Romantic Greeting Card
posted by photoboy27
Create a nice romantic greeting card for your girlfriend.
1. Open the image you want to use for your background. I’ve chosen this nice swan on a lake image.
2. Duplicate the Layer (right click on the layer and hit Duplicate Layer). Set the Blending Mode to Overlay. You might wanna change the Fill value (in my case I used 50%, because otherwise the sun would’ve been to strong).
3. Merge the layers (hit Ctrl+E with the top layer selected) and then duplicate the newly created layer (like in step 2). With the top layer selected, go to Filter >> Blur >> Gaussian Blur, enter 7 px and hit ok.
4. Set the top layer’s Blending Mode to Linear Dodge.
5. Add you text now.
6. Open the Layer Style window (the small “f” button on the botton of the layers window) and apply Outer Glow with these settings:
7. And you’re done. Enjoy!
