Last Beach Day

 

Last Beach Day

Written 9/3/2022

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, then 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 is by Kela “Xenya”- you can purchase it at www.elegancefly.com

Scrap Kit is by Wicked Diabla Designs “Summer Babe” – you can purchase it at www.wickeddiabladesigns.com

Font of your choice. I am using – Cailyn Bloom

 

Plugins: (plugins are most generally optional)

NONE

 

Let's Begin:

Open element 51 from the kit. Shift +D to duplicate. Close the original. Make your canvas large enough to give you plenty of room to work with. I usually make my canvases 900x900 then crop and resize when I am done.

Resize the frame by 85%.

Using your magic wand select the inside of the frame. Selections modify and expand by 5.

Layers new raster layer and drag under your frame.

Open paper 3 from the kit. Copy and paste the paper into the selection on your new raster layer.

Selections select none.

Add a drop shadow of your choice to the frame.

Open your tube. Copy and paste as a new layer. Resize as you wish.

Place in front of the frame. Add a drop shadow to your tube.

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.

Dog Day Beach

Written May 22, 2021

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, then 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 is by Maryline Cazenave and can be purchased at http://cdoestore.com You must have a license to use this image in your tag creations.

Scrapkit is by Kizzed By Kelz and can also be purchased at CDO.

Mask of your choice.

Font of your choice.

Plugins: (plugins are most generally optional)

Xero-Moodlight

Xero - Radiance

Let's Begin:

Open frame 1 from the kit and shift+D to duplicate. Close the original so you can use it again if you choose in other creations.

Make your canvas large enough for you to work with by going to Image Canvas Size and setting the size you want. I usually do 900x900 just to give me loads of room to work with while creating. You will be cropping and resizing at the end if you wish.

Resize the frame by 80%. Go to Adjust Sharpen more and sharpen it 2x to clean it up some.

Using your magic wand select the inside of the frame. Selections modify and expand by 5. Layers new raster layer and drag this new layer under the frame.

Open paper 5. There is a small white border around this paper so I like to crop that out just because of me wanting to use the paper as a fill for my frame I do not want the white border but you can leave it if you choose. After cropping. Copy and paste into selection which should be on your new layer. Selections select none. Duplicate the paper layer 2x. On both copies change the blend mode of the layer to multiply.

Open paper 2 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.

Open your tube and copy and paste as a new layer at the top. Resize as needed and position where you would like. Apply the Xero Moodlight plugin using the following settings:



Drop shadow both the frame and your tube.

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.

Elements I used:

Once you have everything in place add your artist copyright information and any other details you need to add. Make sure your license # is on there.

I then chose to apply the Xero Radiance plugin using the following settings:

This is completely up to you.

Crop your tag.

Add your name.

Save.

Thanks for trying my tutorial.

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 then 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 an exclusive tube that was created by Arthur Crowe. This tube is exclusive to The Taggers Lounge psp forum. You can get this tube simply by participating at the forum. You can find the forum at http://thetaggerslounge.forumotion.com/ You must have a TTL license to use this image. You can find Arthur’s awesome tubes at https://arthurcrowesfactory.com/store/

Scrap kit is another exclusive made for The Taggers Lounge forum. This kit was made by Jens Sweet Temptations. You can also get this kit by participating at the forum. You can find other goodies by Jen at http://jenssweettemptations.blogspot.ca/

Font of your choice. I am using Amastery(I also used some of the extra swashes)

Plugins: (plugins are most generally optional)
NONE

Let's Begin:
Open element 29 and shift+D to duplicate. Close the original. Make your canvas large enough to work with. Resize the frame by 120%.
Using your freehand selection tool set on point to point carefully go around the outside edge of the frame and select it. Be really careful that you do not go outside of the frame.
Layers new raster layer. Drag under the frame.
Open paper 5 and copy and paste into selection.
LEAVE SELECTED
Open your tube and copy and paste as a new layer. Position so that her top half is within the framed area but also some poking out around if you wish. Erase any bits you do not want. Selections select none.
Add a drop shadow to both your tube and the frame.
Open element 44. Copy and paste as a new layer and drag to the very bottom. Place at the top right side near your tubes head. Now here is where it is going to take some work from you but it’s so worth it in the end. You are going to duplicate this leaf element several times and rotate it so that you can place it around the frame from the top right to the bottom right. I rotated mine by 15 and 30 degrees. Make sure you sharpen every time you rotate. Once you get them built up the way you want then merge them all together and duplicate that merged layer and image flip horizontal and move to the left side. You should have a complete ring of leaves all the way around the frame. Once you are happy then merge both layers together. Duplicate. On the bottom copy Adjust Blur Guassian Blur at 15. On this blurred layer go to effects texture effects Blinds with the following settings: 

Add a drop shadow to the top copy of the leaves layer.
Now here is where some freedom of expression can come in. Let’s begin building up the flowers all around the frame. You can use any flowers of your choice from the kit. Use as little or as much as you want. I placed some under the frame and peeking out. I placed some on top. Re-size them as you need to. Add a drop shadow to each one.
Once you get all of your flowers on let’s add some other elements.
Open element GElement. And copy and paste as a new layer. Re-size by 75%. Move to the bottom left corner of the frame. Add a drop shadow.
Open element 33. Copy and paste as a new layer. Re-size by 50% 2x. Move to the bottom left in front of the water buckets element. Add a drop shadow.
Open element 9 and copy and paste as a new layer. Re-size by 50% and then again by 70%. Drag under the frog layer. Place at the bottom on the right side of the frog. Add a drop shadow.
Open element 6 and copy and paste as a new layer. Re-size by 50% 2x and image flip horizontal. Place on top of the water buckets element. Add a drop shadow.
You can of course at this time add any other elements if you wish and make the tag uniquely yours. I chose to stop here.

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 a tube by Aleksky Stark. I purchased this tube at MPT which is no longer in business and am not sure where to purchase this tube any longer so use whatever tube works for your.
Scrap kit is a fun cool lil kit by Amy Marie called Summer Ice. You can purchase this kit at http://amymarieskits.com/store/
Font of your choice. I am using Run Tron 1983. You can download it at http://www.dafont.com/run-tron1983.font
Plugins:
DSB Flux Bright Noise
Drop shadow used throughout:
0 0 50 6.50 black
Let's Begin:
Open element 10 and shift+D to duplicate. Close the original. Re-size as needed. This will be the base for your tag. Make your canvas large enough to give you room to work with. You can crop and save when you are done.
Using your magic wand tool select the inside of the frame and selections modify and expand by 6. Layers new raster layer and drag under the frame. Open paper 15 and copy and paste into selection. Selections select none. Add a drop shadow to the frame.
Open element 47 and copy and paste as a new layer at the top and move to the far left of the frame. Duplicate 2x for a total of 3. Hide the top 2 layers. Apply the DSB Flux Bright noise filter using 42% and mix. Unhide the next one and apply the filter again but click mix 2x. Unhide the last one and apply the filter again hitting mix 3x.
At this point open your tube and copy and paste as a new layer and place so she is in the front of the bottom right of the wave. This will allow some space on her right to add one of the cute penguin elements from the kit. Add a drop shadow.
Open one of the cute penguins from this kit. I used #3 but you can use whatever one you want. Copy and paste as a new layer. Re-size if you need/want to. Move to the right of your tube and add a drop shadow.
Now lets use some of the great elements in this cute to dress up this adorable tag. I will simply list the elements I used. You may use other elements of your choice. This will make your tag unique. Placement of the elements is completely up to you however if you want your tag to look just like mine then use my tag for reference.
Elements I used:

24 ( I used my pick tool and rotated and erased bits to make it look like she was holding in her hand but this is up to you)

32
59
Layers new raster layer and flood fill with white. Drag to the bottom.
Add your name.
Add your copyright and licensing information.
Crop and lets get ready to animate.
Hide the top 2 layers of the wave you added noise to.
Copy merged all of the layers that are showing.
Open animation shop and right click and paste as a new animation.
Back to psp and hide the bottom wave layer and unhide the middle one. Copy merged again and back to animation shop edit and paste after current frame.
Repeat the above steps with the top wave layer.
