Woo-hoo! Tutorial! Here we go!

Going from to or



have base cropped and ready:


duplicate, set to multiply once, at 50% (% depends on brightness/darkness of picture)
duplicate base, drag to top, set to screen 100%
duplicate base, drag to top set to soft light 75%
merge visible
new layer, fill with #060C38, set to exclusion
duplicate base drag to top set to lighten
take gradient, set to exclusion:


duplicate base, drag to top set to soft light 100%
duplicate base again, drag to top, set to screen at 35%
duplicate base again, drag to top set to soft light 100%
blur the top soft light layer. i did gaussian blur at 2.0
new layer fill with #2A77C6 , set to screen at 35%
i added a box in #2DAFBA, added some tiny text and the word 'sweet' in Luna font, and you're done!

To get the second icon effect, I just added some red gradient at Screen at 75% Here's the gradient:


Would love to see what anyone made using this tutorial. Let me know if you get a little confused. Have fun!

Thanks! I loved the colors in the Disney movie, so I thought I'd make an icon from it.
