RANT(s):
August 31st:
yes...a new one. Sorry this may be disappointing but I'm starting to lighten up the amount I'm posting. Because for one, I feel like too many people are asking tutorials of all of my graphics. Not that I'm not flattered because I am but I mean I'm trying to spread originality and if you want every single resource I use, how are you going to be original with everything you use? I want to help you but I can't do it that much. If I'm posting tutorials it's because either A.) I really love what I made. B.) It's fairly complicated and not only three steps. or C.) I have numerous amount of people who ask. I'm overwhelmed with requests and what not so posting tutorials needs to be put off for a little while. I'm probably just lying through this whole thing about not posting often but still I don't want you guys asking for everything that I use because to tell you the truth I like keeping my resources a secret. Greedy, I know.
Now if you're my friend on here, don't worry I don't hold it against you, but sometimes you guys on here just start making tutorials that are not helping amateurs at all. I'm guilty of it too. But sometimes one pretty thing needs to made...only once. That's all this one is shorter and maybe not as angry but whatever I like to rant every once in a while.
September 24th
It's been a while since I've posted a tutorial, and yes I writing one as we speak. But with the numerous times I've spammed the Show-Off thread I wanted to point this out again. I want you to really be creative for now on if you are using my tutorials. Coloring is entirely different. Use those for requests, and all of your graphic-making. But mostly use my wallpaper/blend tutorials for your own advantage. To improve and show your amazingness. I am not the only one who is amazing. I know that fersure. But you guys wanna show how amazing you are. Use my tutorial and make it look entirely different but similar enough that shows you used my tutorial as a guideline or as inspiration. I'd love that. Thanks graphic-ers.

What You'll Need:
Texture 1 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/at1.png)
Texture 2 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/at2.png)
Texture 3 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/at3.png)
Texture 4 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/at4.png)
Box 1 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/atbox.png)
Box 2 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/atbox2.png)
Brush 1 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/atb2.png)
Brush 2 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/atb.png)
Flower (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/atf.png)
1: Open up Blank File. Mine was 475 vs 256. But you can stretch the textures or anything to be bigger or smaller.
2: Place Texture 1 down. Then Texture 2 and set it to Color Burn. Texture 3 and set it to Lighten. Then finally Texture 4 and set it to Soft Light.
3: Now before we continue with anything else, have your pictures picked out. Open up a blank file. Mine was 303 vs 175. But do anything you want. Now place the pictures on the blank file and make your blend, color, sharpen, etc.
4: Place the blend on the textures file. Place a drop shadow on the picture.
I used:
Size: 5
Distance: 1
Opacity: 100
Angle: 30
But do whatever. This is yours not mine. Now take Box 1 and Box 2 and place them at the top and bottom of the blend. Make sure the boxes are placed BEHIND the blend. Drop shadow again the same as before.
5: Now take Brush 1 and place it wherever you like. I put it at the end of the blend. It should be behind the blend layer.
6: Take the flower and place it above the blend. Wherever you like just make sure it's not covering much of the blend. Also add a drop shadow.
7: Take Brush 2 and place it around the flower. It should be behind the blend and flower.
Fairly easy. Now add text and all that jazz.

Next we will be making this (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/wallpapers/mileswall.png) Miley Wallpaper
A few people wanted to know how I did it. It's really easy actually.
What You'll Need:
Brush (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/mtb.png)
Light Texture 1 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/mtlt-1.png)
Light Texture 2 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/mtl.png)
1: Open up a 800 by 600 or 1024 vs 768 blank canvas.
2: Place your picture down. I'd suggest it was one with a white background and was hq to fit the canvas. I'll share my coloring with you now.
New Fill Layer; d6ecf9; Color Burn 100%
New Fill Layer; e6e4d2; Multiply 100%
New Hue/Saturation Layer;
Master Saturation: +15
Reds Saturation: +35
Yellows Lightness: +45
Levels;
RGB: 15, 1.34, 255
3: Now take your second picture and make three icons with it. Also place them under the coloring so they would have the same coloring as the first. Add a drop shadow.
4: Now take the first picture again and resize it to about half the size as the first. Set it to darken. Or if you're really good cut it. If you set it to darken and any of the picture is NOT hitting just the white background then make a new layer below the picture and color in white wherever it isn't the white so it doesn't look transparent.
5: Take texture 1 set it to lighten and place it whenever you think your text will be. I placed it right below the icons and coloring so it wouldn't hit the icons. Then text texture 2 and set it to lighten make sure it's on top of everything.
6: Now for text. Take your main text. In this case it would be "iambreakingout" I used the font karabinE. But use what you like. Make sure the text is black. Now place the text under texture 2 and add a white outline to the text. For the 2nd text I used Pea Missy Cursive and placed it over the texture 2 but since the text is white it wouldn't make a difference. Add a drop shadow under both. Make sure the distance on the main text is bigger than the outline.
7: Last step. Take the brush and pick out one smiley face and erase the circle around it then paste it on in black. Place it under the 2nd texture and add a drop shadow.
And viola I told you it was easy.
Examples:
one (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/wallpapers/bigmiley-1.png)two (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/wallpapers/britneyone.png)
psd (http://www.psdnow.com/download/file/ruh1R9LFsQ/)
Ok now this (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/wallpapers/ashmk.png) wallpaper.
What you'll need:
Texture 1 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/1t.png)
Texture 2 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/2t.png)
Texture 3 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/3t.png)
Texture 4 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/5t.png)
Texture 5 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/6t.png)
Frame (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/08.png)
White Bar
(http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/7t.png)
1: Open up a blank canvas. 800 vs 600. Place Tex 1 down. Then tex 2 and set it to Lighten. Now tex 3 and set it to lighten. Same with tex 3,4,5 and set to lighten.
2: Now depending on your pictures you can do this step now or after you place your pictures. It's a coloring for the background but on the MKA one it's the coloring for the pictures too.
Levels
RGB: 26, 30, 255
Red: 0, 0.70, 245
Green: 0, 0.90, 255
Duplicate the levels so you have a total of 3 layers of levels.
Hue/Saturation Layer;
Master Hue: +5
Reds Saturation: +30
Yellows Lightness: +100
3: Add your pictures. I'd say unless you're an awesome cutter, get psds.
Try psdelightful. (http://www.majestic-skies.net/psdelightful/index.php)
Get three pictures and adjust the sizes from biggest to smallest. Add a drop shadow unless you don't want to.
4: Add your white line/bar thing and get ready for the text. I used Landliebe (main) and Zebra (small) Drop shadow everything.
5: Now go to a fansite or something and get another picture then since most likely it won't be the same coloring, unless it is, I'd say put it in black and white then place the Frame around it. Then add a drop shadow. And you're done. See simple.

