This tutorial has been an absolute game changer for me, I was stuck not knowing how to create this effect for some projects I was working on until I found this video. I've watched this a number of times, easy to follow and packed full of useful tips and tricks. Made a massive difference with how I use Photoshop! Thanks so much
Really great video ! One of the best tutorial I have ever seen. You're not missing anything, every action, every shortcut, every pannel or effect are explained. I really enjoyed it. Thanks.
While I’m not a Photoshop person, this has given me mad inspirational ideas to try out in Affinity Photo! I’ve been watching a lot of your tut’s on both Photoshop as well as Premiere pro and appreciate the level of in-depth that you go into!
8:15- instead, use the quick mask tool to select the bits of flower then paint on the layer mask outside of the flower selection. much quicker and cleaner then manually painting in a mask.
That selection of layers, then ctrl+alt+e, (around 33:00) was a great tip! I've used ctrl+shift+alt+e (stamp visible) many times, but his was subtly different and very useful, and worked really well for the high pass filter. The grain effect worked nicely as well.
I've been somewhat haphazard in my use of layer masks, but the way you shown using them here has given me great ideas in how they can work for me a lot better. Gotta get that workflow. Thanks!
This is so awesome!! You are certainly the best photoshop teacher. I really like your tutorials because you come every time with something original and cool.
you're awesome man!!! I just love the way you teach, and the way you speak.. One with moderate command on Ps ,never gets bored to watch your full tutorial. Otherwise I really get bored to watch a lengthy videos of others! but never in yours👍😃
I'm a designer myself, always looking to learn more to improve my skills. Watched this entirely for fun and definitely picked up a lot of good techniques. I'm subscribing for sure. Also: I saw 6 people gave it a thumbs down...I wish they could state their reasoning behind that lol. Great work.
Hit the 3-dot symbol to open up the toolbar menu - then click "done" while holding down shift+ctrl. I love that they added it! xD (to undo it, just hit "done" regularly, iirc - I'll probably keep it forever, though.)
Hey! thank you for sharing your skills. You have helped me a lot and I have used your teachings in my daily designs and it has helped. I pray your business will grow and you will prosper more and more. Thank you
Oh man, thanks so much for the great tutorial. Struggled with the shadows when i tried this effect a couple of weeks ago and could not figure out the right way until this nice little peace of tut came by! Exactly what i needed to finish this!
Could you explain how you got those floral brushes to look like that? Mine just turns out looking like a grainy semi-transparent mess. And somehow your brush paints in different shades of the selected color???
Hi ! Is there anyway you could show how did you make the selection of the flowers ? I'm learning all this stuff on my own and its kinda difficult to learn to do that. Your videos are surely helping me a lot to learn. Would be glad if you could help.
Ive found that if you ctrl+click on the layer you can emidiately select the flowers so you don't need to do the two step proces of getting the flowers pop over de border, just ctrl+click and adjust the layer mask like you want it
I love the video and i love how very detailed it is but I'm having trouble with the first one I'm afraid. I can't seem to do it, the color range thingy. And when I tried to erase the border line with the brush tool, it wouldn't erase the color just lightens. You see I'm new to all this. Could you explain it for me?

A little fast for my taste, but being on youtube i can't complain. It's really immersive and very detailed, and the visible commands you press that show up on screen are the best. Keep em coming, i'll probably get the photoshop pack once i get the hang of the programme a little more.
just a small thing. I'm not sure if its better of not but when you created the shadows for the flowers with a paint brush. you could just use drop shadow effect and then make it an actual layer (forgot the name of thus effect, pretty sure "create global layers") and then just delete the places that you don't want to have shadows on. not sure if its a good idea though, can you tell me?
Or you could just created a new layer for flower shadows on the frame and clip it to the frame layer, seems to do job a lot easier! Thank you for inspirational tutorials, always great videos!
Great video. Really liked the idea behind this image. Just wanted to ask about the part around 8:38. Can i make selections with pen tool and brush it for perfection? As I don't have any graphics tablet
Nice tuts! Many can use the techniques you've just put in this video. You could've opt to use "create clipping mask" to hide excess shadow you have drawn. Correct me if I'm wrong. Just want to make the process quicker and a lot easier. Thanks!
Thank you for all the great tutorials. Just a thought, it might have been faster to use the quick select or other selection tools on the flowers when creating your layer masks. You could also have adjusted the selections with select>adjust>feather or filter>blur to soften edges.
These are the kinds of tutorials I like! I love this kind of design
Thanks a million! 👍

Amazing and Excellent effect ''tutvid'' thank you for sharing. I like this effect.

