In this tutorial we’ll be designing a Fashion magazine cover using Photoshop. We’ll use an image of my good friend, and fashion blogger Cheryl Van Den Berg.
We’ll use the help of a free plugin called GuideGuide to help us easily set up our document’s guides in order to have a visual representation of the bleed areas, and print safe areas, as well as a grid to place the Magazine blurbs and headlines. I’ll also show you some nifty techniques to take your magazine cover to the next level!
If you’re into fashion or want to thank Cheryl for letting us use her image, go to her blog Oh To Be A Muse. Or you can check out her Facebook page and let her know you found her through PTC!

Hi PTC,
Thank you for this awesome tutorial!! I have always wanted to do something like this. But haven’t got a chance to do it yet. I was wondering if by the way do you do any cheat sheet so I can go step by step. I am no hearing person but can follow the instruction, the problem is I have to stop each setting to get what it has to go through. If you do happen to have the readable instruction and can you please email me so I can keep this as my information. I beleive one of my club with would like for me to do something with the cover page.
That will impress them of how the cover will make for our “Deaf Club”. After I create the cover and will let ya know. That amaze me after I found this from the facebook. I enjoy everything you do.
Thanks for the comment C.Diane!
Unfortunately at the moment I do not have any writing guides. I will keep you posted as I am planning on having a written post along with all my tutorials in the future.
