Fifth lesson : Glittering image

Long time no lesson :D!
Okay, today we are going to do something similar like last lesson.
We are going to make our pictures prettier,
by making it glittering.

Now, I am sure that you know how to open the image you want to.
Press Ctrl+O or double click the background :)



I recommend you to use black-based image today.
I opened a model's image. You can open anything.

Now open the image that you have saved, the black&white flowers.



Now, using this tool , just drag the flower image into your another picture.
You will see something like this:



Now, by pressing Ctrl+T, adjust the size and location/angle and put
it in your wanted-place (:



I did in such way. Now, choose the mode from your Layers window.
Please change it to the Screen / Lighten Mode if your image is black background.
You may change it by following your taste (:





Now, Press Ctrl and at the same time, click the layer 2 (flower image).
You will see that it's surrounded by moving dots like ants.
Now, do not touch anything, just click new layer in your layer window.
It's just beside your trash can icon!

If you did it, press and press Spectrum.



There are two spectrums but I recommend the one with star :D
Now click it, and just drag it!
Now, after you dragged it, change the mode to Overlay.





Now, press Marquee tool and select the edge of the flower picture.
After you selected the area, please go Filter-Blur-Motion Blur




Please adjust the pixels according to your taste.
Then you will see something like this:



Okay, now, press Sharpen Tool and sharpen the flowers and lips!
It will look like it's glittering, and please be careful:
Do not over-sharpen it!



Actually this is all!
If you want to add some pictures and decorate them like what we have
learnt last lesson, please to do so!
I decorated like this:
