[Only do step one if you haven’t loaded the shapes onto photoshop if you already have, go straight on to step 2]
1. go edit > present manager.. > customer shapes [pic] > load > all [pic] > load
2. then open your image into photoshop file > open > select image > open
3. Go over to your layers window & double click on where it says ''background'' Then click ''ok'' on the new window that pops up.
4. right click the rectangle tool and then select the custom shape tool [pic]
5. click the arrow to reveal all the custom photoshop shapes. [pic]
8. scroll through all your custom shapes and select one of the puzzle shapes [pic]
7. once you’ve selected a puzzle shape draw over the part of your image you want in the puzzle piece [pic]
8. your layers window will look something like this [pic] Double click on where it says ‘background’ and press ok.
9. next you need to add a layer mask to your shape layer. At the bottom on the layers window there is a rectangle with a square in it, click that, making sure you are on the shape layer. [pic]
10. hold down ctrl and hover over the new rectangle with a white puzzle piece in it, in the layers window. [pic] a square with a dotted border should appear over your mouse curser. Once this appears just press the rectangle still holding down ctrl Your puzzle piece should now have a moving dashed border. [pic]
11. then click onto your picture layer in the layers window, should be called layer 0. Then go select > inverse. And press delete on your keyboard. All that should remain is your colour puzzle shape. [pic]