Brush (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/hbt6.png)
1: Open blank canvas; 500 vs 270. Put Tex 1 down then Tex 2 and set it to Lighten. Tex 3 then and set it to Lighten as well. Tex 3, put it at the bottom of the canvas and set it to multiply. Finally Tex 5 and set it to Lighten as well.
2: Open a new fill layer; 88b8e9; color burn.
3: Take the brush, make sure its white, and place two of them on the left and right sides of the canvas. You may have to resize them if needed. Add a drop shadow.
4: Now take your blend and paste one near the top where it should be just blue. After that add a black gradient at the bottom then set the image to lighten.
5: Place the blend again atop the other blend and move it over and down so you can still see the lightened blend.
6: Now put text. I used Pea Amy*Rica Script and Times New Roman.
And you're done.

Making: Blake Lively Wallpaper (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/wallpapers/blakecopy.png)
What You'll Need:
Canvas (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/bl.png)
Circle Brush (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/bl2.png)

Notebook (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/bl4.png)
1: Open up a blank canvas; 800 vs 600. Paste the Canvas/Scratch on it. You may use the one I gave you or any other.
2: Take the Circle Brush and paste it in the center of the canvas. I lowered the opacity to 15% but do whatever you want, this is YOUR wallpaper.
3: Now take the ripped paper and paste it right over the Circle Brush and wherever you please to put your pictures.
4: Then finally take the Notepad/Notebook and paste it on the bottom of where your pictures will be.
5: Now take your photos and size them so the colored one is smaller than the b&w one. Make sure that they are same height. Add a drop shadow to the colored photo. And then merge them together and then add a drop shadow to them merged.
6: Then take another photo from the same photoshoot or whatever you wish and place it on the notepad. Add a drop shadow and a gradient if you wish. Tilt it to +5. Make sure you place it BEHIND the bigger photos.
7: Add text and any light textures or whatever you want. And your done.

Making: Demi Wall Paper (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/wallpapers/demiwp.png)
What You'll Need:
Canvas (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/dm1.png)
Scratch (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/dm2.png)
Light Texture (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/dm3.png)
Paper (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/dm4.png)
Sky (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/dm5.png)
Brush (It's White) (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/dm6.png)
1: Open 800 vs 600 canvas. Paste the Canvas I provided. Now I wanted some color to it but if you don't want any color then don't worry and go on to step 2. Take the color you want and set it to color burn.
2: Open the scratch and duplicate. Set the first one to Lighten the second to Screen. Now if you want the color all over then take your fill layer and place it above it. make sure it's a really light color if you're placing it on top of this layer.
3: Place the light texture wherever you feel is going to look nice. Usually around where the picture will be.
4: Place the Paper down. Wherever you wish. Now take your photo. Only one..well you can do two, but I used one. Duplicate them and put them next to each other on the Paper. Duplicate them. Resize them smaller. Then duplicate again and resize even smaller. Ok, make sure you didn't merge them together yet. On the biggest of the group of pictures have one of the pictures in B&W. Then the 2nd biggest both in color. Then finally the smallest of them all have both in B&W then you can merge them together. Add drop shadows. And remember you can change the order of the pictures.
5: Take the Sky stock and place as the last of the pictures duplicated. Of course you can just duplicate the biggest of the pictures and make it the smallest which I've done because it didn't look right. Add drop shadow. Now take the brush and place it behind the pictures and paper. Put it somewhere around the pictures.
6: Text. You're done.

Light Texture (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/tg6.png)
1: Paste the first texture then the second on top. Set it to hard light.
2: Ok, you can place the brushes on the canvas. Place them wherever you wish. You can move them later to adjust. The Brushes are white so you may not see them. I set Brush 1 to Soft Light.
3: Add the picture you are going to use in the frame. Turn it black and white. Add a drop shadow to the black and white picture and the frame.
4: Now add your other pictures. I added a white outline/stroke and drop shadow. If you do not want a rounded outline, which I didn't, I created my own outline. You outline the picture then added a white fill layer. Then made it bigger and of course...added a drop shadow to it. The outline may make no sense, I can't really explain it.
5: Take the Light Texture and set it to lighten. Add the text on top of Brush 2 and on the b&w picture. Done.

