Photo borders are an excellent method to add a touch of refinement and beauty to a photograph. And creating a border is simple if you know how. To begin, we will use Photoshop’s Canvas Size command to create extra space around the picture.
Step 1:
Extend the zoom to create space for the border. To zoom out from your keyboard, hold down the Ctrl key on a Windows PC or the Command key on a Mac while pressing the minus key. This allows us to see the boundary more clearly:
Step 2:
Unlock the Background layer so that we may put additional layers underneath it.
Step 3:
To increase the amount of canvas space surrounding the picture, go to the Image option in the Menu Bar and choose Canvas Size.
Step 4:
In the Canvas Size dialogue box, make sure the Relative checkbox is selected.
Step 5:
To colourize the border, we will utilise one of Photoshop’s Solid Colour fill layers. Click the New Fill or Adjustment Layer icon at the bottom of the Layers panel:
Step 6:
In the Colour Picker, choose the colour for your border. When you are finished, click OK to exit the Colour Picker. In addition, Photoshop momentarily covers the whole page with white, obscuring the picture.
Step 7:
Move the fill layer underneath the picture.
