Pink Romantic Signature

1. Create a new document (400*150). We're going to create a pink signature that can also be used for a small and minimalistic website design if used properly but of course also for forums. In this tutorial we'll also add some details to give it just the look it needs using quite a lot of brushes!

2. Select your paint bucket tool and fill the background layer with #d392f8.

3. Now download this brush and use your brush tool (I assume you know how to use brushes) to create some white #FFFFFF clouds on a new layer (layer - new layer). this is what you'll get after you've used your brush tool.

4. Select your cloud layer and go to (filter - blur - motion blur) and use the following settings like shown in the screenshot below. This step isn't really necessary but using this technique gives you a more dreamy effect.

5. In step five you'll be adding stars using this brush. Again make sure your foreground color is white and also create a new layer (layer - new layer)! This is my outcome but yours can be totally different of course!

6. Use your brush tool to add some grass and also create a new layer. We're going to use a basic brush so make sure you reset your brushes (you can see how that's done in the first picture). Then select the grass brush (second picture) and start adding some in different sizes (using a larger brush size on the left and right side of your signature to create hills adds a nice effect)! Make sure both your foreground and background color is black #000000. The result can be seen in the third image below this sixth step.

7. In this step we'll add something extra, it could be anything but I'm going to use a tree (just find yourself some tree brushes on deviantart like I did)… Make sure your foreground color is still black #000000 and create a new layer to keep all the things you add separated (this makes it easier to adjust something without having to remove one layer that contains everything).

8. In this step I used a custom shape but I'm sure you can find a brush on deviantart with two people hugging or talking!

9. In this last step we'll add some text so go ahead and type something lovely like I did… I've used a font called arno pro with a size of 22pt. When you've typed out some text go to (layer - layer style - blending options) and add the following three effects with the settings shown below.

10. When all of this is done you should have something like this, I've also added a 1px black border to finish it off! And there you go, a simple yet wonderful pink signature or header for a website of forum.
