In this tutorial, I'm going to show you how to make this floral effect.
Open a Photoshop document. Set the size to 1800*1600.
Create a new layer and open the Gradient editor. Set the colors to#ffffff and #91dbf1. Select the radial gradient and create a smallcircle, just like this:
Now open the stock.psd file and click on the thumbnail on the layerpanel while holding Ctrl to select it. (http://www.2shared.com/photo/2Jvy9Rn_/stock.html )
Move it to the picture. Position it like this:
Apply the outer glow on that layer. Set the blend mode to normal, leave the opacity at 75%. Set the spread at 3 and size at 10.
Create a new layer and open the Brush properties. Select the brushcalled Fuzzball (It's default). Set the size at 10 and the spacing at71%. The rest is like this.
Follow the thicker lines of the stock and create a few U-styled goingout of the white hole. Add an Outer glow effect, just change the opacityto 41%, leave everything else as it was.
Create a new layer, set the colors to white and black and create a radial gradient like this.
Set the blend mode to Overlay.
