How to recolor my wedding frames

This is a super easy tut to show you how to change the color of my wedding frames to make your own customized wedding monogram. You will need:
To make these monograms, I will use my latest frame set, please find it here in my Etsy store.



Open the folder where you have the frames, choose the frame you like from the provided PNG files (do not open the JPEG files, those are only for embroidery).
Once opened, go LAYER/LAYER STYLE/COLOR OVERLAY

Or just double click on the frame layer (the area that is highlighted in blue in the picture below)

The layer style dialog will open (shown below). This dialog will allow you to recolor the graphic by adding a color overlay.
  • First, make sure the blend mode is set to normal, and the opacity is set to 100 %
  • Click on the color box (where it says Set color Overlay, picture below), this will open the color picker.
  • Click on the desired color within the color picker and click OK close the color picker.
  • Click OK again, this time in the layer style dialog shown below  to apply the changes and close the dialog box.
Now you can continue adding your text and background color as usual. 
This is how you change the color those black frames, remember you always need to use the PNG file, this will not work with the JPEG file.
Thank you!
