I take no credit for this idea at all; Bree had messaged me awhile back and suggested me to make a tutorial on how she did it, so here it finally is! (like 2 months later lol)

Superimpose

i. Open up a woods background or any other type of background as the Background and then your PNG of the people/person as the foreground. Go to Filter>Contrast and turn that all of the way down. To make it white, just turn all of the colors up and boom, there you go. Merge and save.

ii. To get the transparent border I had done in the example above, just open the cover in Phonto and go to Add shapes and select the square. Mess around with the size and color/transparency and boom, there you go.

iii. If you'd like to add other PNG's in there as well, feel free too. Here's a bird one below, along with some other examples that other people have made. You do the same thing as you did to the people; turn the contrast down and turn the colors up. Just remember to merge and such. You could do birds, stars, a moon, balloons; literally anything guys.

That's all! I really do like this cover idea though; very unique and different

That's all! I really do like this cover idea though; very unique and different. Unfortunately, I don't know a way to do it on Pics Art because you can't turn the contrast and stuff down on there, but if someone figures it out another way, please comment and let others know. Thanks!
