22- Add a new raster layer

With your tool brush set as on point 20 , apply your brush Starry12 ( size about 300 pixels ) or a brush of your choice, with a colour of your choice ( I have used the same colour as on point 20 ) in the top hand right corner of your tag; you may have to duplicate that layer to get a deeper colour !
