********************************

Not only do we do a patterned frame here but we also make use of Layers
and the ERASE tool to create the Black and White effect.

********************************

You will also need the 'linenPOP' texture
which you can download here


and EXTRACT to ..\Paint Shop Pro8\Textures (folder)



Right click and save this image to a folder on your computer.





Open up your image in your PSP workspace
Go to LAYERS >>> Promote Background Layer


Go to LAYERS >>> New Raster Layer
Flood fill with Pale Gray ( #C7CEE5 )

Go to your LAYER PALETTE

Change the Blend Mode on Raster 2 to COLOUR LEGACY



You'll now have what looks like a Black and White image.

Make sure Raster 2is highlighted


Select your ERASER tool
Use these settings




Carefully erase around the figures and the seat
picking up the leaves on the lady's arm and seat at the same time








This way you can regulate the amount of colour you want to show through.
The more you go over an area with the eraser... the more colour will show.


Now you can change the SIZE of your ERASER tool
to suit yourself and erase the rest of the gray area
surrounding the figures


When you're finished erasing
Go to your LAYER PALETTE and click on the 'Background' layer
Go to EFFECTS >>> Sharpen >>> Sharpen

Go to LAYERS >>> Merge >>> Merge All (Flatten)
