Hi all, need some help, I have an image of an envelope that has been drawn using different shades of pink. I need to change the colour of this envelope to use blue instead of pink, is there a way to keep all the different gradients and shades etc but change them to use shades of blue instead of pink?

Many thanks,

yes. there are two very easy methods in photoshop to acomplish this. Just choose which method works best for you.

1) if the envelope is on it's on layer separate from the background layer, you can control click on the envelope layer in order to select it. Then create a new layer. Next select your desired foreground color that you'd like to color the envelope then click Alt + Backspace (Option + Delete for MAC). Finally, change the blend mode to color. This should give you what you want.

1} Select color overlay in the layer styles options and just keep adjusting the hue bar until you the envelope to the desired color that you want then reducing the opacity so that the orrigional gradient shows through.
