Step 1: Add a rectangle to your photo<\/h3>\n

Begin by activating the Rectangle tool<\/strong> in the toolbar. In the options at the top, set the Fill<\/strong> to a solid color (it doesn’t matter which color you use, as it won’t be visible in your final image), and make sure that the Stroke<\/strong> is set to No Color<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Then, draw a rectangle over your image.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Step 2: Create the rounded corners<\/h3>\n

Next, hover over the small circle near one of the corners, and drag it toward the center of the rectangle. This creates the rounded corner effect on all four corners.<\/p>\n

Tip: To only adjust one corner at a time, press and hold the OPT (Mac) or ALT (Win) key<\/mark> as you click and drag the corner.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>

Step 3: Clip the photo to the rectangle<\/h3>\n

Now it’s time to add the photo to the rectangle. Begin in the Layers panel; if your image layer is locked, click the lock icon<\/strong> to unlock it. Then, drag the image layer so that it is above the rectangle.<\/p>\n

Then, hover in-between the two layers while pressing the Opt (Mac) or Alt (Win) key<\/mark><\/strong>. When the icon changes, click and it will clip the photo to the rectangle.<\/p>\n<\/div>
