Okay, let's get started

Remember to save often!!!

Open template and shift D

Close original and re-size canvas to 800 x 800

Crop after tag is done

Delete info layer

There are a few basic steps for this template that are repetitive.

1. Select layer

2. Float

3. Add new layer

4. Fill with color of choice

5. Apply filter of choice

6. Apply gradient glow  and noise at 50 to original layer

Go HERE if you aren't familiar on my way of adding gradient glow using EC 5 Impact 

We are going to start at the bottom layer (in layers pallet)

and work our way up the template following the steps above.

First start merging matching layers together

rectangle with rectangle

 circle with circle

and so on and so on

Once you have layers merged go back to bottom layer 

Duplicate

Re-size larger and apply mask

Merge group

black oval - #449147 + scan lines

green circles - #008ee0 + scan lines + tube (lower opacity)

blue rectangles - #f787c5 + FU

orange rectangles - red & green + xenofex scatter + FU

pink rectangles - #ffd65f + FU

blue long rectangle - duplicate 

white outline - instead of adding new layer invert selection and promote to layer on bottom layer 
black circle - red + tube (lower opacity)

white rectangle - delete

green large rectangle - #f19221 + FU

Add name
Just crop each letter of name if using alpha

Add drop shadow to layers
