Kate Winslet tutorial

My first full icon tutorial!

**picture heavy
**used PSP8


This is similar to lady_maethoriel's, I just had to do it a different way.

Ok so first start off with this 100 x 100 and croped it to 70 x 70,

Then, Ctrl+N (New) and make a 100 x 100 plain. Copy the 70 x 70 and paste as New Layer. Now use you selection tool Image hosted by Photobucket.com and select the picture:

Then Selections > Modify > Expand

Ste it to 5. Now just chose a color and fill it in the space.

Now, here is where I changed it up. I cropped the picture and made another new 100 x 100, #1D7DB9.

Copy and paste as New Layer of Kate onto the 100 x 100. Use the move tool Image hosted by Photobucket.com to rotate the picture and place it in the corner.

Now you have your base to play around with. I used some textures and brushes from outside_icons (all credits go to makers):
