JJ-BLEND -GLITTER EFFECT

Photobucket
for this blend tutorial you will need:
PSP and animation shop
texture no017, I used a fab FREE one from devinant by ARTPLUSLOVE HERE
check out her gallery its awesome here
font used was Dr Carbfred
For this tut I am using the artwork of Jennifer Janesko you will need to buy a licence to use this artists work at CDO, I bought my tubes long ago from CILM which is now closed.
.................................................
open canvas 500 x 250 pixels floodfill with a white background

copy and paste the texture as a new layer, and arrange so that the line across the texture goes across the bottom of the canvas
arrange 3 images of the same artist to your liking across the canvas, each on a new layer

then duplicate the texture layer and bring to the top

do this by going to - Layers -  Arrange - bring to top

then change the blend mode of the top texture to screen by going to 
layers - properties -  change the blend mode from normal to screen

click ok

then add a new raster layer floodfill with white

go to selection all -  modify - contract by 3 then

hit the delete button on your keyboard to remove the excess...
this should give you a white edge

go to selections - none

then go to adjust - add/remove noise -  add noise and

in the pop up menu that appears, make your settings

the same as mine see below...

now is a good time to add your copyright

with the following settings, background white, foreground null
Photobucket

convert to raster layer then duplicate the text
and on the bottom text layer add a drop shadow
i used the following settings
Photobucket
then make the top text layer your active layer simply by clicking on it

then add the same noise settings as before......
you can now save your tag as a jpg.
.............................................................
if you want the glitter effect animated,

go to - copy merged and paste into animation shop as a new animation

go back to PSP
then click undo to remove the noise effect on your name

then add noise again but change the noise setting to 40

go to - copy merged and paste into animation shop after current frame

go back to PSP
then click undo to remove the noise effect on your name

repeat and change noise to 30
go to - copy merged and paste into animation shop after current frame
save as a gif and you are done...
