texture tutorial

we were sent out to get rubbings of textures that we found interesting. i got a few but i didn't really like the ones i had gotten so i used a Scan of a cabbage.
this is a poster that was made by using a range of techniques in photoshop.
the way in which i created this look was i stared of with a scan of a cabbage leaf and then changed the hue and saturation to pink. i copied this layer and changed the hue and saturation to make it green. then i rubbed away half of the green layer on top so it blended. i merged the layes together and used a filter to give it a strange texture. then i changed the perspective so i turned into a cone shape. then i copied this layer a couple times an flipped them around so it made this 'zig zag' affect. and then i merged all the layers. after this i coped this layer and changed the hue and saturation to blue. then i made a text layer and made a selection around it. i deleted the text but kept the selection. i inversed the selection,then went on the blue layer and deleted the rest of the blue i didn't want, this made the blue layer only show were the text was.
