I Want to Make Heart Cloud Editing Look Natural ♡

Seeing heart clouds makes me feel happy ♡ When I was in elementary and middle school, there was a superstition that if you set a heart cloud as your wallpaper, your love would come true…

You can easily synthesize heart clouds using apps like SNOW or sky editing apps, but

when processed with apps, they tend to look a bit fake, and the heart shape has a "heart!!" feel that makes it look unnatural, right?

So in this article, I will introduce how to edit heart clouds to make them look natural ♡

Using just two apps on your smartphone, it’s not that difficult once you get the hang of it, so give it a try＊

<How to Edit Heart Clouds>

① Open the image you want to edit in PicsArt and press "Add Photo" to add the cloud photo.

② After adding the cloud image, press "Blend" and then "Overlay (Light)". The opacity is initially set to 100%, but if you set it to around 80%, the cloud will become lighter, increasing the natural feel＊

Adjust the size and angle and save it.

Since the square of the cloud image stands out, we will remove it in the next step.

③ Open the saved photo in Snapseed and press "Tools" and then "Healing".

④ The healing function erases parts of the image that you trace over. You can trace the square frame to eliminate it from view.

Here is the completed image!

What do you think…?

Don’t you feel there’s not that much of a fake impression??