White Box (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/st7.png)
1: Open up the canvas. Place the texture over and set it to multiply.
2: Open up the lines and place them wherever you wish on the canvas.
3: Take the ripped paper and if you want change the color to match whatever you are using. Place it to be the center of where everything will be. It needs to be seen under everything.
4: Make a blend. 344 vs 200 is what I did. Place it on the canvas and add a drop shadow.
5: Duplicate your blend and reverse it so it's upside down. Then resize it and place it in the frame. Add a drop shadow to the frame and little blend.
6: Now place the white box thing whatever it is and add text. I used the text:
ultravioleta
realistic (feniksas4)
Adobe Caslon Pro
And you're down.

Making: Ashlee Simpson Wallpaper (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/wallpapers/ashleesimpson.png)
What You'll Need:
Canvas (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/AUntitled-1copy.png)
Cardboard stock (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/AUntitled-2copy.png)
Black Box (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/AUntitled-3copy.png)

Notebook Paper (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/AUntitled-5copy-1.png)
Paint (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/AUntitled-6copy.png)
1: Open Canvas. Then place the cardboard stock over top of it. You can change the color, obviously. I've said that a lot and I'm gonna tell you how. You can use many methods but what seems easiest for almost everything I change colors is photo filter. Set it to the color you want and put the density at the highest. Then if it's too bright I use levels and make it darker. Ok the end on changing colors.
2: Place the black box in the middle of the canvas. You can change it's position later.
3: Open up your pictures. I suggest you use ones with white backgrounds or even the same color. If not then you don't need to do the next step unless you have your own ideas. After you place your picture/blend down over the black box you duplicate it and resize it so it's smaller. Set it to darken and 30% opacity. Sometimes you don't have to set the opacity lower and sometimes you don't just on your judgment. Add drop shadow.
4: Place the notebook paper over your picture and set it to darken or multiply then erase the parts that are over the faces and can be see other than on the picture.
5: Get pictures from the same photo shoot and I suggest they be head shots. Crop and resize them to be 91 vs 109. Do about four photos then place them equally apart from each other on the canvas. After that merge the head shots together and flip them while turning them to b&w. After positioned add a drop shadow.
6: Place the paint strip down. If it's too transparent for you duplicate it. Then add text.
Whoever posts there result for this one first will be the other example because basically...I'm too lazy to create another example.

That's A LOT.
1: Place the canvas down duplicate it and set it to Linear Dodge (ADD) Or do whatever you want.
2: Take the first two scratches and set them to hard light. Black one first then white one.
3: Place the ripped edge at the bottom. Don't set it to anything. Then take the circle and set it to soft light and put an opacity of 50% or so.
4: Take the orange light and place it wherever you like I put it on the wall twice. Once over near the strips of photos then one on the bigger photos.
5: Put the white box near where the pictures are ending. Just do what you want with it.
6: Put down the Paper then put the 2nd one on top of it and set it to Exclusion.
7: Now take your photo and place the colored one on the paper then duplicate it and move it down so there is a space between the two then turn it to black and white.
8: Place the tiny paper down and duplicate it twice so we have a total of three tiny papers. Now place photos under them.
9: Take the 3rd scratch and just set it to lighten.
10: Add another photo and make it black and it white then duplicate and resize it. Then if you want add a frame and then take the globe light and set it to lighten over top of it.
11: Put the little text brush on the white box then change the opacity to about 25-30%
12: Add text.

Black Bar (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/smile6.png)
1: Make your blend, (I suggest to make it similar to mine, as in three standing on one side then closer up pictures on one side) 450 vs 230, and color it. Take the Texture and set it to lighten. Now it should make your blend very hm washed out? Add contrast. I did Brightness: -28 Contrast: +100.
2: Take the light texture and place it between the standing photos set it to lighten. Erase parts that are hitting the bodies.
3: Take the stock and place it wherever you like.
4: Now place the tiny text down. Erase parts if you want it smaller.

Pink Gradient (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/w8.png) (or make your own)
1: Open up a blank canvas 450 vs 225 about. And create a blend. Color it, unless of course you wouldn't like it. If you want to, use some of mine they are fairly easy.
2: Duplicate your blend after it is merged and place it at the bottom of the blend with just the eyes/top of the blend showing. Now turn it black and white.
3: Take the black bar and place it in between the blend and the duplicated blend.
4: Take the ripped newspaper whatever it is and place it in the above the duplicated blend. Add a drop shadow then add the fireworks and set it to lighten.
5: Take your stock, add a drop shadow, and place it above the ripped newspaper.
6: Add your text if you want any then place the blue/red light texture and set it to lighten.
7: Finally place the orange light texture. I placed it over the stock, news paper and fireworks.
8: Place your white gradient. You won't have to do anything to it. Just make sure it's at all the way touching the bottom of the blend. Then add the top gradient. I've used pink, red and blue so you can use the one I provided or make your own and set it to lighten or screen and lower the opacity if needed.
9: Add +40 contrast and you're done.

Globe Light (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/jj9.png)
1: Open up your Canvas Graph Paper. The put the circles on top and set it to multiply. Then take the text and place it where ever you hope to put the big photo that you will have to cut. Set that to multiply as well.
2: Create your mini blend. The size I used was 308 vs 151. Do not close the file after you finish it and place it on the canvas. After you've colored the blend and placed it on the canvas. Go back to the blend and copy each of the singular photos. Resize them so they are small and then place them on the darkest area of your original blend and set it to lighten. Then turn it b&w. Do this for every single photo in your blend.
3: Put the flower in. Change the color by using photo filter or hue/saturation.
4: Color your bigger photo then place it on the canvas. Cut it. If you aren't very good with cutting you can try something different or ask for help. I'm not the best at it but I can do it fairly well. After you cut it. Duplicate and resize. Then convert to b&w.
5: Place the white canvas; set to multiply. Then the first scratch; screen. And the second scratch; screen. Erase any that goes over the face.
6: Add +45 Contrast.
7: Place the orange light at the bottom near your blend. Set it to lighten. Now place the globe light over the big cut photo. Lighten as well.
8: Add your text. I used Century for the small text and Pea Steph for the larger font.

