Hello

Today we will continue with the 100 Marathon Tutorials
For our newest members this means that each day i will add a new tutorial.
This is Tutorial 53

This is my final result:



So let's start.
Create a new document with a white background.the size should
be 760 x 770 px.
Create a new layer by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Alt+N in the same time.

Now with your Rectangle Tool create a simple Shape



Select Ellipse Tool and create a small Circle and place it on the left top side



We will not use this small circle in our layout. I will try to make some rounded corners.
You will see in the following steps

Press on The Layer Thumbnail ( circle layer )



Your circle will have a selection around it. Now press on CTRL+SHIFT+I
This will inverse the selection

Now select the rectangle layer



Go to Layer > Rasterize > Shape

Grab the Eraser Tool and start deleting the corner ( see the next image for example - I have zoomed in the image to see better what i am doing)



Press on CTRL+D to deselect
After you delete the corner you should have something like this:



Then you can hide the red circle and this is my result



Make a selection with Rectangular marquee Tool on the black rectangle



Then hit delete on your keyboard, and press CTRL+D to deselect



Now with the same technique as above change the following corners to this nice looking round corners



Now add the following layer styles







This is my result:



Duplicate this layer ( press CTRL+J )
GO to Edit > Transform > Flip Horizontal
Then go to Edit > Transform > Flip Vertical

With your down arrow key i will place this new layer as above ( please note that i have changed the color alone - so you can see better )



Now apply the following layer styles:







This is my result



Now we will add some text buttons and some stock photos



Next step is to select the Line Tool and to create over 15 lines ( set the Weight to 1 pixel ) . please place the lines like in the following image



Select all the layers with lines and press CTRL+E
This will merge all the layers

Select this layer and go to Edit > Transform > Warp and use the following settings



Then hit Enter and this will be your result



Now press on Add layer mask



Select Gradient Tool and draw a line from bottom to top. in the next image you will see the result and also the way you should draw the line with gradient tool



Select the blue shape layer. Make a selection like mine with Rectangular marquee tool



One more time be sure you have selected the blue layer
Go to Layer > new > layer via copy

Now go to Edit > transform > rotate 180 and with your arrow keys place this piece of rectangle like in the next image



Then drag the layer before the background layer and add the following layer styles





Then add some text





Create a new layer and select Custom Shape Tool
Choose the Arrow 6 custom shape



Then make 3 different shapes and place them like in the next image



Create a new layer , select Brush tool , find a star brush and make some simple start on your layout. This is my final image
