Tutorial to create a credit card in photoshop.

In this tutorial, we’ll learn how to create a credit card in phtoshop.

Step 1

Create a new document of size 600×600 and with any background color or texture of your style. Here I have put some gradient effect.

Step 2

Create a new layer. Draw a rectangle using the rounded rectangle shape tool and fill it with white color. Set the radius of the edges to about 10px.

Step 3

Now open the blending options for this shape and apply the following effects on the layer. For the gradient overlay use the following colors #ffdd40, #e6c345, #fbe54f, #f6e886.

Step 4

Next take an image of a world map, I have taken one from here.

Step 5

Now play with some Hue & Saturation settings of this image to give it a tint of the credit card’s color. Resize it to fit within the credit card’s rounded rectangular layer. Also decrease the opacity of this map layer to about 40%.

Step 6

With the rounded rectangular layer selected, grab the ellipse selection tool. Check the Subtract from Selection option in the menu. Drag the ellipse shape tool, over the selected portion, so as to get a shape as shown below.

Step 7

Create a new layer with the above selection and fill it with white color. Decrease the opacity of this layer to about 25%.

Step 8

Similarly draw another shape, but htis time of somewhat smaller size and on the diagonally opposite corner. Fill this layer with #ecb213 color. Decrease the opacity of this layer also to 25%.

Step 9

Next take another stock image for a globe and resize and place it above all the layers.

Step 10

Put some outer glow color- #eeffac on this globe image.

Step 11

Create two small circular layers of red and dark yellow color and place it as shown below.

Step 12

Next give some bank name to your credit card. Here I have used Serif Fonts. Place this text layer on top of all layers and apply the following blending options to this text layer. Take the font color as #a6640c

Step 13

Similarly give some credit card type here and apply the following blending options to it. Here also take the font color as #a6640c.

Step 14

Your credit card will now look something like this.

Step 15

Next write some credit card number with the text color set to #955b0f.

Step 16

Now the Credit card will look like this.

Step 17

Now add two dates to the credit card and apply the following blending options to it.

Step 18

Next add a credit card holder name and apply the following blending options to it.

Step 18

Your credit card will looklike this now

Step 20

Next to get the shadow effect, just draw a thin ellipse, crate a new layer and fill it with black color. Gaussian Blur the layer with a value of about 3 and finally decrease the opacity of this layer to about 75%.

Final Step

Finally I have added some reflection to the layer by flipping the complete credit card horizontally, adding a layer mask and applying a linear black and white gradient on that mask.
