The texture\u00a0is actually\u00a0the inside leaf of a very old and rather battered book that Sam picked up at a boot sale. All the blank pages have this amazing textured appearance and I&#8217;ll be sharing more of them as Friday freebies soon.<\/p>\n<p>Full download instructions are below but you can also<br \/>\n<strong>Click Here To <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/0B_Mmmm3K1utNaTlfSUdvSjB1b0U\/view?usp=sharing\">Download the vintage border &amp; texture<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As with all textures it works best with photos that have large areas of bright tones such as this one which has loads of bright sky. All you need to do is paste the texture above your photo and set the blending mode. There are loads of different layer blending modes and they&#8217;ll all give a different look but I&#8217;d suggest Multiply as the best mode to try first.<\/p>\n<p>This is a fairly dark texture and the Multiply blending mode will also\u00a0make the\u00a0image less bright. Once you&#8217;ve added the texture I&#8217;d suggest adding a Levels\u00a0adjustment layer to either your photo or at the top of the layer stack and moving the middle levels slider to adjust the overall brightness&#8230; if required.<\/p>\n<p>If you create a photo using the Friday Freebie then let me (and everyone else) know by leaving the link in the comments below.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Usage rules<\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong>The image is copyright Gavin Hoey 2013.
