Make This Wood Veneer Element

For this tutorial I used these templates

• Frame Shape 20
• Wood Texture
• You can also find good wood textures here.

I'll start with the frame shape open in Photoshop. Using the paint bucket I'm going to make it brown. You can use any color you'd like.

Now I'm going to bring in the wood texture on top of the frame shape. And using a clipping mask I'll clip it to the shape.

Change the blending mode of the texture. In this case I'm going to use "Multiply," but depending on the texture you may want to use "overlay" or some combination of both.

The last step is to add a bevel to the frame. There are lots of ways to adjust this to change the final look. Here are the settings I've used for this frame.

All done!
