Tutoriel: AKVIS LightShop

Snowy firework (greetings card)

The author of this example is Régine Lemasle. She created such a wonderful New Year card using AKVIS LightShop and AKVIS Frame Suite.

This example has been created in Adobe Photoshop.

• Step 1. Open your image.
  
• Step 2. Firstly we have to decorate our image using AKVIS LightShop plugin. Call the plugin (Filters -> AKVIS -> Lightshop). Choose one of the presets, for example Sample03 and change settings as you like. Press the button . The result will be shown in the Image window.
  

  Press the button to apply the result and close the plugin window.

   

• Step 3. Call AKVIS LightShop again and choose another preset (Sample 02). Set the parameters and press the button .
  
Press the button to apply the result and close the plugin window.
• Step 4. Repeat the Step 3 or 4 several times. So then you'll get a image with the snowy firework:
  
• Step 5. Now let's create an unusual photo frame. Call AKVIS Frame Suite (Filters -> AKVIS -> Frame Suite). Select a Ragged frame by going to the drop down menu.
  
• Step 6. Set the values of the parameters as shown below.
  

  and press the button . The result will be shown in the After tab.

  Press the button to apply the result and close the plugin window.

  
• Step 7. Now we have to make our frame more "interesting". So select this frame using the Magic Wand tool,
  

  and then use one of the standard Photoshop filter (Filters -> Render -> Clouds).

• Step 8. Add the greetings.
