Playing with overlays - Instagram

18 May 2013

Okay well to start here's some I've already done :-) 
(All my own photos)









HOW? 
To create your overlay first you will need a picture! You can do ANYTHING including selfies to flowers ,ootd pics to pets and food! 
Once you have your picture you are going to need to find a overlay I found mine if tumblr by searching the tags ,most people say google have a lot but I personally couldn't find any! 
So to save you time here's some I found 






I have a lot more but I didn't want to clog up this post too much so if I've missed one you want please just ask in the comments :-) 

Okay so if you google how to do this it's says that you have to buy a certain app to do this but you dont!!
You can use most editing tools available on iPhones which are free! 
I use picsart which is an amazing app and is free. I really do love this app as you can do so many things on it .
I always find picture instructions easier to follow than word so here's how I did it picture style 



1. First you open your picture up in picsart 
2.go to mask and add photo 
3.choose your overlay that you have saved in your pictures 
4. Now you can edit the overlay if you want. I've just increased the size by pulling with my two fingers on the little dots.
5.where it says normal change it to lighten or overlay whichever look best (this is different for different pictures) 
6. Follow me on Instagram ;-) 


Hoped this helped!
