Blending Two Images together using a Layer Mask

By Wendy Williams  ·  May 12th, 2006

[Editors Note: this tutorial requires a layer mask add-on for Elements, such as Grants Tools; check the comments below the article for an alternative method using adjustment layer masks.]

1. Open your first image and add some canvas to it Image>Canvas size   try maybe doubling the width or a bit less and click relative. That means you just need to add the extra width. Then anchor it to the right hand side

Blend A

2. Now create a new layer above that and add your second image but make sure that they have a reasonable overlap

3. Then add a mask to the top layer (Use Mask Layers from Grants Tools) and your layers palette will now look like this.

Blend B

4. Next reset your foreground colour to Black. Select the gradient tool, Linear Gradient, Foreground to Transparent and draw the gradient tool across your image like this.

Blend C

5. Use the red line as a guide to where to start and finish. You may need to try it a few times to get the right effect but it should give you something like this

Blend D

6. Your layers should look like this.

Blend E
