To make your bubbly sushi design, all you have to do is create vector art of the sushi from above (if you don't know how to design 2D vector art, then check out these brilliant vector art tutorials). Once you've done that, click on your sushi (make sure all the shapes are grouped) and apply the Inflate Effect in the 3D and Materials panel. Adjust the Depth and Volume slider as you wish, and then when you're happy, head over to the Materials Tab and adjust the Roughness of the design to get that shiny bubble look. 

This nifty hack isn't the first we've seen from the TikToker. A few weeks ago, Johnson shared her top three Adobe Photoshop hacks of 2021. In fact, if you follow Johnson's TikTok account, there are plenty of useful tips and tricks to help you navigate your way around the Adobe softwares. 

If you'd like to brush up on your Adobe knowledge and can't wait for the next TikTok to go viral, then make sure you read our roundups of the best Photoshop tutorials or Illustrator tutorials.
