How to make cover for bundle to sell at Teachers Pay Teachers – Photoshop Tutorial

One of the great thing about selling at Teachers Pay Teachers is that you can make an automatic bundle. This means once you update your individual product (the product which is included in the bundle), the bundle is also automatic updated.

In this tutorial I’ll show how to make preview image/ cover for bundle. The square cover looks better for Teachers Pay Teachers. So, I’ll do my preview image in square.

Open photoshop.

Make a new file. I use 1000 x 1000 pixels at 72 dpi, RGB color. If you prefer rectangular horizontal cover, is also okey.

I’ll make a bundle from 4 individual poster products (each product already has a cover in square size of 1000 x 1000 pixels). So, I’ll combine them all into one page for the bundle cover.

I open one of the poster cover.

I copy the poster cover into the new file (the file for the bundle cover). As always, I just use shortcut as follow

from the poster cover file: ctrl A (select all), ctrl c (copy)

back to the new file (the cover bundle file): ctrl v (paste)

After that, I resize the poster cover. Again, using the shortcut ctrl T (transform), and then I set 50% for the width and also 50% for the height (see red arrows). Now, I have the 1st poster in half size.

Drag along the image into the top left.

Do the same thing for the 2nd, 3rd, & 4th poster covers. Place them into the blank space.

After that, I’ll add text.

Clik the T icon from left tool bar. Choose the font/size/color from the top menu (see red arrows). Make sure your text layer is above other layers (see yellow arrow).

Then, I’ll add some effects to the text.

From the top menu, choose layer –> layer style –> stroke

From the pop up box, you can make some adjustments.

After that, I’ll ad drop shadow to the text.

And that’s all. Bundle cover is ready now.
