MAKING MINI BLENDS

We want to learn how to make a mini blend, using paint shop pro.

1. Start by finding 2 or more picture you want to make a blend with. A picture is good that can be easily blended. The resolution must be good. Here are my pictures:



2. Open PSP Program. then browse your desired images and open up them. Now you have to make a blank document (), then copy both of your images and paste them as a new layer in the blank document.(I use 500-200 Pixel for mini blends)




3. Now resize each picture and just move each layer and put them in a way you wanna blend together! ... Here's how I have arranged them.



4. Then you have to start erasing () some parts that are useless in the top layer. So its somehow blended with its below image. (I use 50% hardness, 15% Opacity for the eraser tool)



5. Now its time to add some brushes, scripts, effects, text & more to the layout. If you wanna use brushes on your blend, I recommend you to make a new raster layer(), then add your brushes on the new layer, so it is easier to remove them later if nedded ! You can download brushes and scripts from different websites and then import them into paint shop pro.

6. Hope the tutorial was useful.
