Poinsettia Tag

To make this tag you will need:

Poinsettia

Image Magick

Go to Image Magick and create a white xc, size 400x400

Now, comp your poinsettia over the xc, making sure to check the box to make it tile across and down the image canvas.

Now, go to EFFECTS. Type in 20x20 in the text box and select spread, then click on the effect button.

Go back to EFFECTS. Leave the 20x20 in the text box, but this time select gaussian blur.

Go to FX. Type in -60 (that's negative 60) into the text box and select implode.

Now resize your image to 250x250. I know it looks like a mess now, just trust me.

Go to composite and comp the poinsettia image softlight, making sure to check the box that tiles the image across and down the image canvas.

Now, comp the poinsettia over, gravity center. Make sure the box to tile the image across and down is UNCHECKED.

All that's left is to annotate and frame your tag however you want before outputting and saving.
