STEP 1 - Mask Open a new image 650x500. Fill with white. Add a new layer and fill with #F17AAC or the colour of your choice. Appliquer le masque 202 de Gems. Lower the opacity to 51. Add a layer. Selections > Select All. Copy paste my overlay in the selection. Selections > Select None. STEP 2 - Elements Do not apply a drop shadow. Select the elements without any "highlight". Once each element has been resized, sharpen it:
Add a layer and with your Selection tool, draw a rectangle 420x215:
Fill with grey #404040. Selections > Select None. Add these elements to re-create a PSP work area. Toolbar - at 45%. Place on the left. Main toolbar - at 80%. Place at the top, and across. Material properties - at 20%. On the right. Layer Palette - 35%. On the right. Copy paste an image of youe choice in the middle. And your result should look somewhat like this:
Now add the following elements under and around the rectangle. Photo toolbar - at the top and on the right. Select script - rotate 25° to the right. Material palette - at the top. New image toolbar - 50% and then rotate 25°. Ajouter au-dessus de Material palette et à droite. Material palette gradient - 50% and on the left, on the side. Color palette - 50% on the right and at the bottom. Credit card logos - 65% on the right at the bottom. STEP 3 - Borders using my scripts All these elements have a border with an inner bevel applied and a drop shadow except for the elements in the rectangle. So the scripts have to be run on the rectangle and all these elements aroun d the rectangle. Activate the layer Photo toolbar. Then go the the Script window in the toolbar. If you don't see the Script window in the Tools bar, you will have to make it show. Click on View > Customize > Toolbars > Script > Close. The Script window is now visible.
Click on the little arrow "Select Script" next to the menu. I have marked it in red. A window will opens. At the top, under Categories, select Restricted-Scripts. You will see all the Restricted-Scripts that are installed. Select MF_PSBorder1_mf12.
Check that the option "Toggle Excution Mode" (1) is pressed in. Then click on the arrow Run Selected Script (2). A selection then a border will be created and a new layer added. The script will then end. When you can see the selection around the element Photo toolbar, fill it with #67B4CC or the colour of your choice. Now in the menu, click again on the little arrow and this time, select the 2nd script MF_PSBorder2_mf12. Now click on the arrow "Run Selected Script" (2). The inner bevel and drop shadow will be applied and the frame merged with the element. My result:
And carry on in the same way with the other elements. First run Script 1 then fill with your colour and then run Script2. STEP4 - Other elements without a border and the tube webcam at 25%. Place above the rectangle, in the middle. Apply a drop shadow
Flash drive at 8%. Same drop shadow. Tube of your choice.
STEP 5 - Text Write PSP with the BD Cartoon Shout in bold. Then apply an inner bevel
and then Eye Candy 4000 > Gradient Glow
Same drop shadow. Now write A Way of Life in pink with a smaller font like Mandingo. Apply the same inner bevel. And the same Gradient Glow but enter 3.00 instead of 5.00. Apply a smaller drop shadow.
