Mistletoe

1) Open a new document (200x200 pixel) and create an ellipse.



2) Fill the selection with '#22dd22' and waive the selection. Continue to work with the selection ellipse and cut you out parts of the green object.



3) With the selection rectangle you cut the left side off of the sheet.



4) If you copy the level, reflect it horizontal and you shift the level with the moving tool into the correct position.



5) With "picture - > adaptation (attitudes) - > brightness/contrast" ( brightness: -20 ) darkens you the left side somewhat. Reduce the two "Blatt" levels to one level.



6) Go to 'Layers' > 'Layer Style' > 'Stroke' and within the dialog change the settings to: (note: the green is #2dbe2d)



7) Select '#00ff00' as the foreground color and create a new layer. With the selection ellipse - create circles and stroke them an outline (1 pixel and inside).. fill. Repeat this step in such a way that all points are connected like:



8) Delete the lower part of the circle(s) in each case and copy you the layer. Reflect it again horizontal and shift into the correct position.
