My Summer Holiday Project #1: Part 4/35

Finally another tutorial finished in my Vintage and Retro Photoshop Tutorials series!

I started work on this collage quite a while ago but considering recent events I guess it’s a tribute to the late, great Bettie Page.

This is the tutorial I worked from, again I used the techniques in the tutorial to make my own composition. This tutorial was fun but felt quite similar to the tutorial I worked through for Part 1 but with less grunge factor.

I used stock from heaps of places for this one, including reusing some bits from previous tutorials:

• Paper background texture from fudgegraphics Grunge Paper set.
• Bettie Page was just an old image I found on my computer.
• Large Rose from here.
• Having trouble finding the Rose Garden image link, I just Google image searched to find something.
• Flamingos from here.
• Cane/Drum Major Mace from here.
• Gingham pattern from Dreamstime.
• Starburst shape from DeviantArt.
• Brushes used Inobscuro Ink, Splatter Brushes, Watercolour II, Cloud Brushes & more Clouds

Here’s Part 1, Part 2 & Part 3.
