Author: Reiven More by this author


We always want to give presents to loved ones. These presents may be material or non-material. But Birthday Cards, Christmas Cards or Valentine's Cards that can be sent to friends and family are always popular. Now you can create your own Cards! To begin a card you will create an animated heart.

So, open Photoshop. Create a New Document, size 300x300 px. Then, choose Shape tool with the Shape Layers parameter, then choose Heart Shape. Set out the Foreground Color #FD7FA3. Now draw a heart that should take up most of the space in the window. Choose Shape1 and Background together. Select Move tool and center the heart in the window.
