Click and hold on the Lasso Tool, then select the Polygonal Lasso Tool from the fly-out menu. Step 4: Draw A Polygonal Shape In The Center Of The Document Use the Polygonal Lasso Tool to draw a polygonal-shaped selection in the center of the document, which will become the hole that's being punched through the image. Simply click at the points where you want the corners of the shape to appear and Photoshop will automatically connect them to create the sides of the shape as you go.

There's no need to drag the tool inside the document (in fact, it won't work if you drag it). Just click at a corner point, release your mouse button, click at another corner point, release your mouse button, and so on as you make your way around the shape. Click back on the original spot to complete the shape. It should look something like this when you're done. Click and hold on the Polygonal Lasso Tool and select the Lasso Tool from the menu.

Step 8: Draw The Torn Paper Shapes Use the Lasso Tool to draw the shape of the first piece of torn paper. Since the black polygonal shape will become the hole that's being punched through the image, each of its sides will need its own separate torn paper piece, but we'll just draw one for now.
