1- SHARE A POST WITH A BACKGROUND IMAGE
If you already know this trick, don’t leave yet! I am about to share a couple of free background images that you can add to your Instagram story.
For those who had no idea. Welcome to the new cute way to share Instagram posts to your Instagram story.
Usually, when sharing your post or someone else’s post in your story. Instagram automatically adds a plain background to it.
But now, you are going to be able to change that!
Download one (or more) of my Instagram Story background for free and try it on your IG Story.
How to do it?:
Download the image on your photo Library.
Then, go on Instagram and share a post in your story.
Now, before doing anything else, go get the image you downloaded, and copy it.
Go back to your Instagram story and add it to your story as a sticker.

2- USE MULTIPLE FONTS
Instagram allows you to choose between different types of Font.
It can be a classic, modern, neon, typewriter, or strong.
So, use your creativity and start playing with different Fonts.
For example, write your text starting with classic and finish with one word using Neon.
As showing below.
If you want to explore and add more Fonts to your Instagram story.
Then, download the App called “Fonts”, and add it to your keyboard.
The Fonts App gives you access to more fonts to play with!
So, have fun!

3- INSTAGRAM STORY STICKERS AKA GIFS
GIFs are my favorites thing to use to give some life to my story!
You can take a picture of your coffee, writing a text (with different Fonts), and add a cute mug that moves beside it.
Go on your Instagram Story.
Tap on the sticker Icon, select Gif and start adding some amazing stickers.
I have a little secret about Instagram story stickers, and I wanted to share it with you.
Tons of amazing Gifs are made by talented creators.
You cannot find the creation unless you know the name of the artist.
Therefore, I have created a Pinterest board. Where you can find unique and beautiful Instagram Story stickers.
How to use them:
Go on my Pinterest board: Instagram story sticker
Find the stickers you like.
Then, look up at the name of the creator. Go on your Instagram story and GIF, write the name of the artist to find the stickers!
4- DRAW ON YOUR PICTURE TO ADD SOME COOL EFFECTS
There are so many possibilities to make your Instagram story look amazing thanks to the draw tool.
So, think about it! What if you could highlight your text or even yourself?
Why don’t you use different brushes to add some colors and overlays?
One of the most common things to do is to draw a shape over yourself. Then, use the eraser to make a cool effect like showing below.
