I have posted the first part of of making your very own Valentines Day cards here. This is concluding part of the tutorial.

This is how the card looks after the first part of the tutorial.




Step 38 : I have clicked on one of the arrows.








Step 47 : Press Delete. The inside of the circle is deleted. Also click off the eye icon where the red arrow points to. Otherwise you will be seeing a black patch behind the arrow.



Step 51 : Choose this Gradient in the Gradient Editor shown aw a gradient towards the tail of the arrow.

Step 52 : Now click the Brush Tool.

Step 53 : As you brush you will see a black patch forming on the Layer Mask.

Step 54 : This is how the Arrow looks after a part of the has been brushed away.

Step 55 : In the Layers pallette change the Blend Mode to Lighten from the dropdown menu. Click where the red arrow points to access the menu.

This is how the card looks.

Step 56 : Click on the Bakground Layer. You can leave it white or you can add an image or you can add a Gradient.You can add a gradient background like this. How it can be done is explained here.
You can add some more text if you want and there you are.
