    Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I love edge effects on photos and have quite a library of them. This is a great way to be more creative and have fun using all those filters. Can’t wait to try the technique!

    Hi, I did this effect with lots of luck. Today I am trying it again and it will not allow me to click on the add layer mask. It show a circle with a line, like no smoking !!
    I can click on the add new layer and the adj layer buttons. I followed the directions like last time, but no luck with the mask!!!!!!
