A Coffee postage stamp In 2002 a postage stamp dedicated to coffee was issued in Brasil. It had an inscription "Brasil coffee" and showed coffee beans and a coffee cup. Besides, the postage stamp had a delicate aroma of freshly roasted coffee beans. The stamp was disigned by local artist Vera Pilotto da Silva.
Now we will try to create a similar design with AKVIS Chameleon, though without the coffee aroma. Below we have two images: a coffee cup and coffee beans.
First of all, you should select the cup of coffee with any selection tool.
Learn more about selection tools of Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, Corel (Jasc) Paint Shop Pro, Corel Photo-Paint.
The easiest way to select it in Adobe Photoshop is to use Quick Mask mode. Do not forget to select the shadow of the cup as well.
Having selected the cup of coffee, call AKVIS -> Chameleon – Grab Fragment from the Filter menu. If everything is done correctly you’ll see a message that the selected object is saved into the clipboard.
Open the photo of the coffee beans and call AKVIS -> Chameleon – Make Collage from the Filter menu. The AKVIS Chameleon window will open. This window will contain the coffee bean background and the fragment (cup).
Select Chameleon mode from the drop-down menu in the Settings Panel.
Use the Transform tool  in the plugin to adjust the size and position of the cup.
Press the button  to start the collage creation process. A preview of the image will appear in the After tab.
Tnen the result, press the button  to apply the collage to the photo.
And here is the result:
