Browse through the rest of the tutorial to learn this simple but cute effect :D

The basics …

1. Open your Adobe Photoshop. I’m using CS2. Create a new canvass bigger than the picture we are going to edit. And of course open the image you would want to use. :D

2. On the Image tab under Adjustments, click on Color Balance.

Here is the fun part, notice a pop-up window on the screen (shown in the image below). Just play with the colors, add/subtract some cyan, magenta or maybe yellow. You’ll notice a change in the color of the image you are using. Once happy with the result just click OK.

3. Drag the image (using the move tool) to the new canvass and place it wherever you feel like it looks cool. :D

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you are happy with your work.

Enjoy! :D
