📲 APPS USED:
Picsart
Phonto
Polarr

✍🏼 FONTS USED:
Vogue Regular

STEP ONE: BACKGROUND + BRUSHES
Open Picsart and choose any color background.
Crop it to your preferred Wattpad cover size (e.g., 512x800 or 1024x1600).
Go to Add Photo, select your main image, and position it as shown.
Tap Brushes, select the second sparkle brush, and brush the top half of your FC (around the shoulders and up).
Use the eraser tool to remove sparkles off their face & shoulders — make it soft and blended (eraser size ≤ 70 for a smooth effect).
Then move on to Stickers.

STEP TWO: STICKERS & EFFECTS
Add clouds + butterflies stickers (again, erase carefully around your FC so it looks layered and soft).
Add the iPhone camera sticker and crop/erase to only use the bottom lens area.
Go to Blend > Screen so it blends naturally.
Add a camera focus sticker and place it wherever fits — I placed mine around the eye for emphasis.
Tap Apply and Save your image.

STEP THREE: TEXT (PHONTO)
Open Phonto and type your title three times (stacked).
Align: Center, Size: 70. (will vary)
Tap Style:
Text Color: White
Stroke: Black | Width: 3
Shadow: Middle Grey | Style: Second-to-last 'Aa'
Tap Save when done.

STEP FOUR: FILTER/PSD
Open Polarr and apply your filter/PSD of choice.
Save your final version — and just like that...
✅ YOU'RE DONE!!
