Juliëtte..L & K
This tut is made for PSP 8, the standard version.
Because Karen and I couldn’t make a choice
we made Romeo and Juliëtte, a duo lesson, lollll.
Actually they have the same base, but they look totally different. We doubted
a whole day and then decided to write them both.
This tut is translated for us by Mac (off the L&K members )and we give here a hug and biggggg kiss for doing a wonderfull job, thanks sweetie, lisette and karin.

Preparation:
• I work with the metallic gradient, but after
finishing, you could change into any colour by using “colorize”.
• Have your foreground set on a flat tube colour, in this case I chose grey.
1. Open a new transparent image 1024 / 450
2. Flood fill with foreground colour, in this case grey.
3. Close your background colour (just click on the arrow if you can close)
4. Foreground colour, Material, gradient Metallic:
• Angle : 90
• Repeat: 0
• Style: Linear
• Invert: not checked
5. Layers / new layer
6. Selection Tool:
7: Set as print screen:
8. Flood fill selection with the metallic gradient.
9. KEEP ALL SELECT!!!!!
10. Effects/ 3D Effects / Drop Shadow, as follows:
11. Selections / Select none
12. Layers / Merge all (flatten)
Save this for later on!
13. Open a new transparent image 285 / 285
** Click on your rulers; View / Rulers and your status toolbar: View / Toolbars / Status **
14. Use your Pen Tool
- widen : 2.00

15. Draw a diagonal line (using the metallic gradient)
• start in the corner at 0,0
• draw 30,00 x 30,00 using your rulers,
example beneath:
16. Effects/ plugins / simple – top left mirror
17. Preset shape tool, choose Rectangle.
• Retain Style: Not checked
• Anti Alias: checked
• Vector: checked
• Width: 2,00
18. Zoom in (use View – Zoom)
19. Put your mouse exactly on the tip of the line,
and draw a rectangle as
given
If necessary, correct this rectangle by using the red cubes.
20. Layers / Vector1 layer / convert to raster layer.
21. Selections / select all
22. Selections / modify / contract 2 pixels
23. Selections / Invert
24. Flood fill / gradient / adjustments:
