You will need coloured glass balls in the Colors you want to use
There are several tutorials on the web for creating the glass balls or
you can download this set.

You will need Eye Candy 3 Glass Filter Plug-in.

Note: Save often


1. Create a new raster image & add a new raster layer.

2. Draw out your shapes, one shape per layer & 1 layer for the flower centre
    - for this image i drew 1 leaf then 1 flower then the flower centre = 3 layers

3. Take 1 glass ball and reduce it to a small size

4. Copy the glass ball & paste it along the edge of each shape

5. Continue pasting (control+E) till you complete each shape on each layer
    - don't go all over the place or it won't line up

6. For the centre of the flower take a glass ball & reduce it to the size of the
centre of your flower

7. Apply these settings to each layer using the Eye Candy Filter Plug-in
    Bevel Width 20, Bevel Shape Mesa, Flaw Spacing 25, Flaw Thickness 33,
Opacity 55, Refraction 14,
    Color #DADADA, Highlight Brightness 100, Highlight Sharpness 92,
Lighting Direction 127, Lighting Inclination 57
    - changing the color will change the color of your glass balls

8. Create a new raster image & add a new raster layer.

9. Copy your leaf layer

10. Paste it on the new layer anywhere

11. Defloat & crop

12. With the deformation tool move it into the desired position or use the rotate,
mirror & flip options

13. Create a new raster layer & repeat steps 10, 11 & 12

14. Continue these steps on new layers till all your leaves are in place on their
separate layers

15. Once you have created all the leaf layers make Layer 1 invisible & merge
all the leaf layers

16. Add a drop shadow either to the existing layer or on a separate layer

17. Remove the invisablity of Layer 1.

18. Add a new raster layer above the leaf  layer

19. Return to your flower & flower centre images & make all other layers invisible

20. Add a drop shadow to the flower centre.

21. Merge the flower & flower centre.

22. Copy your flower layer & paste it on the new layer anywhere
or in the desired spot
23. Defloat & crop

24. With the deformation tool move it into the desired position or use the rotate,
mirror & flip options
