Mask with shapes

• Select your photo for masking.

• Click ‘Shape’ in the lower right corner of the pop-up masking menu.
• Select a shape to use for masking. Select from a wide of shapes and clipart, including circle, oval, rectangles, arrows, speech bubbles and more.
• Place the shape on the photo and resize it by adjusting the shape’s dimensions using the corner bazels as per need.
• Invert masking using the ‘Invert’ option. This will mask the shape out of the image.
• Use the ‘Color pop’ option and make the color of the image within the selected shape pop out, leaving the remaining image with a cool, black, and white effect. You can couple this with the ‘Invert’ option to invert colors.

• Click Mask to confirm your selection. Otherwise, you can use the red Remove Mask button to remove the mask.
