Tutorial requested by: simply_strange

We are going from to:



Take the screencap from thephotobox and crop it into your base. Then sharpen.


Duplicate once, set to screen. Then go to Adjust - Brightness & Contrast - Highlight/Midtone/Shadow. (Shift+M). Your setting should be 0 for everything. The set the opacity to 44%.
Duplicate screened layer. Go to Adjust - Brightness & Contrast - Highlight/Midtown/Shadow, and once again set everything to 0. Set your opacity to 100%
Duplicate the bottom layer, drag it to the top, set it to soft light. Have the opacity 100%


Add a new layer, set it to multiply, 100% (#F8EFE0)


Add a new layer, set it to burn, 100% (#F3EFFB)
Add a new layer, set it to burn, 100% (#F7E6DB)


Duplicate bottom base, drag it to the very top, set it to soft light, 44%. Go to Adjust - Brightness & Contrast - Highlight/Midtone/Shadow, and set everything to 100%


Add a new layer, set it to color (legacy), 12% (#F5E7C9)
Add a new layer, set it to multiply, 100% (#F5E7C9)


Time for Curves!!!!! Okay, go to Layers - New Adjustment Layer - Curves. This is where it gets tricky...

you can mess around with these setting to get different colors...


Go to Layers - New Adjustment Layer - Color Balance.

again you can change these setting so you get different colors.


Add a new layer, set to color (legacy), 26% (#F5A9C4)


Add a new layer, go to your selection tool, and under selection type pick rounded square. Make a small square, fill it in (#F5AB9D), copy it four more times so its a square.. of boxes?.. place it somewhere on your icon, and set it to hard light, 100%.
Then i duplicated it, set it to soft light, 38%


Then I used the pen tool to make the text on a slant. I used "Noodle Script", white, size 13 (i think) then i added tiny text and you done.



Tell me what you think & I would love to see what you have come up with!
