Christmas Tree

Tutorial can be found here.

I found this Christmas tree tutorial and it looked really fun. I began with a black background and then used a green and black gradient overlay. Then I added two more gradient layers with the fill level at 0% to create the background. The tutorial used the pen tool to draw the tree and the shape tool to make the stars but I just used a star shaped brush and changed the size to create my tree. Next, I added an outer glow to the star layer. Then I used the snowflake shapes and placed them randomly on the background with varying fill levels to make them different shades of white. Then I used the shape called Registration Target 2 with a gradient overlay to make the top star look like it is glowing. The tutorial used the pen tool to draw the garland on the tree, but I just tried to use the shape tool to make a line and then warp it.
