Step 14: Now let’s add more
doodles. Press-and-hold the Shift
key, and tap U until you have
the Custom Shape tool (circled)
in the Toolbar. In the Options
Bar, set the left-hand drop-
down menu to Shape and set
the Fill color to white. Click the
Custom Shape picker (also cir-
cled) and then c lick the shape
you want to use.
If your only options are Leaf
Trees, Wild Animals, Boats,
and Flowers, you need to load
more. To do that, choose Win-
dow>Shapes to open the Shapes
panel, and from its flyout menu
(circled), choose Legacy Shapes
and More. Back in the Cus-
tom Shape Picker, expand Leg-
acy Shapes and More, and
then expand All Legacy Default
Shapes. Scroll through the cate-
gories and expand Objects. Click
the shape named Lightbulb 2.
Tip: To expand all the cate-
gories at once, Command-c lick
(PC: Ctrl-c lick) one of them.

Step 15: Mouse over to the
image and Shift-drag to draw the
shape; don’t worry about the size
because you can change it later.
When you release your mouse
button, Photoshop adds a shape
layer. Drag this layer to the top of
your layer stack (circled).

Step 16: In the Options Bar,
reopen the Custom Shape Picker,
go back to the Objects folder in
the All Legacy Default Shapes
folder, and pick one of the
crowns. Start drawing the crown
near her head and then add the
Shift key to maintain proportions
(if you hold the Shift key before
you start drawing, the crown will
be added to the light bulb layer).