This is fairly simple. Add your own twists please.
What You'll Need:
Graph Paper (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/bw1.png)
Polka Dots (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/bw2.png)

Black Scratch (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/bw6.png)
White Scratch (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/bw7.png)
1: Open up the Graph Paper. Place the polka dots on top and set to multiply. Now repeat with the text, guitar and circles. Put them WHEREVER you wish.
2: One thing good about this wallpaper is you can have pictures of different tones and no one will notice that much because it's going to be in b&w. You do not need to change it to b&w but it looks much better. Ok so how I blended the photos is I used the Lasso Tool and set Feather to 10 px. Do this with numerous pictures, BEFORE you change them to b&w. Add small and big photos for variety.
3: Add your text and a light texture, IF YOU WANT. I used Arial Black for the big letters and Pea Eshley (on the joe jonas wall) for the little text.
4: Add your black scratch set it to lighten. Now the white. Set it to multiply 40%.
5: Now here may be a bit difficult for you if you do not know what it is. For photoshop I know you can go to filter>render>light effects. Choose the omni one and play with the settings. For those of you who do not have that setting. Create a black fill layer. Play with the opacity it's really on how much you'll want to be pretty dark or not. Then take a Soft Round Brush, change the color to white, and make it as big as you want to be lighter and place it on the same canvas. It should create that type of effect.
6: Flatten and sharpen. Add your border. And if you want, which I actually did is I added the scratch now but you can do it back in step 4 if you'd like.

5: Set the stock down wherever you like and set to multiply. Then duplicate and set to darken.
6: Place down the small canvas and add a drop shadow. Make sure the opacity of the drop shadow is 50%
7: Set down your pictures. Do them similar to mine or not. Now outline half of each of the big pictures and set the same pink as the draw flowers and set to lighten.
8: Paste 1st white scratch, multiply 100% Black scratch, screen 100% 2nd white scratch, darken 100% 3rd white scratch, darken 100%
9: Put down the word bubble and add your text. Now before flattening. Merge everything BUT the text and word bubble. Then sharpen. Then you can flatten.

Black Gradient Map Thing (http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr16/lalalalaurennn/tutorials/dont4.png)
-I didn't want to look for the text so find your own if you want-
1: Use pictures with a white background if you want to be easy on yourself. I just did because one, it was for a contest and there was a white background. Not saying though if you use a white background there won't be any cutting because you will need to cut a little bit for blending them. But for now don't worry about that. Get your first picture. Color it and paste on your 500 vs 250 canvas. I'd suggest brighter colors. Sharpen, as mentioned before.
2: Duplicate your first picture. Resize and flip it so it's facing the opposite way. Convert it to b&w.
3: Get two other photos and color them. Paste them on the canvas and change the opacity to 50%. You don't have to even add theses but, do what you wish. Sharpen and all that jazz.
4: Paste the Brush and put it behind all the photos. Erase some it's behind the lowered opacity photos.
5: I added +20-50 contrast if I needed.
6: Open a new blank layer. Take a soft round brush. Size it so it's big enough that it would be less than the size of the face of the photo. Set the layer to lighten to begin with then pick two colors. Depending on the photos color scheme I picked a blue and purple but you can do whatever you want. Red often looks nice. Brush that across the part where the b&w photo and main photo intercept. Then I added two gray brush strokes to parts of the light. After that I grouped them, if you don't know what this is...don't even worry about it. (hope this made sense)
7: Take the first scratch and set to multiply. Then place the black scratch and set to screen. Then the last white scratch and multiply again.
8: Place the black gradient map thing and drag it to the bottom of your canvas. Lower the opacity if you want.
9: I'd suggest sharpening it all over one more time but do what you want. Add text and your own twists and your done.

Pink/Blue (http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr16/lalalalaurennn/tutorials/Untitled-9.png)
1: Create a blank canvas of 440 vs 230 or whatever size you like. Create your blend. I suggest only using 1-3 pictures for the entire blend and resizing/flipping them around. It's interesting and usually pretty.
2: Turn it black and white then if you want the black and white to be interesting either add contrast and brightness or use your own methods of making the pictures look nice. Sharpen it now.
3: Take the pink texture and set it to lighten or screen. On some of the examples I used both screen and lighten. I duplicated it and set it twice. Use the top part of the pink where you can see some of the green and orange part.
4: Now take the multicolored texture and place it at the bottom of the canvas and set it to lighten. Use your lasso tool, feather 10px, and erase parts that are too bright on the pictures.
5: Place the text on the bottom and set it to screen, as well with the lines.
6: The small texture place it so it's touching the bottom but anywhere on the bottom you like. Set it to Lighten.
7: Take the red texture and set it to Soft Light from 55-100% opacity.
8: The orangey/blue just place right on top and take your lasso again and erase the white line in it. Set it to Lighten.
9: Now take the green and place it to you can see the bright spark of green. Set it to lighten and add +60 Brightness and +100 contrast. Merge it down on the green.
10: Add the pink/blue at the very top so just the beginning of the head gets that color. Set it to lighten.
11: Erase with the lasso tool what you don't like on the blend and add text.
If you want to know how to do the little blend that I placed on the canvas, let me know.

