This weeks Friday Freebie is a weave effect image that adds a amazing 3D pattern to your photos, as you can see here.

The weave template is a simple JPG image. I’ve made it in a square shape but it’s also very large at 5000 pixels on each side, so it’s easily adapted to both portrait and ladscape format images… as well as square ones of course 🙂
Once you’ve downloaded the template all you need to do is paste it over your image and resize it with Free Transform (CTRL+T) if required. Change the layer blending mode from Normal to Overlay and you’ll achieve a result like this. Howver this template works with loads of blending modes and I urge you to experiment, you’ll be amazed just how many variations there are!
If you create a photo using the Friday Freebie then let me (and everyone else) know by leaving the link in the comments below.

Hi Elena,
I love the work you have done on the flower and the selective masking work, I looks like the flower is hanging out of the photo.. great choice of photo for this weave template!
Hi Gavin, i love this weave effect. Great work.. greeting from Indonesia. I wish someday i get the chance to meet you. Huge fan of you 🙂
Thanks for the “weave”. I applied it to a photo of a clipper ship on the ocean. Awesome. Thanks again for sharing.
I would like to register two thank you’s. The first being for the Weave Template and I must say that it is everything I expected and comes-up with amazing effects. The second thank you is to the people at Gavtrain for their friendly assistance. Well Done in quality and customer service. Thank you for sharing this with us.
