In this lesson you will need the filter:
nik Color Efex Pro!
To start off, save the girl and the 2 backgrounds below into your system.


1. Open the av and the bgs provided.

2. Increase Color Depth on av and bg(s).

3. Copy and paste the bg1 over your av.

4. Change the Layer Blending Mode, of Layer 1 (bg1), to Burn. Get the Eraser tool, and use these settings;
Size; 25 Opacity; 30 Step; 25 Density; 100

Erase some parts around the eyes and the mouth of the model. By now you should have similar to what we have below.

5. Merge your layers, then duplicate the background layer by going to Layers, Duplicate.

6. Once you've done that, goto Effects, Plug-in Filters, then to nik Color Efex Pro! and then choose, Color Stylizer input the settings below;

Color; #F0C864 Contrast; 59% Saturation; 8% then Click OK.

7. Merge all layers, and duplicate background layer again.

8. Next open BG2, copy and paste it as a new layer on top of your av, and erase parts like I have done below, just under the face. Under the face, delete abit around the edge of the face to make it look like theres a shadow around her.

9. Now you can add your text and add your own touch of style after that, Voila' you are done!!!

This is what I've come up with!

And Voila' you are done!!!
