Creating this layout:
I used the font, The Long and The Short of It and typed the word LOVE in capitals. Next I rastized/simplified the layer and used the transform tool to make the text larger. Next I cut out just the letter O which became the frame for my photo. I reduced the size of the remaining letters and placed the that layer on top of the O layer to form the word. I used an inky brush from the Aine kit by Foxysquirrell to create a mask to clip the photo to. I then used an yellow starry overlay to sit on top of the letter O. I then used the Color Picker tool to sample the yellow/gold colour from one of the stars and used this colour to create a stroke outline around the letters. I finished off by using some clusters by Natali Design.
