Retro boy poster

| Original |
 |
| I first changed the colour by altering the colour curves. Then, I added a solid purple layer on top of the image. I lowered the opacity and changed the layer style to make it just a hint of purple. |
 |
| I blurred the outer parts of the image by creating a new layer and adding a gauzian blur on top of it. I then erased the centre of the blurry layer so that the centre wasn't blurred |
 |
| I added in some purple dots using a soft brush then lowered the opacity so they weren't so prominent. They are supposed to imitate the light exposure in an old photograph. To finish, I added a pattern overlay of crumpled paper to add some texture to the final image. |

Layer styles
 |
| Original |
 |
| Added crumpled paper pattern overlay to the purple background |
 |
| Added a thin dark purple stoke to the outside of the lettering |
 |
| Added shadows to the text such as drop, inner and outer. The shadows make the text appear 3D and appears to stand off the page more |
 |
| Added gradient to the colour of the word |
 |
| Embossed and bevelled the word, plus added a pattern overlay to create texture |
 |
| Here I've made the basic shapes using the marquee and lasso tool. Then using the colour replicator and fill tool in added the colour. |
 |
| Then I went on to add the little flower shapes. I made these by using the lasso tool and an elliptical marquee. After making on petal I just copied in numerous times and rotated them to make the finished flower. |
 |
| All the shapes have been made, including the rainbow. This was made using circles and cropping them, and using strokes on the outside of the circles to create multiple rings. |
Finished
 |
| Original is on the left. I also add textures using pattern overlay to most of the shapes. These varied from crumpled paper to grunge. |
