What you need:
PSP. Download a 30
day trial here.
ZIP with materials: Download here.
Open the template and the mask in PSP.
Birthday pictures for the cards inside download here.
Save often!
Let's begin..... Good luck!
Open the MD-HB-Base.jpg from the ZIP.
Promote the background to layer.
Layers > New raster layer.
Open the MD-BDGold.jpg pattern.
Foreground to pattern and look for the MD-BDGold.jpg.
Texture unchecked (= bleu hand).
Fill this layer with the gold.
Effects > Reflection-effects > Kaleidoscope.
In your Layer Pallet move this layer below the colorful layer.
Select the colorful top layer (= bleu).
Layers > New mask layer > From image.
Look for the MD-HB-Mask.jpg.
Apply.
Layers > Merge > Merge group.
Selections > Select all.
Selections >
Modify > Contract with 10 pixels
Selections > Invert.
Effects > Texture effects > Sculpture.
Because the picture for the inside that I want to use has
bleu in it, I choose a bleu color with my color picker: #3d4e9e.
If you want to use one of the other cards..... adjust the color.
With your color picker take a color that matches your result best.
The pattern for sculpture is the basic silver pattern.
Effects > 3D-effects > Drop Shadow > Color black.
Repeat the drop shadow but this time Horiz. and Vert. at - 5.
Selections > Select all.
Selections > Modify > Contract with 50 pixels.
Click your delete key.
Selections > Modify > Expand with 10 pixels.
Repeat the texture effect Sculpture.
Repeat the drop shadow at 5 and at - 5.
Select with your wand the middle part of your frame.
Now open the cards from the Cards.ZIP.
Make a choice and copy.
I choose the first, Birthday-wishes.
Back to your card:
Edit > Paste > Paste in to selection.
Repeat the drop shadow at 5 and at - 5.
It depends on your choice of card if you want to add some text.
Take any nice font to your liking to add some text if you want to.
Take a color and stroke matching the colors of your card.
Your
Birthday Card is done.
I hope you
enjoyed making it.
