Lily Of The Valley Designs

There are two buttons that I like to make they are: The starburst and the shop now buttons.

The starburst is a very popular web 2.0 button that is an eye catcher. First I start of with my image and add a starburst with the custom shape tool.

Then I draw the starburst and make a gradient overlay. Layer > Layer Style > Gradient.

Then give the star three dimension with a drop shadow. Layer > Layer Style > Drop Shadaw.

Then I write SALE on the starburst and walah!

To create a shop now button I first get the rulers to help me make a box (Ctrl + R). Then I drag the grid lines to make the perfect square.

Second use the grid to make my lines with the line tool.

Next I type in the words Shop Now in all Caps. One more finishing touch I create an arrow with a custom shape tool (Note I use Arrow 6)

And Wallah there you have it.
