Open the rosette you like to use.
There are 10 layers with different rosettes in each file.
Open all layers to look at the rosettes.
Choose the one you like to use and activate that layer (=blue).
I used the second silver doorknob in my first example.
Copy the rosette.
Edit > Paste > Paste as new image.
Close the original file.
Selection tool to circle (feather 0).
Click in the middle part of your rosette, and draw a selection circle that
will fit your image nicely and leave you a lovely border.
If your selection is not in the middle, use and right
mouse button to move your selection.
Hit delete.
You have 2 choices.
I will describe them both.
For both methods you start at the top of this tutorial.
After you hit delete, choose one of the two methods below.
Method 1:
Frame a picture.
You will have a very nice effect by framing an image.
Choose an image and convert to grayscale or use a colored one.
I liked mine to be black and white:
Image > Grayscale.
Image > Increase color depth > 16 Million colors.
A negative image is also very nice.
Adjust > Color Balance > Negative image.
If your image is ready to frame:
Edit > Paste > Paste into selection.
New raster layer.
Effects > 3D-effects > Cut Out.
New raster layer.
Repeat the cut-out with Vert. and Horiz. to - 5.
Activate your bottom (rosette) layer (=blue).
Effects > 3D-effects > Drop shadow > Black, same settings as in Method 1.
Repeat but Horiz. and Vert. to - 2.
Selections > None.
Open the tube you like to use and copy.
Edit > Paste > Paste as a new layer.
Again draw a round circle with your selection tool.
Make it fit until you have the part you like to delete.
You can select some parts you like to keep with lasso tool.
I loved to keep the hat.
Hold shift while selecting or set your mode to (PSP 8 and 9) 'Add'.
Selections > Invert.
Hit delete again.
Selections > None.
With you can always move your tube a little.
Add a drop shadow if you like to.
Merge your layers.
So we frame with doorknobs.
Who had ever thought of this lol.
