colors and sizes.  Click on the Read More link below for a simple walk thru example
using easy to follow text and images.   Hope this set and example can be of use.







BELOW IS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW I USED/APPLIED 2 TEXTURES IN THE SET.

STEP 1: OPEN IMAGE TO USE

STEP 2: OPEN GLOW 3 TEXTURE SEEN ABOVE "WHICH BECOMES LAYER 1" >
SET LAYER MODE TO 'MULTIPLY' AND OPACITY AT 78% SEEN BELOW.

STEP 3: NOW OPEN iBLUE TEXTURE SHOWN ABOVE "WHICH BECOMES
LAYER 2" > SET LAYER MODE TO 'COLOR BURN' AND OPACITY AT 46%
AS SEEN BELOW

STEP 4: NOW SELECT THE ERASER TOOL > MEDIUM SOFT > THEN GO BACK
TO LAYER 1 AND ERASE THE TEXTURE FROM THE FACE AND NECK, DO THE
SAME FOR LAYER 2.

BEFORE DUPLICATE BACKGROUND LAYER APPLIED SEEN ABOVE


STEP 5: NOW GO TO THE BACKGROUND LAYER AND RIGHT CLICK AND SELECT DUPLICATE LAYER, THEN DRAG IT UP ON TOP OF ALL LAYERS, THEN SET LAYER
MODE TO 'MULTIPLY' AND THE OPACITY AT 38% SEEN BELOW.

ITS HARD TO TELL A DIFFERENCE, BUT THERE IS AND WILL BE A DIFFERENCE
WHEN APPLIED.

STEP 6: LOOKING GOOD, JUST ONE SMALL PROBLEM, I'M NOT HAPPY WITH
THE BOTTOM RIGHT SHOULDER, I FIND IT DISTRACTING,

A QUICK FIX IS NEEDED SO I GO TO LAYER 1 AND SELECT IT > THEN I GO TO
FILTER > BLUR > GAUSSIAN BLUR > SET IT TO 27.0 PIXELS AND CLICK OK,
LOOKS BETTER AS SEEN BELOW.

STEP 7: I'M SATISFIED AND DONE.

 ** OPTION: YOU MIGHT WANT TO MAKE A DUPLICATE OF THE ORIGINAL
BACKGROUND AND DRAG IT TO THE TOP, JUST SO YOU CAN CLICK ON AND
OFF TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE'S BETWEEN THE ORIGINAL AND TEXTURED
VERSIONS. **


HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL AND CAN BE OF SOME USE.

Floral Arrangement Tutorial Walk-thru

1. Open image to be used, this becomes the background layer.

2. Open "Glow 4" texture, which becomes Layer 1, and set Layer Mode to Linear Burn
and the Opacity at 68%.

3. Now open the "Deadth" texture, which becomes Layer 2, and set the Layer Mode to
Linear Burn and the Opacity at 47%.

4. Hmmm, seems a little flat to me, so what I do is right click on the background
layer and select Duplicate Layer, then drag it to make it the top layer, which
becomes background layer 2. 

5. Next I go to "Filter" > "Stylize" > "Emboss" and set the "Angel" at 90, the "Height"
to 4 and the Amount at 80%, click OK. Now, change the Layer Mode to "Hard Light" and
set the Opacity at 72%.

6. That's it!
