create a new layer and open up your galaxy brushes.
Change the color to whatever color you want your galaxies to be and brush them on the screen. I had my brushes at 2500
create a new layer and change your brushes to the astral brush
then I chose a size (not 2500) for my butterfly and the base color I wanted it)
Then I made 3 more layers, and put the butterfly in the same place with 3 other colors
Then I clicked on each butterfly layer and added a layer mask.
changed my brushes back to the default and selected a 65 soft edge brush and started at the top layer, panted black over anything of that color I didn't want (to mask it). Then I moved on to the next layer down and did the same thing.
see 2nd part for final results... .. It's Permie's world, we just live in it! ~CDS

Then I "Merged down" all the butterfly layers so the butterfly was one layer, the galaxy was one layer and the background was one layer. Making sure I was on the butterfly layer, I selected the butterfly and copied/pasted it so that there were two.
Then I switched to the "move" tool and moved it over to the right more and then flipped it.
then I flattened it, used a Nik color contrast filter and saved
and result

They were on the very first page when I did a search.But when I mouse-hovered over the icon, it said 'half tone brushes' so I didn't even click on it. lol...I don't even know what "half tone" is supposed to signify. cfpackerfan wrote in post #5531637 I also learned that I need to go to masking school. I'm in the help section of PS, and there is too much that is going over my head.I bet if I would learn to use masks, it would make life easier, huh? I use masks for everything. Wu taught me about them...but I use them on my templates (if a photo doesn't work "just right" under a frame, I mask it)....I use them for everything. .. It's Permie's world, we just live in it! ~CDS

Black masks and white unmasks (or fixes mistakes in black masks) also, grey does a partial mask. I think I just realized why I don't know much about masking.

Thank you SO much for doing that. I think I just realized why I don't know much about masking. In Elements it wasn't necessary to learn it (I can't remember why... I just never did) and Scott Kelby doesn't talk about it AT ALL in his Cs2 book. How weird is that?! I just tried to look it up, and it's NOT IN THERE. And this is my favorite Cs2 book. you're welcome. And very weird that he doesn't talk about it in that book. I have his CS3 book but like I said, I learned to mask from Wu and it's been invaluable (I had a mask option from the download "hidden tools to photoshop elements"). ..
