It's Tuesday and that means it is time for another Techy Tip!! YAY!
When I first came across Picnik - and now PicMonkey - I fell in love!! I found it easier then messing around with Photoshop:)
However, with Photoshop I was able to start fresh if I wanted to. I knew there had to be a way I could do the same thing in PicMonkey and after playing around a bit, this is what I came up with. {This was especially important to me when I was making my blog headers - which I promise to post about soon!!}
Step 1: Open up PicMonkey and upload an image (it can be anything..we won't use it anyways).
Step 2: Select Overlays and then Geometric Shapes. Choose the rectangle.
Step 3: Choose the color that you would like for your background. I choose white so that I would have a nice clean, white blank page.
Step 4: Enlarge the rectangle so that it covers over the entire photo. You will no longer be able to see your uploaded picture.
Next, use the merge tool to merge (you guessed it) the white rectangle with your initial photo.
Step 5: Have fun with the PicMonkey features and fun stickers to create whatever you want!
Enjoy playing around:)
Note that this is probably just one of many ways to do this. If you found another way, I would love for you to share your solution in the comments:)
