    1. Basic Shapes

    Start making the basic shapes of the iTune icon. If you need help on how to trace from an image, visit my Tracing Photo tutorial.

    2. Music Note

    Make a glossy orb by using my Glossy Button technique. First, make 3 shapes from light color to dark color. Go to Object > Blend > Blend Options, select Specified Steps = 128. Then select all 3 shapes and press Ctrl + Alt + B or go to Object > Blend > Make.

    Reflection

    Make an oval shape and fill with black-white gradient. Make sure the black color is full black (C,M,Y,K=100). Drag it on top of the orb and select Screen Blending Mode.

    Highlights

    Make a tall vertical rectangle and an elongate circle; then Blend it. Duplicate it by Alt-drag to the right.
    4.gif

    Make a 3 color gradient path.
    5.gif

    Make another highlight using the same Blending technique as in the previous step and select Screen Blending Mode.

    3. CD

    Use the Gradient tool and fill the CD shapes with white-grey gradient.
    7.gif

    Rainbow Gradient

    Make some multi-color line strokes as shown below. Make sure the first and last stroke is white because it will be transparent. Use the Blend Tool (W), click on the edge of each stroke starting from left to right.
    8.gif

    Mask

    Use the CD shape and mask the rainbow gradient by Ctrl+7 or Object > Clipping Mask > Make. Then select Multiply Blending Mode and adjust the Opacity to 26%.
    9.gif

    Repeat the previous step to make another rainbow gradient.
    10.gif

    4. Music Note Refection

    Make 3 oval paths, make sure the outer path is white color(this will make a glow effect). Select all 3 paths, go to Object > Blend > Make (Ctl+Alt+B).
    11.gif

    Drag it below the music note and select Multiply Blending Mode , 37% Opacity. Duplicate the refection object by Alt-drag to the right side.
    12.gif

    5. Drop Shadow

    The last step is to apply a Drop Shadow effect to the CD. Select the outer CD path, go to Effect > Stylize > Drop Shadow and apply the following setting:

    1. Import a Picture

    Find a beautiful photo that you would like to use for your artwork. Place it in Illustrator by File > Place. Then lock the layer.
    1.gif

    2. Base Paths

    Make a new layer, ‘base paths’. Use the Pen tool, cover the clothes with white paths.
    2.gif

    3. Envelope Text Distortion

    Copy all white paths from ‘base paths’ layer and paste it in a new layer. If you want, you can just duplicate the ‘base paths’ layer. Now use the Type tool to type in your text message and send it to back (note: your text must be sit below the shape). Then select the text object and the shirt path, go to Object > Envelope Distort > Make with Top Object or press Ctrl+Alt+C. This will distort the text with the selected shape.
    3.gif

    Repeat this step to make the envelope text distortion for the skirt.
    4.gif

    Skirt

    For the skirt text objects, rotate it to 90 degree.
    5.gif

    Don’t forget to use the short cut keys. It will save you a lot of time. Just select the shape and text, and press Ctrl+Alt+C.

    Final

    Now you can add some design elements in the background to spice up the artwork.

    Step 5

    Double click on the layer you have just created and apply an Inner Shadow, Gradient Overlay and a Stroke to the layer.
    step5.jpg

    Step 6: Add Shadow

    To add the shadow below the envelope you need to use the Elliptical Marquee Tool (M) and create a black shape like below. Then go to Filter Blur Gaussian Blur and use 3,8. This effect will make the envelope look like it is floating.
    step6.jpg

    Step 7

    Create another new layer and create a shape like below then fill it with #4b7c9d. Next double click on the layer and add a Gradient Overlay.
    step7a.jpg

    Step 9: Lines

    Create a new layer for each line you create. You will create these lines using the Line Tool (U) set to white and different weights. Also you will change the Opacity of each as you wish.
    step9.jpg

    Step 10: Sticky strip

    Start creating the sticky strip of the envelope. Create a new layer then use the Pen Tool (P) to create the shape below and fill the layer with white.
    step10.jpg

    Step 11: Strip texture

    To create the strip texture you need to make sure you have the white strip layer selected and go to Filter > Noise > Add Noise and set the Noise to 56,56; Uniform and deselect Monochromatic. In the end set the layer to Opacity 15%.
    step11a.jpg

    step11b.jpg

    Step 12: Elements

    Now it is time to add the elements inside the envelope. Start with a piece of paper. Create a new layer and place it over the envelope like below then create the shape using the Polygonal Lasso Tool (L) and fill it with white. You must create another layer above this shape and use a black brush to create the shadow that is going to be above the inside elements.
    step12.jpg

    Step 13

    Create another shape. This time use the Custom Shape Tool (U) and in the shape list search for the puzzle shape. When you find it place it onto the screen, use the Transform Tool to distort the element then add a simple gradient like below.
    step13a.jpg

    step13b.jpg

    Step 14

    Create another shape as you did in step 13 but this time select from the list the magnifying glass. Apply the shape and fill it with #2ea7fa. Also apply a smooth Gradient Overlay.

    Step 15

    Create a magnifying effect. Simply create a new layer and place it below the magnifying glass layer. The layer should be white with a soft grey gradient. Then add the text “text” and erase a part of it to make it look like it is magnified. Next you need to add a soft white gloss to make it look like a glass. In the end add the shadow by creating a new layer below all these and applying a soft black color. Then set the layer to 20% Opacity.
    step15.jpg

    Step 16

    Create a movie roll the same way as you did with the other elements.
    step16.jpg

    Step 17

    step17.jpg

    Step 18: Details

    Now it is time to add details and gloss to the elements. Follow the steps below as you will be taken through each modification so you can create it as well.
