Download the zip you need here It contains a tube, made by Ilonka and a mask. Place the mask in C- program files -PSP 9 - Masks Goldfill.bmp is a pattern. Place it in the folder PSP 9 - Patterns Used Plug-in: Texturizer

Step 1

Create a new image 400x 300, transparent Make #ecf2c8 your foreground color Change the background color to Pattern and search for Goldfill. Flood fill the image with the foreground color Add a new raster layer ( Layers - New raster layer) Flood fill the new layer with the pattern from the background color. (right click with the Flood Fill Tool) Step 2

Go to Layers - Load/save mask - load mask from disk and use these settings:

Click load Then Layers - Merge - Merge all.

Open the tube Ilonka - Flower 07.Select the bottom layer of your tube.Now go to the tube, click with right and choose CopyClick with your magic wand (tolerance 0!!) in the middle of your image with the mask. The middle is selected now and the tube is copied. Click with right in your image en choose Paste - Paste into selection - Buttonize Height = 30 / Width= 30 / Opacity= 100/ Mark transparent and the color is #ecf2c8 (click OK now) Selections - select none

Step 4

Now we're gone flood fill the compartments Select 4 symmetric compartments (or 8 in the corners) at once, with the magic wand. Click on the first and with the Shift + click you can select the other ones as well. Change the foreground to a color from the tube and flood fill 4 compartments. Then selection - select none. Do the same with the next 4 compartments, but choose a different color from the flowertube. Go on like this till all the compartments are colored. You can also use a plug-in to give a nice effect on the colors. I used Texturizer.