Back to layer settings
-Set fill opacity to 0
Note: FILL Opacity vs Regular Opacity
Fill Opacity allows you to hide the contents of the layer, but the layer style will still be there. Regular opacity would make everything dissapear.
* Shadow for Flowers
Just Copy layer style --> Paste Layer Style
But we must adjust the fill opacity back to normal
Shadow for Flowers That are in front of the border
Tips:
* We hand Paint these because drop shadow would be applied everywhere
* *Paint as though the Text isn't there. Completeness
Step A: Painting in shadows On top of the Border(makes sense later)

* Set opacity to about 20%
* Paint in where you think the shadows should go or work

Tips:
* The shadows are in front at first but we need to do is blur it
Settings:
* Fliter --> Blur --> Gausean Blur
* Settings: 20-30 Pixels or so
Step C: Putting Shadows Behind the border
Tips:
* Bit Confusing but what we do here is
* Painting in white on a Layer mask
Settings:
* Add Layer Mask to Shadow layer we just made
* Load mask for orginal border layer (not sure how)
* Select ---> Inverse selection
* Paint with white brush on opacity 100%. Paint out shadows hanging out ahead of your border.
* Still Messy because we used outer stroke and there are stuff outside
Step D: Cleaning up
Explaination:
* Basically we are trying to first get the selection we want in a crafty way
* We want to select everything except the border
*
Duplicate border once more
Delete associated Mask layer again
Rasterize layer
Drag new border layer on top
Load a selection of your Exact Border [Cntrl click border]
Select everything except border by using Cntrl shift I (inverse selection)
Go to flower shadows layer

MarK HD, Thank you so much! 🍻
Great Vid, I wish you had step by step for beginners
I need to start writing out all of the tutorials in my website again.
Where can I find similar pictures？and hope to recommend a few websites

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
This is awesome!
Thanks for a great video! Learned a ton!
Nice

Very nice tutorial man!
I love this! This will help me a ton with my design portfolio this year :)

Thanks for the kind words and critique! I'm working on the speed issue, but glad you enjoyed the video 🍻
Love this tutorial, could even apply this to fashion posters as well
Awesome tutorial! I can't wait to give this a try
Love it. Thanks so much! 👍
This is awesome, Thank you for this tutorial. I also bookmarked this site.
Great tutorial!
Thank you! 👌

not sure if its a good idea though, can you tell me?
That's an interesting idea. I'll have to give that a shot. I think you're referring to the "Create Layers" command.
tutvid yea, I'm pretty sure
Same hahahahaha
Or you could just created a new layer for flower shadows on the frame and clip it to the frame layer, seems to do job a lot easier! Thank you for inspirational tutorials, always great videos!
It really depends on what you're working on. But it can look really good and save a buttload of time. So I always try it once.
Nice tutorial but how tp downoad floral bouquet?
Great video. Really liked the idea behind this image. Just wanted to ask about the part around 8:38. Can i make selections with pen tool and brush it for perfection? As I don't have any graphics tablet
Awesome! Thank you!! 😎
Thank you! 👌
Thanks for the video!
I use instead of the direct selection tool or the brush (to paint the areas you erase), the pen, is much smoother and accurate!
Nice tuts! Many can use the techniques you've just put in this video.
You could've opt to use "create clipping mask" to hide excess shadow you have drawn. Correct me if I'm wrong. Just want to make the process quicker and a lot easier. Thanks!
so pretty! i love it!
hey tutvid.. .pls make a video on collage making on Photoshop of any kind. of event or wedding.. .
Hi¡¡ Loved the video, but I'm having trouble with coloring back the frame. The brush erases but when I switch to white, it does nothing. HELP
this is so helpful! I always wanted to know how to make these kind of stuff!
Cool typography
Thank you!

Extremely cool. Thank you!

havent got the same font.. could you suggest any similar please?
Use any large, bold, sans serif font.
tutvid thanks ! Thanks for this wonderful tutorial :)
Thank you for all the great tutorials.
Just a thought, it might have been faster to use the quick select or other selection tools on the flowers when creating your layer masks. You could also have adjusted the selections with select>adjust>feather or filter>blur to soften edges.
