Turn any photo into a dot grid artwork with these Photoshop actions. You'll get great results with dots that change size. They get larger in brighter areas and smaller in darker areas. Free download available.
Step 18
For this photo everything remains the same. Repeat Steps 14 - 16, just before you start, create a new layer (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + N or use new layer icon on Layer panel). For the layer, which you paint texture, set Opacity: 70%. Adjustment layer "Curves" (Step 16), you can duplicate (Hold Option/Alt grab and drag adjustment layer and place it over desired layer). Do not forget make adjustment layer as Clipping Mask to layer which you apply a color for texture! Not for the frame!
Here is my result. You should also be. I decided that the frame with the original color will look better. This variety of color range and the whole picture. Old photos is ready. I liked the result and I decided to go further.
Step 19
Now, to make the picture more interesting and informative, added envelope. Go to File > Place (Place Embedded), select image "vintage_envelope_1_by_beinspyred-d2o001u" (Vintage Envelope). Use the Free Transform tool (Cmd/Ctrl + T or Edit > Free Transform) to resize the layer like shown in the image below. Layer with a envelope to be ahead of the layer with the wood texture (under all old photos).
Step 20
Add style "Drop Shadow" (Layer > Layer Style > Drop Shadow or use Style icon on a Layer Panel) to envelope like shown in the image.
Here's what you should get. So I do not interfere with layers of old photos, I unite them in one group "Cards". Select all layers except wood background and central frame and go to Layer > Group layers or use Cmd/Ctrl + G.
Step 21
We now turn to the most interesting part of this tutorial. Specifically the central picture. In this part of tutorial, you will learn how to make a realistic effect of live photo. To get started on the center frame is necessary to impose a texture from Step 15. On new layer, used color # 363636 draw spots. If necessary, remove excess. Make this layer as Clipping Mask (Option/Alt+ Cmd/Ctrl + G) and set Blending Mode "Overlay" and Opacity: 80%.
Step 22
Now add a background from which the model will go. Go to File > Place (Place Embedded), select image "Balcony_by_LateRose_Stock" (Balcony). Use the Free Transform tool (Ctrl/Cmd+T or Edit > Free Transform) to resize image like shown in the image below. Does not necessarily reduce size of all image to entire into frame. You need only a fragment. Place on frame fragment of photo, which you like more. I chose a piece that got there part of the sky, foliage, flowering tree and beautiful columns.
