Find a nice grunge texture… I’ll use this for an example:

You want a nice contrasting image to use as a mask.

I desaturated the texture and use levels to come up with this:

You can then use the texture as a mask…

  • Select and copy the texture image
  • Add a mask to the layer you want to add the texture to
  • alt+click the mask to edit the mask
  • Paste
  • Click on the layer thumbnail again to finish editing the mask.
