Part one:
Today will be making a stylish arrow that you see in my site sometimes. Here is an example will be making.

Step One: Make a canvas with the size of 303 x 144. After that select the round rectangle tool with the radius of 5px and the hex color of #138598;, example:



Step Two:Then right click the layer and select rasterize layer, after that cut a little bit of the right side and bottom of the rectangle shape and erase it (so they wont have a crave anymore)





Step Three:Select the rectangle tool with the hex color of #0C5662; and make a sqaure under the round rectangle shape. (right click the layer and select rasterize layer) Note: Make sure this layer is in the bottom.



Step Four: Still the layer selected, select the Rectangular marquee tool and erase a little of the right and after that select the Polygonal Lasso tool and cut from the top left corner to the bottom right corner, here the results:



If you seem to not like the results of the bottom part then do it again, here's mine:



Step Five: Now of the arrow, select the Custom Shape Tool, find a Triangle shape with the hex color of #138598;...



Make and the shape fit the size of the round rectangle shape (Make sure to rotate the triangle). After that merge the round rectangle shape layer and the triangle shape layer.



ALL RIGHT! you finish the Part one of the Tutorial. Lets go on to the next part.

Part two:
select the merged layer and go to layer > Layer Style > Blending Options.

Step Six: Go to the drop shadow and for the image below...









Go to Filter > Noise > Add Noise




Step Seven: Select the rectange shape layer and add noise to it Filter > Noise > Add Noise





Final Step: Select the Text tool and you the Arial font make the little dot at 10px ( ... < these dots the period on you key board)





And thats how you make your own stylish arrow.

If you want you can aslo put text on to it here is mine.
