30 SHADOW OVERLAYS 03 Botanical Shadows Plants Branches Leaves
SHADOW OVERLAYS
This set includes 30 shadow overlays, all made from real photos of organic botanical shadows (plants, branches, leaves).
You can use these shadow overlays to add natural light effects to any graphic, mood board, or mockup. Place a shadow overlay on top of your image, set the blending mode and adjust the opacity to get the results you're looking for.
I prefer to set the blending mode of shadow overlays to Linear Burn or Color Burn, with the opacity set to 50%, which I can then increase or decrease to get the desired look. But you can also try other blending modes, such as Multiply or Overlay, and see what works best for you.
FILM GRAIN OVERLAYS, TEXTURE BACKGROUNDS, BACKGROUND COLORS
Other than applying shadow overlays to graphics, mood boards, and mockups, you can also combine them with other elements provided in this collection to create aesthetic and natural looking abstract backgrounds.
You can apply a shadow overlay only to a background color, solid or gradient.
There are 20 predefined solid colors in this collection for your to start with. But you can easily change them or use your own.
To add texture to your design, you can use either one of the 4 texture backgrounds (3 paper textures and 1 wall texture) or one of the 4 film grain overlays.
Since all the elements are provided as JPG files, you can use them in basically any photo editing software.

The Photoshop PSD file is downscaled to 3000x2000 px only to keep the file size smaller and to make opening and editing of the file faster and easier.

The PSD file contains all shadow overlays, film grain overlays and background textures as JPG files.
Background colors are provided as Color Fill layers in the PSD file, but also as JPG files if you want to use them in another photo editing software.
There are 20 predefined colors, but you can easily customize them in the PSD file or add your own.
Preview images are just premade backgrounds, where I combined some of the shadow overlays with background textures and background colors.
The User Manual contains a list of all the elements, as well as the blending mode options and opacity settings I used in each of the examples.

FAQ
→ Can I use these graphics on POD sites like Society6, Redbubble, Printify, or Printful?
Standard License: No, the Standard License does not allow POD use.
Extended License: Yes! You can use the graphics on POD platforms, but they must be part of a larger, original design, never uploaded or sold as standalone files.
💡 Tip: If your POD product is mainly the graphic itself, you’ll need an Extended License. For most personal, business, and client projects that don’t involve POD, the Standard License is perfect.
