Autumn Breeze

This tutorial is meant purely as a guide. Feel free to use your own choice of tube or scrap kit to make your tag unique. If you want your tag to look just like mine them use the same supplies I have used. This tutorial assumes you have a knowledge of paint shop pro. Any resemblance to any other tag or tutorial is completely coincidental.

Supplies Used:

Tube of your choice. I am using one by Pinup Toons. I purchased this tube when they were with CILM(which is now closed) but you can purchase their tubes at http://cdoestore.com/

Scrap kit is a freebie add on kit by Manipulated by Magik. It is called Shabby Autumn. You can download it at http://manipulatedbymagik.blogspot.com/2016/09/shabby-autumn-freebie-add-on-kit.html?zx=360c408fd0a908f

Font of your choice. I am using Impregnable. You can download it at http://www.fontspace.com/m%C3%A5ns-greb%C3%A4ck/impregnable-personal-use-only

Plugins:

Xero Greyscaler

Xero Porcelain

Drop shadow used throughout:

0 0 70 11.00 black

Let's Begin:

Open your tag template and shift+D to duplicate. Close the original. Remove the cr and background layers. Make your canvas large enough to work with.

Fill each layer of the tag template using either papers from the kit, colors of  your choice, gradients of your choice or textures of your choice.

Add a drop shadow to each of the text layers and merge them together.

Add a drop shadow to each of the other layers.

On the center top square of the template selections select all float and defloat. Open your tube and copy and paste as a new layer. Move to far left of the square. Selections invert and hit delete. Selections select none. Apply Xero Greyscaler using the default settings. Apply Xero Porcelain using the default settings. Add a drop shadow. Duplicate. Image flip horizontal and move to the far right side of the square area. Merge these 2 layers together.

Open your tube again and copy and paste as a new layer. Position in the center. Apply the Xero Porcelain filter using the default settings. Add a drop shadow.

Move the wordart/text to the center of the tag.

Open paper 4 and copy and paste as a new layer. Drag to the bottom. Apply the mask of your choice. Delete the mask layer and merge the group. I added a slight drop shadow to the mask to help is stand out a bit .. this is completely up to you.

Now let’s dress the tag up with elements from the kit. I will list the elements I used. Feel free to use other elements to make your tag unique. Placement of the elements is completely up to you. If you want your tag to look just like mine then use my tag for reference.
