Good job on the layer effects, but I don’t like the mat you made. It is proportional to the original image size, but not the same size matting all the way around. A better way to do this would be to simply put it on a new layer, then go to Canvas Size and increase the size of it the same amount. Want a 2″ border? Add 4″ to both the width and height. If you don’t click on any pf the arrows it will leave your layer in the center.
Pete if I place this back into lightroom and print from there .Will it print in any size and not loose any of the framing and text????
Thanks
