Hello Spring

written 2/28/2016

This tutorial is meant purely as a guide. Feel free to make your tag unique by using your own choice of tube and scrap kit. If you want your tag to look just like mine then use the same supplies I have used. Any resemblance to any other tutorial or tag is purely coincidental.

This tutorial assumes you have a basic knowledge of paint shop pro.

Supplies Used:

Tube by Vadis. You can purchase her at http://picsfordesign.com

Scrap kit by Purple Dreams Scraps which can also be purchased at http://picsfordesign.com

Tag template by Simple Expressions. I am using template_01. You can download it at http://simpleexpressions58.blogspot.com/2016/01/setemplate01.html

Mask of your choice. I am using mask #451 by Vix. You can download her amazing masks at http://www.freewebs.com/vixpsp/

Font of your choice. I am using Brigent Script. You can purchase it at https://thehungryjpeg.com/product/7170-brigent-script/

Plugins:

Penta Dot and Cross

Let's begin:

Open the tag template and shift+D to duplicate.

Close the original.

Delete the following layers:

Raster 1, frame, and white background.

Make your canvas large enough to work with.

Open paper 7 and copy and paste as a new layer.

Drag to the bottom.

Apply your mask.

Delete the mask layer and merge the group.

I moved my mask to sit behind the circle in the template but this is completely up to you and depending on what mask you use how it looks.

Now lets fill each of the template layers using papers from the kit.

Once you are done delete all the original template layers.

Add a drop shadow to each layer.

I chose to add the face of my tube to each of the circle layers and change the layer property to luminance legacy.

I also applied Penta Dot and Cross using the default settings.

I also added noise to the scalloped layer but this is completely up to you also.

Now copy and paste your tube as a new layer.

Re-size as needed.

Position within the center of the tag to the right side.

Add a drop shadow.

Now lets dress this beauty up with some of the great elements from the kit.

I will list the elements I used and you can either use the same elements or choose others.. its completely up to you.

Use my tag for reference on placement of the elements if you are wanting your tag to look just like mine.
