Clipping Mask
A clipping mask works similarly to a layer mask (discussed in Module 1). Clipping masks allow for masking effects, such as an image showing through text.
A clipping mask is accomplished by using two layers in a Photoshop document. The bottom layer of the two acts as the masking agent.
