Ok, let's begin:

Open a new canvas, size 1024 x 400.

Choose a light color for your foreground,

and a dark color for the background from your image.

Fill the canvas with the dark color.

Go to Layers --> New Raster Layer.

Fill this layer with the light color.

Go to Layers --> Load/Save Mask -->

Load Mask From Disk.

Find the "speciaalno2" mask,

apply with these settings:

Delete the mask layer in in your Layer Palette

and reply "yes" to the question.

Go to Layers --> Merge --> Merge All

Go to Effects --> Image Effects --> Seamless Tiles

with these settings:

Go to your Preset Shape Tools and find the

"Angels valentine 2" shape.

Your foreground color should be light

and the background dark.

Draw the shape from the top left to

the bottom right of the canvas.

Deselect by activating the Mover Tool again.

Go to Layers --> Merge --> Merge All.

Activate your image again, duplicate it (Shift D)

and close the original.

Reduce the size to 300 pixels high.

Go to the Preset Shapes Tools, find the Hexagon Shape

and apply these settings:

( The Line Style is Solid)

Change the colors around in the Color Palette

so that the dark color is the foreground color

and the light color is now the background color.

Draw a shape from the top left to the

bottom right corners over the image.

Make sure you are on the vector layer in the Layers Palette!

Hold the Shift key on the keyboard down

and select the four corners

of the image (NOT the hexagon)with your Magic Wand.

You will have marching ants now around the hexagon.

Go to your Layers Palette and promote

your background layer to

a raster layer.

Press the Delete key

and Deselect ( Shift +D)

In your Layers Palette:

Right-click on the Vector layer

and Convert to Raster layer.

Choose your Magic Wand and click inside

the image.

Hit the Delete Key while you're still on

the vector layer!!!

Merge all layers

Your image should now look like this:

Copy your image and paste it as a

new layer onto your canvas

Position the image where you want it.

Go to your Layers Palette and change the

Blende Mode of this layer to " Multiply"

Merge All layers

Add a new raster layer.

Add your watermark or name.

Merge all layers, and you're done!
