Polaroids in Photoshop

I've looked around online, but haven't found a good, simple Polaroid frame for Photoshop. (I think it would be a frame). I found tutorials before, but I was hard for me to follow, since I was new to the program. So, since I learned how to use clipping masks, and how to make my own storyboard using them, I decided to make my own Polaroid frame.

The cool thing is, once I made it, I just saved the Photoshop file, and now I can easily turn any photo I want into a Polaroid in seconds.

Here's how it turned out:

I had a little fun adding text and shapes to this one. :D

Cupcakes and Textures

Yesterday I baked some muffins for my sisters to take to their Bible study, and I had to take some pictures of them! I used our photo box when taking the photos. The solid background works well for adding the texture.

Doesn't it look good?

I also took some photos of my mom's gluten-free chocolate cupcakes.

The textures I used are from rubyblossom. on flickr.