Blue Gradient (SAVE THIS) (http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr16/lalalalaurennn/tutorials/021109/Untitled-9copy.png)
1: First of all, create your blend. Color it sharpen and everything else you need to prepare. I used a 500 vs 230 canvas.
2: After creating your interest. Place the mini text brush provided or add your own. Set this one to multiply.
3: Place the lines and set them to darken. Erase parts on everything else on that is covering or distracting something
4: Next place the canvas light. Resize it but not a whole lot and place it so the purpleish green yellow parts show. Set that to lighten.
5: Now place the circle light, may have to resize but probably not, at the BOTTOM of the canvas so just the red parts and what not show. Set that to lighten as well.
6: Take the same circle light but now place the bottom half of it at the TOP. Set that to lighten and do not put it so it's half way down the canvas.
7: Add the white light and set it to lighten 63ish%
8: Add the circle scratch. Screen 100% And do the exact same with the white scratch except add two extra layers of brightness/contrast the first; brightness: -120 contrast: +57. the second brightness: -50. Repeat what you did for the circle scratch for the black as well.
9: The final step is take the blue gradient and set it at the bottom of the canvas. Put it on saturation.
10: Add text, stock, whatever else you like and YOU'RE DONE.

RANT(s):
August 31st:
yes...a new one. Sorry this may be disappointing but I'm starting to lighten up the amount I'm posting. Because for one, I feel like too many people are asking tutorials of all of my graphics. Not that I'm not flattered because I am but I mean I'm trying to spread originality and if you want every single resource I use, how are you going to be original with everything you use? I want to help you but I can't do it that much. If I'm posting tutorials it's because either A.) I really love what I made. B.) It's fairly complicated and not only three steps. or C.) I have numerous amount of people who ask. I'm overwhelmed with requests and what not so posting tutorials needs to be put off for a little while. I'm probably just lying through this whole thing about not posting often but still I don't want you guys asking for everything that I use because to tell you the truth I like keeping my resources a secret. Greedy, I know.
Now if you're my friend on here, don't worry I don't hold it against you, but sometimes you guys on here just start making tutorials that are not helping amateurs at all. I'm guilty of it too. But sometimes one pretty thing needs to made...only once. That's all this one is shorter and maybe not as angry but whatever I like to rant every once in a while.
September 24th
It's been a while since I've posted a tutorial, and yes I writing one as we speak. But with the numerous times I've spammed the Show-Off thread I wanted to point this out again. I want you to really be creative for now on if you are using my tutorials. Coloring is entirely different. Use those for requests, and all of your graphic-making. But mostly use my wallpaper/blend tutorials for your own advantage. To improve and show your amazingness. I am not the only one who is amazing. I know that fersure. But you guys wanna show how amazing you are. Use my tutorial and make it look entirely different but similar enough that shows you used my tutorial as a guideline or as inspiration. I'd love that. Thanks graphic-ers.

Flower (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/atf.png)
1: Open up Blank File. Mine was 475 vs 256. But you can stretch the textures or anything to be bigger or smaller.
2: Place Texture 1 down. Then Texture 2 and set it to Color Burn. Texture 3 and set it to Lighten. Then finally Texture 4 and set it to Soft Light.
3: Now before we continue with anything else, have your pictures picked out. Open up a blank file. Mine was 303 vs 175. But do anything you want. Now place the pictures on the blank file and make your blend, color, sharpen, etc.
4: Place the blend on the textures file. Place a drop shadow on the picture.
I used:
Size: 5
Distance: 1
Opacity: 100
Angle: 30
But do whatever. This is yours not mine. Now take Box 1 and Box 2 and place them at the top and bottom of the blend. Make sure the boxes are placed BEHIND the blend. Drop shadow again the same as before.
5: Now take Brush 1 and place it wherever you like. I put it at the end of the blend. It should be behind the blend layer.
6: Take the flower and place it above the blend. Wherever you like just make sure it's not covering much of the blend. Also add a drop shadow.
7: Take Brush 2 and place it around the flower. It should be behind the blend and flower.
Fairly easy. Now add text and all that jazz.

RGB: 15, 1.34, 255
3: Now take your second picture and make three icons with it. Also place them under the coloring so they would have the same coloring as the first. Add a drop shadow.
4: Now take the first picture again and resize it to about half the size as the first. Set it to darken. Or if you're really good cut it. If you set it to darken and any of the picture is NOT hitting just the white background then make a new layer below the picture and color in white wherever it isn't the white so it doesn't look transparent.
5: Take texture 1 set it to lighten and place it whenever you think your text will be. I placed it right below the icons and coloring so it wouldn't hit the icons. Then text texture 2 and set it to lighten make sure it's on top of everything.
6: Now for text. Take your main text. In this case it would be "iambreakingout" I used the font karabinE. But use what you like. Make sure the text is black. Now place the text under texture 2 and add a white outline to the text. For the 2nd text I used Pea Missy Cursive and placed it over the texture 2 but since the text is white it wouldn't make a difference. Add a drop shadow under both. Make sure the distance on the main text is bigger than the outline.
7: Last step. Take the brush and pick out one smiley face and erase the circle around it then paste it on in black. Place it under the 2nd texture and add a drop shadow.
And viola I told you it was easy.

