Make skin look perfect in one-click with these AI-powered Photoshop actions.
Fill this selection with black (Shift+F5). Then choose Edit-Transform-Flip Vertical and move this shadow under the tree bottom.
Step 54
Lower opacity to 60% then apply Gaussian Blur with 3 px (Filter-Blur-Gaussian Blur):
On Filter layer mask use soft black brush to remove blur effect at the part near the tree bottom to keep the hard look for it:
Step 55
Add layer mask to shadow layer and remove the top of it:
Step 56
I used Curves to brighten the tree:
Step 57
Add a Color Balance layer to give the tree some yellow:
Step 58
To add more light to the tree, I used a new layer and take brush with color #fab3b3, opacity and flow 25-35%. Paint along the tree sides as I did below:
Step 59
Make a new layer with same settings in step 10. Use Dodge and Burn Tool to create more contrast on the tree:
Step 60
It's time for most interesting parts of the tutorial - making a heart from branches. Open branches 3 stock. First use your own method to cut out the branches from background:
Use Lasso Tool to take a part from isolated branches and put it above the tree. I used Warp Tool to bend it:
Step 61
Use different parts from branches stock to put on the tree following a heart shape, use Warp Tool or Puppet Warp Tool if needed . I used layer mask to remove any unwanted parts. You don't need to create exactly like mine but can take it as a reference:
I used 15 layers for this branches heart.
Step 62
Group all heart branches layers and name them (I called them from 1 to 15). I used Dodge Tool with same way in previous steps to brighten some parts that are too dark:
Step 63
Make a new layer on the top of these branches layers (within this group). Use hard black brush, 1 px and color #1a142d to make some branches parts more visible:
Step 64
Add a Curves layer within this group to brighten this heart:
I used brush on Curves layer mask to clear some parts below:
Step 65
Use Color Balance to give some yellow to the branches:
Step 66
Right click branches heart group, choose Duplicate Group. Right click it again, choose Merge Group. Now we have a selection of these branches that will be useful in next steps. Turn off this layer.

Thanks for that...
Unfortunately, the resources are no longer available. There's a double edge to free stock photos; they're free, but they tend to disappear. It is still possible to follow the tutorial using alternative photos. You can download the PSD and find the stock photos there as well.
Most of the resources won't download, any tips or can anyone send me a zip file with then in.
