Add Frame
Add a frame around an image. You can pick the color of the frame and the size of it.
Vignette
The Vignette tool subtly draws focus to the subject by darkening or lightening the edges of an image. Adjust the Radius to control how far the vignette extends toward the center, Softness to define how gradually it blends into the image, and Strength to set the intensity of the effect. These controls allow precise, non-destructive shaping of visual emphasis and mood.
