STROKE OUTLINE—Please Read!

At the end of the video I show the final image and mention that I added two more items: the stroke outline and the dog sticker but I don’t demonstrate how I added them, so this has caused some confusion.

Both the dog sticker and the stroke outline are in the practice folder for 06 Type Tool Titles. The dog is easy to see but the stroke is so thin that you can easily miss it. It’s the last element in the folder and is called “stroke-7x5-orange.png.”

Here’s how to use the stroke file in your project folder:

• With your project document active, in the Layers panel click on the “me-and-my-dog" image layer to make it the active layer.

• In the Menu bar choose File > Open.

• Navigate to the 06 Type Tool Titles project folder, and double click on the file called “stroke-7x5-orange.png.”

• Get the Move tool. In Tool Options uncheck Auto Select Layer. (This is because the stroke is so thin it’s hard to land on it to click and drag.)

• Click and drag the stroke onto your project file. Press Shift as you let go of the mouse to center it on the image.
