Superimpose

i. Get you a nice little handy-dandy piece of paper out and a marker. I recommend to use a thicker one, because that will make the editing part of it a whole lot easier. Draw your little title or whatever and then take a photo of it. (oh, and I included my whale and cockatoo because I forgot I had them sitting there on my desk, lmao. I painted those mother truckers)

ii. Upload your photo as the foreground and a white background. Use the magic brush under the mask tab to erase the areas outside of the writing. Make sure to get inside of the O's and other letters that have an enclosed center!

iii. Go to the filter tab and turn the contrast all of the way down. Then, after that, you can use the color adjustments to change the color and other goodies. When you're done, you can either save the image or just save it as a PNG. If you save it normally, when you go to put it on something, just use the magic brush to erase the white around it like you did before. It's really easy.

Comments

If you're wondering why I wrote "David is a rat", that's because boy wonders is in fact a rat and has now been exposed to his true form (and I didn't know what else to write lmao)

I thought that this was a cute little idea to do for drawings that you guys made that you wanted to make covers or to personalize your titles and other stuff you have. Personally, I'd do more of this if I had good handwriting *sigh* but hey, at least I could draw that nice little koi fish up there miraculously.

and yes, I am 16 and have a whale and cockatoo sitting in my room.
