How to make a cut out!
I’m hosting the weekly challenge this week over at Mousescrappers and i’m asking for a cut out so I thought let’s make a tutorial for that ( It's for ps, if anyone has questions about another program please ask here and maybe someone can help you!)!
I Love this technique so much!!! It gives that little extra to your layout so that it becomes absolutly amazing! I splitted the tutorial in to three parts: Cut out elements, cut out with the marquee tool and cut out with shapes. Elements: (This methode also works great with text!) Place your papers and the element that you want to cut out in a new file. Ctrl+click on the tumbnail of the element to select it: http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/.../Element-1.jpg Select the top paper and click delete: http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/.../Element-2.jpg Deselect, delete the element (if you don’t want to use it anymore) and add shadow: http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/.../Element-3.jpg Marquee tool: Place two papers in a new file. Select the Marquee tool you wish to use, make the selection on the top paper and press delete: http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...election-1.jpg Deselect and add shadows: http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...election-2.jpg Shapes: Place two papers in a new file and select the shape tool of your choice: http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...ape-tool-1.jpg Place the shape (the same way as a selection) and go to the tab paths: http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...ape-tool-2.jpg Right click on Shape 1 vector mask, then click on “make a selection”: http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...ape-tool-3.jpg Click on OK: http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...ape-tool-4.jpg Return to the tab layers, select the top paper and click the delete button: http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...ape-tool-5.jpg Deselect , delete the shape and add shadows. http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...e-tool-6-1.jpg To make it clear I made the cut out in the tutorial first. Sometimes it’s better to make your page first and then make the cut outs. If there’s anything that’s not clear or if you have questions please let me know!!! Have fun and experiment away!!!! Hope to see you at the weekly challenge!!!! |
Thanks for a great tutorial. I've wondered how to do that!!
|
ooo, thanks!!
|
Thanks Patty....:)
|
This is awesome Patty, Thank you for posting this!:woohoo::surf:
|
Can anyone tell me if this can be done in SBC plus?
|
I really don't know that. All I know is that what the important thing in ps is, is selecting, with the marching ants. Once you've done that, I think you can go to the layer beneath (the paper layer) and hit the delete button. Maybe this will work?

Next you can click on the eye (in front of the tumbnail) of the element to hide it, so that you can see if it worked. Please let me now if it worked! |
