i made this for someone who asked me if i could create a christmas tree using some snowflake brushes

for anyone who wants to try this, i have a few suggestions ... (1) have a triangle outline when you are beginning; (2) place the top snowflake, the bottom middle, and bottom corners, first; (3) pick one tiny snowflake to use at the end to fill in the "holes;" and (4) try to keep all of the same kind of snowflake on the same layer. that way when you need to go back to delete or reposition a snowflake you don't have to click through 100 layers

ETA: thanks to Erica, i will never again click through layer after layer ... all you have to do is CTRL/click on a portion of your layout and ps highlights the correct layer in the layers palette!!!

i could hug her!!
