The ‘sliced effect’ is just the attention-grabbing style your posts need, and design ninja skills are not required.

One way to think of this style is to imagine using a craft knife on a photo to make and arrange shapes in cool, abstract ways.

Chop tip: The easiest way to get slicing from scratch is with your old pal, the Crop tool. Crop your image into vertical or horizontal sections, saving each shape, then arrange to suit.

If that sounds like totes too much work, don’t worry, we’ve done all the slicing and dicing for you with these creative ideas and uses!