Ok now this (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/wallpapers/ashmk.png) wallpaper.
What you'll need:
Texture 1 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/1t.png)
Texture 2 (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/2t.png)

White Bar
(http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/7t.png)
1: Open up a blank canvas. 800 vs 600. Place Tex 1 down. Then tex 2 and set it to Lighten. Now tex 3 and set it to lighten. Same with tex 3,4,5 and set to lighten.
2: Now depending on your pictures you can do this step now or after you place your pictures. It's a coloring for the background but on the MKA one it's the coloring for the pictures too.
Levels
RGB: 26, 30, 255
Red: 0, 0.70, 245
Green: 0, 0.90, 255
Duplicate the levels so you have a total of 3 layers of levels.
Hue/Saturation Layer;
Master Hue: +5
Reds Saturation: +30
Yellows Lightness: +100
3: Add your pictures. I'd say unless you're an awesome cutter, get psds.
Try psdelightful. (http://www.majestic-skies.net/psdelightful/index.php)
Get three pictures and adjust the sizes from biggest to smallest. Add a drop shadow unless you don't want to.
4: Add your white line/bar thing and get ready for the text. I used Landliebe (main) and Zebra (small) Drop shadow everything.
5: Now go to a fansite or something and get another picture then since most likely it won't be the same coloring, unless it is, I'd say put it in black and white then place the Frame around it. Then add a drop shadow. And you're done. See simple.

1: Open blank canvas; 500 vs 270. Put Tex 1 down then Tex 2 and set it to Lighten. Tex 3 then and set it to Lighten as well. Tex 3, put it at the bottom of the canvas and set it to multiply. Finally Tex 5 and set it to Lighten as well.
2: Open a new fill layer; 88b8e9; color burn.
3: Take the brush, make sure its white, and place two of them on the left and right sides of the canvas. You may have to resize them if needed. Add a drop shadow.
4: Now take your blend and paste one near the top where it should be just blue. After that add a black gradient at the bottom then set the image to lighten.
5: Place the blend again atop the other blend and move it over and down so you can still see the lightened blend.
6: Now put text. I used Pea Amy*Rica Script and Times New Roman.
And you're done.

4: Then finally take the Notepad/Notebook and paste it on the bottom of where your pictures will be.
5: Now take your photos and size them so the colored one is smaller than the b&w one. Make sure that they are same height. Add a drop shadow to the colored photo. And then merge them together and then add a drop shadow to them merged.
6: Then take another photo from the same photoshoot or whatever you wish and place it on the notepad. Add a drop shadow and a gradient if you wish. Tilt it to +5. Make sure you place it BEHIND the bigger photos.

Brush (It's White) (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/dm6.png)
1: Open 800 vs 600 canvas. Paste the Canvas I provided. Now I wanted some color to it but if you don't want any color then don't worry and go on to step 2. Take the color you want and set it to color burn.
2: Open the scratch and duplicate. Set the first one to Lighten the second to Screen. Now if you want the color all over then take your fill layer and place it above it. make sure it's a really light color if you're placing it on top of this layer.
3: Place the light texture wherever you feel is going to look nice. Usually around where the picture will be.
4: Place the Paper down. Wherever you wish. Now take your photo. Only one..well you can do two, but I used one. Duplicate them and put them next to each other on the Paper. Duplicate them. Resize them smaller. Then duplicate again and resize even smaller. Ok, make sure you didn't merge them together yet. On the biggest of the group of pictures have one of the pictures in B&W. Then the 2nd biggest both in color. Then finally the smallest of them all have both in B&W then you can merge them together. Add drop shadows. And remember you can change the order of the pictures.
5: Take the Sky stock and place as the last of the pictures duplicated. Of course you can just duplicate the biggest of the pictures and make it the smallest which I've done because it didn't look right. Add drop shadow. Now take the brush and place it behind the pictures and paper. Put it somewhere around the pictures.
6: Text. You're done.

1: Paste the first texture then the second on top. Set it to hard light.
2: Ok, you can place the brushes on the canvas. Place them wherever you wish. You can move them later to adjust. The Brushes are white so you may not see them. I set Brush 1 to Soft Light.
3: Add the picture you are going to use in the frame. Turn it black and white. Add a drop shadow to the black and white picture and the frame.
4: Now add your other pictures. I added a white outline/stroke and drop shadow. If you do not want a rounded outline, which I didn't, I created my own outline. You outline the picture then added a white fill layer. Then made it bigger and of course...added a drop shadow to it. The outline may make no sense, I can't really explain it.
5: Take the Light Texture and set it to lighten. Add the text on top of Brush 2 and on the b&w picture. Done.

1: Open up the canvas. Place the texture over and set it to multiply.
2: Open up the lines and place them wherever you wish on the canvas.
3: Take the ripped paper and if you want change the color to match whatever you are using. Place it to be the center of where everything will be. It needs to be seen under everything.
4: Make a blend. 344 vs 200 is what I did. Place it on the canvas and add a drop shadow.
5: Duplicate your blend and reverse it so it's upside down. Then resize it and place it in the frame. Add a drop shadow to the frame and little blend.
6: Now place the white box thing whatever it is and add text. I used the text:
ultravioleta
realistic (feniksas4)
Adobe Caslon Pro
And you're down.

