Texture Layers, Opacity & Blending Modes

First I exported both pictures from Lightroom to Photoshop. Then I copied the texture picture and pasted it on the picture of the shoes. I changed the opacity to 27% and selected blending mode normal. The texture overlay adds a feeling of oldness to the picture and makes it look more vintage.

Text With Layer Blending Modes

First I opened photoshop and added a gradient background. I used normal mode, linear gradient, in the purple/pink color. Then I typed the word "meow" in the font poplar std, size 190 pt, in the color maroon. After, I used the warp text tool and added the fisheye effect and bent it +67%. Next I used the drop shadow tool in the blend mode linear burn, opacity 87%, angle -143. Then i used the inner shadow post with blend mode multiply, opacity 75%, angle -143. After I used the pattern overlay tool with blend mode normal and opacity 24%. Next I used the bevel and emboss tool with the contour inner bevel, depth 171%, in the down direction. Finally, I used the stroke tool in the size 4 px, outside position, blend mode normal, and fill type color.
