I’m quite happy with it as I love hearts and floral brushes. The heart was made using Hawksmont Hearts brush in Photoshop. The green leaves are from Hawksmont too. And the curling yellow vines are from Melemel. [...] [...] Bag Design Credits Written by WishBoNe on July 12, 2008 – 11:27 am I completed the bag design for a competition.

OR you can make a selection around the part of the image you want to be glittery, then make a new layer, and using the fill tool (set to pattern) fill in that selection. Deselect after youve filled in with the pattern. Then choose a layer blend style. Go to Layers > Layer style > blending options and choose a blend style to suit. Multiply with opacity set to around 80% will probably work ok. Finally adjust your contrast a little and it should do the job. Its a matter of experimenting really. Hope this helps! hi Francine

Do you have a glitter (or is it possible to make this kind of glitter) that is not in color? One that I can apply to artwork (pin, medal, emblem, etc.) where the glitter will take on the color of the underlying artwork? Or a glitter style where the color can be added later? thanks so much, Francine Hi,