What You'll Need:
Canvas (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/AUntitled-1copy.png)
Cardboard stock (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/AUntitled-2copy.png)

Paint (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/AUntitled-6copy.png)
1: Open Canvas. Then place the cardboard stock over top of it. You can change the color, obviously. I've said that a lot and I'm gonna tell you how. You can use many methods but what seems easiest for almost everything I change colors is photo filter. Set it to the color you want and put the density at the highest. Then if it's too bright I use levels and make it darker. Ok the end on changing colors.
2: Place the black box in the middle of the canvas. You can change it's position later.
3: Open up your pictures. I suggest you use ones with white backgrounds or even the same color. If not then you don't need to do the next step unless you have your own ideas. After you place your picture/blend down over the black box you duplicate it and resize it so it's smaller. Set it to darken and 30% opacity. Sometimes you don't have to set the opacity lower and sometimes you don't just on your judgment. Add drop shadow.
4: Place the notebook paper over your picture and set it to darken or multiply then erase the parts that are over the faces and can be see other than on the picture.
5: Get pictures from the same photo shoot and I suggest they be head shots. Crop and resize them to be 91 vs 109. Do about four photos then place them equally apart from each other on the canvas. After that merge the head shots together and flip them while turning them to b&w. After positioned add a drop shadow.
6: Place the paint strip down. If it's too transparent for you duplicate it. Then add text.
Whoever posts there result for this one first will be the other example because basically...I'm too lazy to create another example.

4: Take the orange light and place it wherever you like I put it on the wall twice. Once over near the strips of photos then one on the bigger photos.
5: Put the white box near where the pictures are ending. Just do what you want with it.
6: Put down the Paper then put the 2nd one on top of it and set it to Exclusion.
7: Now take your photo and place the colored one on the paper then duplicate it and move it down so there is a space between the two then turn it to black and white.
8: Place the tiny paper down and duplicate it twice so we have a total of three tiny papers. Now place photos under them.
9: Take the 3rd scratch and just set it to lighten.
10: Add another photo and make it black and it white then duplicate and resize it. Then if you want add a frame and then take the globe light and set it to lighten over top of it.
11: Put the little text brush on the white box then change the opacity to about 25-30%
12: Add text.

2: Take the light texture and place it between the standing photos set it to lighten. Erase parts that are hitting the bodies.
3: Take the stock and place it wherever you like.
4: Now place the tiny text down. Erase parts if you want it smaller.
5: Add the smiley face and black bar and text. You're done. It's really simple.

1: Open up a blank canvas 450 vs 225 about. And create a blend. Color it, unless of course you wouldn't like it. If you want to, use some of mine they are fairly easy.
2: Duplicate your blend after it is merged and place it at the bottom of the blend with just the eyes/top of the blend showing. Now turn it black and white.
3: Take the black bar and place it in between the blend and the duplicated blend.
4: Take the ripped newspaper whatever it is and place it in the above the duplicated blend. Add a drop shadow then add the fireworks and set it to lighten.
5: Take your stock, add a drop shadow, and place it above the ripped newspaper.
6: Add your text if you want any then place the blue/red light texture and set it to lighten.
7: Finally place the orange light texture. I placed it over the stock, news paper and fireworks.
8: Place your white gradient. You won't have to do anything to it. Just make sure it's at all the way touching the bottom of the blend. Then add the top gradient. I've used pink, red and blue so you can use the one I provided or make your own and set it to lighten or screen and lower the opacity if needed.
9: Add +40 contrast and you're done.

Globe Light (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/jj9.png)
1: Open up your Canvas Graph Paper. The put the circles on top and set it to multiply. Then take the text and place it where ever you hope to put the big photo that you will have to cut. Set that to multiply as well.
2: Create your mini blend. The size I used was 308 vs 151. Do not close the file after you finish it and place it on the canvas. After you've colored the blend and placed it on the canvas. Go back to the blend and copy each of the singular photos. Resize them so they are small and then place them on the darkest area of your original blend and set it to lighten. Then turn it b&w. Do this for every single photo in your blend.
3: Put the flower in. Change the color by using photo filter or hue/saturation.
4: Color your bigger photo then place it on the canvas. Cut it. If you aren't very good with cutting you can try something different or ask for help. I'm not the best at it but I can do it fairly well. After you cut it. Duplicate and resize. Then convert to b&w.
5: Place the white canvas; set to multiply. Then the first scratch; screen. And the second scratch; screen. Erase any that goes over the face.
6: Add +45 Contrast.
7: Place the orange light at the bottom near your blend. Set it to lighten. Now place the globe light over the big cut photo. Lighten as well.
8: Add your text. I used Century for the small text and Pea Steph for the larger font.

This is fairly simple. Add your own twists please.
What You'll Need:
Graph Paper (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/bw1.png)
Polka Dots (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/bw2.png)

Black Scratch (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/bw6.png)
White Scratch (http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj161/zoommx3/pfs%20tutorial/bw7.png)
1: Open up the Graph Paper. Place the polka dots on top and set to multiply. Now repeat with the text, guitar and circles. Put them WHEREVER you wish.
2: One thing good about this wallpaper is you can have pictures of different tones and no one will notice that much because it's going to be in b&w. You do not need to change it to b&w but it looks much better. Ok so how I blended the photos is I used the Lasso Tool and set Feather to 10 px. Do this with numerous pictures, BEFORE you change them to b&w. Add small and big photos for variety.
3: Add your text and a light texture, IF YOU WANT. I used Arial Black for the big letters and Pea Eshley (on the joe jonas wall) for the little text.
4: Add your black scratch set it to lighten. Now the white. Set it to multiply 40%.
5: Now here may be a bit difficult for you if you do not know what it is. For photoshop I know you can go to filter>render>light effects. Choose the omni one and play with the settings. For those of you who do not have that setting. Create a black fill layer. Play with the opacity it's really on how much you'll want to be pretty dark or not. Then take a Soft Round Brush, change the color to white, and make it as big as you want to be lighter and place it on the same canvas. It should create that type of effect.
6: Flatten and sharpen. Add your border. And if you want, which I actually did is I added the scratch now but you can do it back in step 4 if you'd like.

