Sun and Salt Water



Sun and Salt Water
written 4/30/2015

Supplies Needed:



Mask of your choice. I am using mask #298 by insatiable dreams. You can get her masks at http://insatiabledreams.net

Font of your choice. I am using A&S California Plug. This is a PTU font.

Plugins:
None

Let's Begin:
Open frame 7 from the kit.
Shift +D to duplicate.
Close the original.
Make your canvas large enough to work with.
Open paper 4 and copy and paste as a new layer.
Drag under the frame.
Apply your mask.
Delete the mask layer and merge the group.
Center behind your frame.
Using your magic wand select the inside of the left side of your frame.
Selections modify and expand by 1.
Open your tube and copy and paste as a new layer.
Drag under the frame and position her face within the frame area.
Selections invert and delete.
Selections select none.
Repeat for the right side but flip your tube horizontal.
Add a drop shadow to both tubes and merge together.
Add a drop shadow to the frame.
Now lets dress up our tag.
My tutorial is meant to be a guide for you but as always you should make it your own.
I will tell you which elements I used and the placement is completely up to you.
If you choose to make it just like my tag then use my tag as a reference for placement.

If you want to do your name like mine so it looks to be part of the water follow the steps below:
You will want to type out your name as floating instead of the normal vector.
Go to selections and save your selection to the alpha channel.
Go to selections and promote your selection to a layer.
Effects Cutout using the following settings:

Selections select none.
Use your auto proof button if needed and make any adjustments.
Selections load selection from alpha channel and load the selection you just saved.
