Page Curl Tutorial

29 Jul

Creating a page curl in photoshop is fairly novice but is useful all the same. Hope you learn something from this and yes there will be more tutorials coming. My assistant today is the lovely Mila Kunis

Step 1

Select the selection tool. Make sure its the rectange selection tool and select the corner you want you curl. I will be curling the bottom right.

I gave it sort of a distorted curl for effect but a 45 degree curl would look good also
