written 4/7/2015

Supplies Needed:



Font of your choice. I am using Impact which comes standard with windows and also Belphebe which you can get at http://www.dafont.com/belphebe.font

Plugins:
NONE

Let's Begin:
Open element 57 and shift+D to duplicate.
Close the original.
Image re-size by 80%.
Make your canvas large enough to work with.
Move the frame to the top left of your tag area.
Using your magic wand select the inside of the frame.
Layers new raster layer and drag under the frame.
Open paper 2 and edit copy and paste into selection.
Selections select none.
Add a slight drop shadow to the frame.
I used
0 0 70 6.00 black
Open your full sized tube and copy and paste as a new layer.
Move to the far right side.
Re-size so she will fit nicely along the side of the frame.
Add the same slight drop shadow.
Open element 58 and copy and paste as a new layer.
Drag under your tube.
Move to the bottom so your tube is standing on it.
Open element 63 and copy and paste as a new layer.
Re-size by 75%.

Add a slight drop shadow.
Open element 19 and copy and paste as a new layer.

Image re-size by 85%.
Move to the far right behind your tube along side of the frame.
Add a slight drop shadow.
Using Paper 6 as your background and the impact font.
Type out the words “Beach Bound” along the bottom in the sand.
If you want yours to look kinda buried in the sand here is what I did with mine.
First add a drop shadow of 1 -1 70 3.00 black
Then a slight gradient glow in white and then the drop shadow again.
Duplicate your sand layer and bring it to the top in front of the text.
Lower the opacity so you can see the text behind it.
Using your eraser erase bits of the sand and make it appear to be piled in front of some of the letters.
Use your softener tool to smooth the edges when you are done.
Put the opacity back to 100.
Open element 12 and re-size by 50% and then again by 70%.
Copy and paste as a new layer and place on the bottom right of the text.
Add a drop shadow.
Open element 40 and re-size 2x by 70%.
Copy and paste as a new layer and move to the far right behind your tube but in front of the tree.

Copy and paste as a new layer and drag down to just above your frame.
Move the far left side of your frame.
Add a drop shadow.
Open element 64 and re-size by 50%.
Copy and paste as a new layer and move to the front bottom left of the sand.
Add a drop shadow.
Open element 67 and copy and paste as a new layer and move under your tube.
