Blue Summer
Frame (PSP 7, 8 &
9) A tutorial by Mar
© 2005.

What you need: PSP. Download a 30 day trial
here. Materials: Download
here. Open all images from the ZIP in PSP. Other flower
tubes? Download these from my tubes
site. The Ormente filter: Download
here. Create a folder Ormente in your plugins folder in
PSP and extract all 3 Zip's in it. Eye Candy 3.1. Download
here. Close
and restart PSP otherwise your filters won't
work.
Save
often. Let's go. Good
luck.....
1. Open a new image 400 X 400 >
Transparent.
2. Foreground to
#7491b9. Background to #2b4365. Foreground to
gradient. Look for the "Fore-back" gradient. Texture unchecked
(bleu hand).

3. Now put your background style to
pattern and look for the silver pattern from the ZIP.
4. Your menu has to look like
this:

5. Fill your image with the
gradient.
6. Selections > Select
all. Selections > Modify > Contract with 2
pixels. Selections > Invert.
7. Fill the selection with your right
mouse button (the silver pattern).
8. Effects > Plugins > Ormente's
Filters > Miropads.

 Notice!!!! You have to use this filter, with this
settings, every time you have filled a selection.
9. Selections > Invert.
10. Repeat the Ormente's
Filter. Selections > Modify > Contract with 35
pixels.
11. Fill the selection with your right
mouse button (the silver pattern).
12. Repeat the Ormente's
Filter. Selections > Modify > Contract with 2
pixels.
13. Fill the selection with the
gradient.
14. Repeat the Ormente's
Filter.
15. Selections > Modify >
Contract with 10 pixels.
16. Fill the selection with your right
mouse button (the silver pattern).
17. Repeat the Ormente's
Filter.
18. Selections > Modify >
Contract with 2 pixels.
19. Layers > Merge > Merge all
flatten. Click your delete key. If all went well you'll l
have a dark blue fill now. If the inner part is transparent, you
forgot to merge flatten.
You have to have this
now:

20. Selections > Select
nothing.
21. Open the MD-summerflowers.psp and
copy.
22. Edit > Paste >
Paste as a new layer.
23. It's at the right spot so no need
to move.
24. Lower the layers opacity to
30. Put the modus to Luminance (Legacy).

Your PC still has the flower in its
memory.

Paste as a new layer.
