Photoshop: Border around complex transparent image
Question
could someone give me a hint how I could draw a border around a transparent image of a tree without too much effort? I tried creating a duplicate layer and resizing it before merging both layers but due to the image's complex edges, this didn't provide the desired result.
Thanks in advance.
Accepted Answer
One quick way to create a border around a cut object (a tree in your case) is to right click on the layer > select Blending Options > Stroke.
[You can also access Blending Options from the Layer tab > Layer Style > Blending options]
The Stroke menu will look something like this:
You can adjust the size, position, blend mode, opacity and color of the stroke along with changing the Fill Type from color to pattern or gradient.
