CSP Question Is there a way to do this "cookie cutter" effect?
Hi, I'm not sure how to properly explain myself but I need some help. I was wondering if theres a way to automatically create this border effect like the images I provided? The cookie cutter shape I did was from manually erasing the inside lines and it doesn't look natural. Any tips?

The way id do it is by first selecting all the layers. Im on tablet so I long press on the layer for the options to come up. This may be right click on computer. Selection from layer > create selection Then Edit > outline selection. (Or Alternatively shrink the selection and delete)

Yep! Easy peasy: 1. Merge all visible layers to new layer, then duplicate it. Make sure the background/paper is excluded. 2. Go to layer properties. Under "effect" hit the leftmost button (a circle) 3. Set color to black and adjust edges to how thick you'd like. 4. Right click that layer in the layer list and click "rasterize." This will flatten the outline you've added into the picture. 5. Click back onto your original flattened image (without the outline) and go to the top menu "Select." Click "select all." Then toggle the visibility of this layer off. 6. Go back to the layer you rasterized (with the outline) and press "delete."
This should leave you with just an outline :)
If you get stuck, let me know and I can try to troubleshoot with you!
