OLW: Lynn's Tips &Techniques #5:

I wasn't quite sure what kind of technique to do this week so I picked kind of an easy one.... well at least easy when you know how to do it! When I first saw these frames I knew that I had to have them! Love them and I have used them over and over...and they are only $4.00! You can print them out as is on transparency and use them as overlays or you can do the technique that I am going to show you today, they are lots of fun!

start by opening up your photoshop program, then open up your picture

Next open up one of your frames.... you will need to have both images on your screen. Like the picture below.

Now using your move tool....which for me is in my top right corner in my tools. (over on the far left side of the picture above) using your move tool double click on the frame and then drag it over top of your picture... if your frame is not the right size, you will have something that looks like the picture below.

now make this picture the only thing that is on your screen by maximizing it. To make your frame the right size you have to just click control "T" on your keyboard. This will give you a box around your frame that you can click on all sides and drag it to the right size...

Now i want to click on layers and then flatten image... thi will make your image one. I decided to add his name to the bottom right side of the picture. Click on the "T" in your tools. click on the spot on the picture where you would like to start writing. I wrote his name "KADE" sme as before if it isn't the right size or in the right spot, just click control"T" and you will get a box round your word. By dragging the box around at different corners you can make it bigger or smaller.
