step 4 of 6

A linear gradient in a new layer was added using the gradient overlay before. It was set to soft light. colors are:
from left to right
#0A00B2 blue
#25C368 green
#EDD96C golden
#FF6F6F pink

Creation of Heart Bokeh: Step 4

step 5 of 6

A new set was created underneath the gradient layer.
Three layers were created at first for using the heart brush:
1. 300-400 pixels
2. 500-600 pixels gaussian blur of 20 pixels
3. 100-150 pixels gaussian blur of 5 pixels

Then the layers were merged together. The whole document is 2000x1500.

step 6 of 6

The merged layer was duplicated and Gaussian blurred at 2.0 pixels. A render>cloud was used as the layer mask set to color dodge. Some glows were added using white soft brush. A noise gradient has been added. Then all the layer duplicated and merged. It was then given a effect of Gaussian blur 5.0 pixels.
