I love anything graphic design that has that vintage grunge kind of look. This tutorial will show you how to create a stunning vintage polaroid effect in Photoshop. It's fairly simple to make and can be used in many different types of projects.
This tutorial will be completed using mostly filters and fills, but we will need a couple of photos to complete the look. The first is the tractor image we'll fill in the polaroid with, if you have an image you'd like to substitute, by all means use that. Also you will need some grunge textures to complete the vintage photo effect.
