A birthday or birth-details print using matching lettering.
A picture with a sibling, grandparent or favourite companion.
A favourite place: the seaside, a farm, a woodland or an imaginary island.
A future adventure: a space explorer, dinosaur keeper or little gardener.

Choose a few ideas that mean something to your child. A collection feels more personal when it reflects their favourite people and everyday interests.

A few checks before it goes on the wall

Save the original generated image rather than taking a screenshot. Read every name and phrase closely, and check that all letters, faces and favourite details are complete.

Keep the whole design visible when choosing a print size. These examples use a portrait 2:3 composition; A-series paper is a different shape, so fitting the full picture can leave some extra white space. If you use a mount, check its picture opening as well as its frame size.

For canvas, keep names and faces comfortably on the front. If you would like help choosing a size or checking a file, get in touch. Explore the guide → For more home-printing and framing advice, visit our children’s wall-art guide. Explore the guide →

Questions about making a matching collection

Do all the pictures need to include my child?

No. The pet example keeps the child character, while the initial, word art, name and bedtime examples focus on different subjects. Using the same reference style helps them belong together.

Can I use a different illustration style?

Yes. The prompts ask the AI to follow the attached reference’s appearance. Start with a finished artwork you like and use it consistently. The paper-cut examples show one possibility.

Which reference should I use for a name or word-art print?

An approved initial or another artwork with lettering is a useful choice. It gives the AI letter shapes and decorative details to follow alongside the palette and texture. The comparisons above show how this changed our results.

Do I need a photograph of the dog?

No extra dog photograph is needed for the pet prompt. It uses the approved child illustration and your editable description of the dog’s name, breed and coat colour.

Can I change the wording and favourite things?

Yes. Edit the personal details beside each prompt, then copy the complete updated prompt. Names, themes, favourite phrases and bedtime wording can all be changed. Check their spelling in the finished artwork before printing.

Can I have the pictures printed as a matching set?

Yes. Save the finished image files and upload them as canvas or poster prints. Choose formats and sizes that suit your wall, and use the existing 3 for 2 offer across eligible prints.
