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 or paper texture

6. Apply gradient glow  and noise at 30 to original layer

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

Start at bottom and work way up template

bottom creme square - my tube covered this so I didn't do anything to it but if your tube doesn't cover choose color of choice

blue rectangle - #92b2d8 + FU papyrus

dotted rectangle  - #294066

brown strip - #e4afba + FU Japanese paper

creme square - #c1c1bb + striped paper course

medium blue circle - #5a7494 + FU filter paper

rust heart - duplicate and apply FU striped paper course + mirrored close up tube cropped to heart

white heart frame - delete

dotted circle - #e4afba

creme heart - duplicate and apply FU papyrus

blue circle - #e4afba + duplicate and apply FU special effects - aged film

Change blend mode to luminance (L)

Paste tube and position part of tube in circle

Crop to circle

heart text - #614f39

black heart - I moved to top left + #d28189 + glass

Don't forget to add the gradient glow to original layer and add noise for outline look

Use my tag as guide if needed

Once you have all the layers filled with color or texture of choice

Add anything else you would like
