Hi All :)

 

I would like to apply the effect (see below) to the stickers I'm creating for my planners.  Can someone point me to the right tutorial, please?

So.  How long is an hour to a mayfly?

You can use @BoltBait's Bevel Selection Plugin.

 

Select the shape, then use the adjustment in both the shadow and colors area.

Thank you, Pixey!  Hm.  I was in the right spot, just not using the bevel correctly.  I gave up and used the inside shadow, very light eraser, very light brush, you name it.  First  thing tomorrow I'll start practicing with the bevel tool.   You just made my month.

Hey Pixie!  Thank you again for pointing me in the right direction, if not the right tool.  I tried all sorts of machinations using the bevel and other tool combos, but could not get the look I wanted until, UNTIL, I found a tutorial by PNDing that opened up a whole new Paint.NET world for me.  His/her last tut was 9 nine years ago, but man oh man, it doesn't matter.  Here's what I found, then subscribed to his channel to get the rest of his videos.  Were it not for you, I'd probably still be floundering around.
