Bracelet

This bracelet was created with those techniques :
Creating 3D with the Stroke and Rotation by Greg Vander Houwen at PST.
Real 3d type using layer styles by Mark Anthony Larmand at PSG .
Jewel by Moth at PSG ( and you can see a few that I made here).
For the background I used brushes Paper Damage by Joao Pombeiro
you can download at Adobe Studio.

1.Open a new document size 340 X 240 px.
Add New Layer use Elliptical Marquee Tool, select fixed size 230x140 px.
