CHRISTMAS WISHES
TWO DIFFERENT TAGS FROM THE SAME TUTORIAL
You may want to draw
your own circles, but if not, I’ve included my selection which is in the downloads and
should be placed in your selections folder.
Open a new image 800 x800, transparent background.
**Layers/New Raster Layer - If you don’t want the background and frame skip the next steps.
Using two colours
from your main image make a gradient. I set mine like below
Flood fill your new
layer with this gradient. If you intend
to put a border around your image I would do it now.
I used 4 main colour, 4 white and 7 main colour.
Then I used
Graphics Plus/Cross shadow on outer edge**
Layers/New Raster
Layer
Selections/Load
Selection for disk – look for jmr interlocking circles.
Change your
foreground colour to material and select a fill of your choice. I’ve included
the one I used - cmlstgold005. Fill your circle frames with this.
If you want to add a
slight inner bevel, do so now. I just
added a dropped shadow.
With your magic wand
set as below, click on the outside of your circles.
Selections
invert. Layers, New Raster Layer.
Go to your main image,
and copy it.
Then paste into
selection. You will see that the image
is on top of the frames. Layers/Arrange/Move down
Layers/Merge Visible
Close out that layer
and add a new layer.
Add your gold stars
and red ribbon to decorate.
Put your text on the
bottom and you’re done.
Resize your finished
image to 500 x 500. Add your watermark and you’re done.
I put some animation on the tags I made but it's your choice
Have fun.
