Simple Cover tutorial + Font Recommendations
by: kai-reh

Hello everyone!
In this chapter, I'm going to show you how I made this plain and simple cover.

STEP 1: PICSART

Open Picsart then choose the original wattpad cover template.

Tap "draw"

After clicking draw, open the icon with the shapes.

Select the square shape then fill.
Tap the check button when done.

Open the brush icon (next to the eraser one)
Pick a color (mine is pastel yellow)
Tap the check button again when done.

Resize the square to this size.
Repeat the exact process to have this outcome.

To add the border,
simply tap the icon with the name "border" in home.

Follow the next picture.

OUTER - 0
INNER - 19
OPACITY - 47

Save the cover with the border.
Close PICSART.

STEP 2: PHONTO

Open the app "Phonto"
Tap the camera button, then select the cover.

FIRST, I used the font "The Bold Font" for the title
which is BUZZY'S COVER CONTESTS.

You can download the font in dafont.com.

To add the broken lines,
simply "add text" then do this.

The broken lines are actually underscores.
Click "done"

Add shadows to the broken lines.

Simply copy the settings above ^

After adding the broken lines, it should look like this.

To add the anime girl,
I got the render from DEVIANTART.

(if you save the owner's renders, please give credits to them.)

Select add image.
Add the render to the cover and it should look like this.

I also added "hosted by buzzybee36" in the cover.
The font I used is Happy Camper.

STEP 3: PIXLR

Open Pixlr,
select the picture above.

Click the icon with the two circles and tap double exposure.
I used this image to add the shining effects for the cover.

Adjust the image then play with the effects and this is the outcome.

It's DONE!
I hope you enjoy my little tutorial.
