In this tutorial we are going to create the intersection of two rings. This tutorial can also be implemented to Adobe® Photoshop CS2. First you have to create two images of Ring. For this, open up a new document, Use Ellipse Tool from the Toolbar. Now draw a circular shape by holding Shift key. You need the image to be round. Draw in some top left corner. You may see some scratched parts around the circle you've drawn. This can be rectified by making the image soft.
Now look into the Layer Palette. you have to fill the layer with a new color of the ring. First select the layer, Use the Paint Bucket tool and fill the layer with your desired color. The double borders around the circle can be masked using Mask tool, which is not necessary now. Use path Selection tool for making a path to the inner part of the circle to make it a ring.
The next step is to create a second path for the circle image and to adjust dimensions. Here we are going to use an Ellipse Tool. Then draw a new circle leaving a space for the width of the ring. Then use Subtract from Shape Layer from the Layer Palette for subtracting the new image drawn. Using the Path Selection tool, deselect the unwanted paths and make adjustment to form a ring shape.
Create another ring with different color and keep aside. Now you are going to drop a shadow for the first ring to fall over the second. Use Drop Shadow tool from the menu bar. Use Bevel and also Emboss tool for embossing the image and its shadow further.
Now using the Layer Palette, move the rings together such that they overlap each other. Now using the Path Selection tool, select the first layer. You have to fix the intersecting areas now.
Add a Layer Mask from the Layer Palette. This will invert the image. Use blending options from the Layer Style to smooth the image and use the Paint Brush tool to increase the effect. The final image may be the intersection of two rings.
