final

- -To start, create a new photo shop document with the dimensions of 10 inches wide and 2 inches tall at 150 resolution.

- -First start with a simple black background so we can work with any colors later on.

- -Then create a rounded rectangle using your rounded rectangle tool, that is 1.5 inches high and 9.5 inches wide.

- -Use the color “fbf8a5” and fill your rounded rectangle in with the paint bucket tool.

- - Then go to blending options, the satin section, and fill in the color box with “fea407.” Make the opacity 75% and angle 90 degrees. Distance should be set to 11 pixels and size should be 14 pixels.

- -Then with the remaining black on the outside of the rounded rectangle, use a paint brush with 21 pixels in size and put dots along the edges about a half an inch apart from each other. Use the color “f6f3a2.”

- -After the dots along the outside and main rounded rectangle are in place, duplicate the exact rounded rectangle from earlier and shrink it to about a half an inch high and an inch wide to use for the navigation bar buttons.

- -Once you diminish the rounded rectangles size go to blending options and add on a stroke around the outside so you will have an outline on top of the original rounded rectangle. Use a black stroke with 3% pixels so there is a thin line outside the navigation bar buttons.

-Duplicate 4 of these rounded rectangles and make them your buttons, separate them about an inch apart from each other and fill in the necessary words for your website
