Tutorials Tutorial 1 ]Heart frame on a new layer
Open a document.
Select the custom shapes tool and select the fill pixel option. Create a new layer. Select the custom shape from the custom shapes palette. The shape to be used is stored in the shapes file 2 hearts designs (CSH file format), the shape file needs to be loaded before use. Use the right arrow load / replace functionality to load the shapes set. The shapes set consists of 100+ shapes. Select one of the 'frame' heart designs.
Set the color of the custom shape (in this case, red) and then apply the shape by dragging the shape across the document. Release the mouse, this place the custom shape on the document. The shape is now on its own layer. To add frame elements, you can either add this to the current layer or create a new layer.
Go to the layer menu and select the layer style drop shadow command. Add a drop shadow to the frame. The frame can then be flattened or dropped onto the background image layer.
Tutorial 2 ] Hearts spray
Open a new document.
Select the custom shapes tool and select the fill pixel option. Go to the custom shapes options and select the defined size option. This means the shapes are created as created by the shapes designer. Open the shapes file (heart designs 2) and select the shape (in this case shape 47).
Apply the custom shape tool by simply clicking the document in random locations. Select a different color, re-click the document in multiple places to apply more of the heart shapes designs across the document. The shape always take the color of the current foreground. The shapes can be applied using 100% opacity (or less, to create a blurry design). The shapes can be applied using different blending modes, instead of using just the normal blending mode). Effects can be applied in between custom shape generation (such as a blur or color change or artistic effect).
Tutorial 3 ]Hearts shape pattern
Open a new document (two documents). One for the pattern and one for the source pattern.
Go to the source pattern file and select the custom shapes tool. Select the fill pixel option. Select the shape file (via the load / replace command) and the shape (shape 48)
Apply the shape to the source pattern document. A single shape can be applied (again, this uses the current foreground color) or multiple applications of the same shape in different positions (or a different shape). Change the angle of the shape by using the rotate image command. Use the offset filter to create more interesting pattern designs (avoiding the seams of the pattern). If the source pattern is 300 x 300 then set to the offset to -150 150
Once the pattern has been created with the heart shapes, use the define pattern command to save the pattern to the Photoshop patterns library palette. Use the fill layer content pattern command to apply the pattern to the other document. The shape (pattern) can now be re-scaled and aligned as required.
