Jewel overlayed text

For this tutorial you'll need psp 7. Get it from Jasc.com (download trial version)
Get Superbladepro here if you do not have it.
Download font Caligula here
Gold and Silver preset download here Extract these files in your preset or Environment and texture folder. It should be something like C:\Program Files\Jasc Software Inc\Paint Shop Pro 7\Presets

Ok let's begin!
Open new image with these settings.


Now select Text tool from vertical tool bar. Type Welcome with these settings. I used font Caligula. You can choose any desired font or the one you've downloaded. Keep color white or #DED3B6 to get good golden color.



Now your image should look like this. You can see marching ants. Don't deselect it. Make similar two copies. Keep one aside for later use.

Now Click on Effects - Superbladepro


Now as shown in pic,
No 1 - Click to select the bladepro preset from your browser. Now a dialog box will pop open select D_gold shine.q9q or Gold shiny.q9q preset from your preset folder. Keep settings as default.
No 2 - Shows the preset name it should be D_gold shine.q9q or the other one.
No 3 - Click ok.



Now your text should look like this. (If you need to make text little lighter then click on top menu Color Adjust - Brightness/Contrast and adjust it according to your need.)
Note: If your text does not look good golden try #DED3B6 color on text instead of white.



Now keep this image aside.

Ok now get the spare (second copy) of text Welcome with marching ant which you've already made earlier.
Now let's add another bladepro on it. Click on Effects - Superbladepro
Now browse for new preset BullianWhite.q9q in your preset folder and click ok. (Please refer previous pic 4 & 5 for it)
Now your text should look like this



Now click on top menu Color Adjust - Brightness/Contrast and keep settings like this


Now copy and paste it as new image. Edit - copy and Paste as new image.

Ok now fun part begins.


Now copy the top half of the sliver text and paste it on Gold text. Your text should look like this.


That's it hope you enjoyed this tutorial.
