I'm alive, I swear! Smh it's been like 8464748 centuries dudes I'm so sorry 😂 but I'm here once again and I'm back with a new tut, yayay lol. Even though I know it won't, I hope this chap makes up for my insanely long absence!

Okie dokie folks, first off let's start with adding a plain canvas into PicsArt with the correct dimensions!

Next, add your background/texture. This step depends on what type of icon you're making; wether it's horror or happy, fantasy, mystical, light, dark, whatever. I chose a dark and what I thought was unnerving one lol mainly because I've never done one before, oops. An early Halloween tutorial heyyyy 😂

Anywho, afterwards is when you want to add your celeb cutout. This is always the hardest decision to me y'all smh ngl 😒 I slapped Amanda Seyfried on this one because she's gorgeous and had great png's available... which I already had on my phone bc i was too lazy to search for more 👀

For this particular tutorial, I wanted to add a bit more color to her lips to kind of go along with the deep red of the texture I chose so I went into 'Draw' and colored her lips in with a dark crimson

Depending on what type of icon you're doing, you may want to follow suit. Then again, you may not!

Sooo next, go into 'Effects' and add your desired filters! This is one of my favorite things to do, adding the color, and I tend to go overboard with it sometimes 😂 so I probably wouldn't use my coloring technique if I were you fam lol ya feel?
