Tube of choice, I used Rion Vernon and Shawlie Scrap used Peace and Love by Jaelop Designs Font of choice I used Splendid Script Graphic Program of choice, I use PSP 9 This tutorial assumes you have working knowledge of paint shop pro, All of my tutorials are my own creation and any similarity with any other tutorial is purely coincidential. Please do not copy my tutorials to anyplace, please link back to my blog! Open a new image 750x750 and flood fill white, (you can ALWAYS resize later, I like having plenty of room to work) Open paper9 resize by 18% and then c/p as a new layer apply a mask of choice, I used HorsePlays mask 27 I duplicated it and then merged the two (I also changed the hue for the shawlie tag) Now open element12 (frame) c/p as a new layer and resize this by 25% Now lets open element 8 (leaves) c/p as a new layer, place this right above your mask layer resize by 25% and place on the right side of the frame duplicate and resize this by 80% then rotate to the right by 15%, Now duplicate BOTH leaves layers and flip them both, now duplicate one of the smaller leaves and then rotate to the right by 86% and arrange along the bottom of the frame, (depending on the one you duplicated you may have to mirror it) now lets open element21 (leaves again) c/p as a new layer and resize this by 16% arrange towards the bottom of the frame, I duplicated this 2 times to fill in the area, now lets open paper6 resize this by 18% grab your magic wand and click inside the frame opening modify and expand by 9 and then invert the selection c/p the paper as a new layer hit delete, and move this layer below the frame, again I changed the hue to match my tubes, Now lets open element17 (white rose) c/p as a new layer, bring this to the top and resize by 25% now open element15 (pale blue rose) c/p as a new layer resize by 20% and mirror place with your other rose again I colorized this to match my tubes, open element44 (feather1) c/p as a new layer resize this by 25% drag this below your two rose layers, I mirrored mine now open element43(feather2) c/p as a new layer and resize this by 25% mirror and then rotate to the left by 85% place at the bottom edge of the frame area, now open element 33(white flower) c/p as a new layer and bring to the top, resize by 15% and place with your roses, I duplicated mine a few times and placed them around the roses, some layers below the roses, now open element25 (blue string bow) c/p as a new layer and bring to the top, resize by 30% and place at the top left of the frame, rotate to the left by 12% again I colorized this to match my tubes used, now open element24 (gem button) c/p as a new layer and resize this by 30% and place in the center of the bow, I again colorized to match my tubes, now add a dropshadow of choice to your elements (not the feathers) hide your white background layer and merge visible. I always resize my finished tag BEFORE adding my copyright info, it makes this seem clearer, add your name and copy right information and Save the way you prefer to save tags, I hope you enjoyed this tut smiles christy Ü
