Welcome To MyFreeWebTemplates.info Photoshop Tutorials Area - Santa Hat

#1: Create a new document, mine was 300x300 and fill it with a background color, mine was #CCCCCC

#2: Create a new layer (SHIFT+CTRL+N)

#3: Fill the layer with a "Reflected-Gradient". Darker on the outside.




#4: Now too make it point at the top, do 'Edit>Transform>Perspective'




#5: Too make a wavy like appearance, do the following: 'Filter>Distort>Shear' and drag the ball around in 2 places like shown.




#6: Create a new layer (SHIFT+CTRL+N) and make a small white ball on top of the hat.

#7: Now too add a fluffy effect, do Filter>Distort>Ripple and slide the bar over between %75 and
%115 (Now it should look somewhat like the image below)




#8: Now for the fluffy bottom, create a white rectangle, for the fluffy effect here,
Filter>Distort>Ripper and I had my settings on %185


Now you are all done. Congratulations on making a simple santa hat!
