From this:
To this:
1. Open the pic you want.
2. Then DUPLICATE LAYER.(LAYERS ==> DUPLICATE LAYER) Click ok.
3. Go to FILTER ==> Gaussian Blur. I suggest you set it to 10. It's up to you!
4. Find your layers section. It's on the right hand side. You should see your 'Layer 1 copy' or 'Background Copy'. Do you see the drop down menu? At the moment, it should have Normal on it. Click the tab and look for 'Screen'. Set it's OPACITY to 40%.
5. Duplicate it again and find the same drop down menu in #4. Click OVERLAY and set it's opacity to 50%.
6. Then finally, merge your pic [SHIFT+CTRL+E] or, ==> Layers ==> Merge Visible.
This is only the basics!
For the border:
EDIT ==> Stroke.
Width: 1px. Inside.
Choose any color you want!
Then click ok.
Done!
