This is a fine piece of iPhone app icon:



I'm wondering how they created the fine texture along with the slight 'glow' on the edges:



I suppose the texture is made by a semi-transparent layer on top of the red background, but how did they do the light red glow on the border of the icon?

In Illustrator, two options come to mind.


Use the inner glow effect
Add another fill and apply a transform effect to scale it in from the edges.

In Photoshop, this can be done by using stroke.

Left click on layers and open blending option

Blending option > Stroke


and then select color according to need.
