2. Add a Thumbnail Image: Select an image that will be the product thumbnail. This image should be prepared beforehand.

Step 3: Configure the Product Variant

1. Add the Variant Code and Title: Enter a code for the variant and a title. In this example, we will use “child” because the design theme will be for children.
2. Set the Price and Number of Components: Define the price and the number of components. For a single-sided bookmark, set the minimum and maximum number of pages to one.
3. Specify the Dimensions: Mark the dimensions of the bookmark, for example, 55 x 210 mm.

Step 4: Create the Product

1. Click the Create button and add an image that you want to appear as the background in the editor. Verify that the dimensions are correct and accept.

Step 5: Configure the Printable Artwork

1. Layer System: Access the printable artwork and use the layer system.
2. Background Image Layer: Add a background image layer. Select a previously prepared background, in this case, a children’s theme.
3. Collage Layer: Add a collage layer so the user can add their own images. Allow the user to upload three images with a 5 mm separation between them and 10 mm top margins.
4. Free Content Layer: Add a top layer for free content so the user can add their own text anywhere on the bookmark.

Step 6: Preview and Finalization

1. Review the preview to ensure the design looks as expected.
2. Offer the option of another design with the same theme, allowing the user to follow the same steps.
3. Save the design and the product will be finalized.