3: Take the writing and set it in the top right corner. Screen 100%
4: Place the draw flowers down. Then the real flower.
5: Set the stock down wherever you like and set to multiply. Then duplicate and set to darken.
6: Place down the small canvas and add a drop shadow. Make sure the opacity of the drop shadow is 50%
7: Set down your pictures. Do them similar to mine or not. Now outline half of each of the big pictures and set the same pink as the draw flowers and set to lighten.
8: Paste 1st white scratch, multiply 100% Black scratch, screen 100% 2nd white scratch, darken 100% 3rd white scratch, darken 100%
9: Put down the word bubble and add your text. Now before flattening. Merge everything BUT the text and word bubble. Then sharpen. Then you can flatten.

-note-
sharpen....a lot. If they eyes are really pretty sharpen those extra.
What You'll Need:

Black Gradient Map Thing (http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr16/lalalalaurennn/tutorials/dont4.png)
-I didn't want to look for the text so find your own if you want-
1: Use pictures with a white background if you want to be easy on yourself. I just did because one, it was for a contest and there was a white background. Not saying though if you use a white background there won't be any cutting because you will need to cut a little bit for blending them. But for now don't worry about that. Get your first picture. Color it and paste on your 500 vs 250 canvas. I'd suggest brighter colors. Sharpen, as mentioned before.
2: Duplicate your first picture. Resize and flip it so it's facing the opposite way. Convert it to b&w.
3: Get two other photos and color them. Paste them on the canvas and change the opacity to 50%. You don't have to even add theses but, do what you wish. Sharpen and all that jazz.
4: Paste the Brush and put it behind all the photos. Erase some it's behind the lowered opacity photos.
5: I added +20-50 contrast if I needed.
6: Open a new blank layer. Take a soft round brush. Size it so it's big enough that it would be less than the size of the face of the photo. Set the layer to lighten to begin with then pick two colors. Depending on the photos color scheme I picked a blue and purple but you can do whatever you want. Red often looks nice. Brush that across the part where the b&w photo and main photo intercept. Then I added two gray brush strokes to parts of the light. After that I grouped them, if you don't know what this is...don't even worry about it. (hope this made sense)
7: Take the first scratch and set to multiply. Then place the black scratch and set to screen. Then the last white scratch and multiply again.
8: Place the black gradient map thing and drag it to the bottom of your canvas. Lower the opacity if you want.
9: I'd suggest sharpening it all over one more time but do what you want. Add text and your own twists and your done.

Pink/Blue (http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr16/lalalalaurennn/tutorials/Untitled-9.png)
1: Create a blank canvas of 440 vs 230 or whatever size you like. Create your blend. I suggest only using 1-3 pictures for the entire blend and resizing/flipping them around. It's interesting and usually pretty.
2: Turn it black and white then if you want the black and white to be interesting either add contrast and brightness or use your own methods of making the pictures look nice. Sharpen it now.
3: Take the pink texture and set it to lighten or screen. On some of the examples I used both screen and lighten. I duplicated it and set it twice. Use the top part of the pink where you can see some of the green and orange part.
4: Now take the multicolored texture and place it at the bottom of the canvas and set it to lighten. Use your lasso tool, feather 10px, and erase parts that are too bright on the pictures.
5: Place the text on the bottom and set it to screen, as well with the lines.
6: The small texture place it so it's touching the bottom but anywhere on the bottom you like. Set it to Lighten.
7: Take the red texture and set it to Soft Light from 55-100% opacity.
8: The orangey/blue just place right on top and take your lasso again and erase the white line in it. Set it to Lighten.
9: Now take the green and place it to you can see the bright spark of green. Set it to lighten and add +60 Brightness and +100 contrast. Merge it down on the green.
10: Add the pink/blue at the very top so just the beginning of the head gets that color. Set it to lighten.
11: Erase with the lasso tool what you don't like on the blend and add text.
If you want to know how to do the little blend that I placed on the canvas, let me know.

Blue Gradient (SAVE THIS) (http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr16/lalalalaurennn/tutorials/021109/Untitled-9copy.png)
1: First of all, create your blend. Color it sharpen and everything else you need to prepare. I used a 500 vs 230 canvas.
2: After creating your interest. Place the mini text brush provided or add your own. Set this one to multiply.
3: Place the lines and set them to darken. Erase parts on everything else on that is covering or distracting something
4: Next place the canvas light. Resize it but not a whole lot and place it so the purpleish green yellow parts show. Set that to lighten.
5: Now place the circle light, may have to resize but probably not, at the BOTTOM of the canvas so just the red parts and what not show. Set that to lighten as well.
6: Take the same circle light but now place the bottom half of it at the TOP. Set that to lighten and do not put it so it's half way down the canvas.
7: Add the white light and set it to lighten 63ish%
8: Add the circle scratch. Screen 100% And do the exact same with the white scratch except add two extra layers of brightness/contrast the first; brightness: -120 contrast: +57. the second brightness: -50. Repeat what you did for the circle scratch for the black as well.
9: The final step is take the blue gradient and set it at the bottom of the canvas. Put it on saturation.
10: Add text, stock, whatever else you like and YOU'RE DONE.
