    on a new layer, hit ctrl+a (selects whole canvas) nd then go edit stroke (make sure inside is selected). Make it 3px nd colour black, then ok.
    Select it again, nd stroke it again but this time make it 2px nd colour white
    Select it again, nd stroke it again, then make it 1px and colour black.


    Set the layer to overlay/soft light
