Star Dreams

You will need a tube similar to mine

Open a new transparent canvas 500x 500.

In the foreground box of your material palette chose a gradient to match the tube and setting-style linear repeats and angle 0. I used the gradient called landscape.

With selection tool on star 1 draw a star to almost fill the canvas.

Flood fill this selection with the gradient you used before.

Add a default drop shadow-repeat the drop shadow but change the the horizontal and vertical settings to -10

Selection none

Effects-reflection effects-feedback-preset-stagger upper right

If you don't have this preset the settings are Opacity 10 Intensity 100 Horizontal 100

Vertical minus-100 Elliptical unchecked

Image canvas size-550x550

Click on the bare canvas with magic wand-settings-mode replace and match mode-RGB value

Flood fill this with the same gradient as before.

Select None

Image -picture frame-add an edge design of your choice-I used edge design 05

Merge layers visible and crop off any excess white canvas

Copy and paste the tube as a new layer and add the drops shadows as you did for the star selection

Layers merge visible.

Resize as you wish then add a new layer for any text, watermark and artists information.

That's you tag finished-I hope you enjoyed making it.
