Photoshop Creative

Hi there.....I have directions on how to do rounded corners but I'm not understanding on how to get ride of the white/transparent corners on the photo. Here is what I'm doing:

1. Crop Image to size needed
2. Double Click to unlock background layer
3. U - Rounded shape tool set at 95 px.
4. Click and drag rect. shape over photo.
5. Drage background layer below photo layer.
6. Select photo layer - click arrow to create clipping mask
7. Image, Trim transparent pixels.
8. Flatten
9. Save png

Those are the steps I'm doing.....when I did this for the first time I got but now I'm not.....I have to be missing a step.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks so much,
Bridget

Hi Bridget, you could achieve the same by select all, feather (enter the lets just say 15) then select inverse. create a new layer the choose fill, you canfill with pattern color, etc.
I hope this is what you are asking. Please let us know if this helps

You might also try using the cookie cutter tool and selecting the rectangle with rounded corners. That is how I generally do it.

Don't flatten the image.
When you flatten you lose transparency. It gets replaced by white.
