PSP - I am using X5, but any should do

***This tutorial assumes you have a working knowledge of PSP***

Okay, let's begin. The first thing you want to do is to create our mask. Open whatever mask you choose to use; I have chosen a mask by WSL. Okay, in Paint Shop Pro (PSP) click FILE>OPEN>and open the mask you have chosen, then start a new image FILE>NEW>700x700 and transparent needs to be checked. I have chosen to use a paper for this mask...so open paper 15, and copy and paste it to the new image. Now go to the top layers menu and click NEW MASK LAYER> from image...a pop up opens..click on the title of the mask you chose in the drop down menu. Now go back to the side layers menu and click on the square that has the layers combined...right click it then click merge..the merge group..and voila..you have a mask layer now! :) Just copy and paste it to the tag, increase it by 15%, and make sure it is centered well on the tag.

***(NOTE: there is a layers menu on the right side of your screen..if u do not see it then look up top and click VIEW>PALETTES>LAYERS and it will open up...u use this layer to bring things to the front..say for example u put a shoe on the tag but it went behind a bucket and u want it in front of the bucket...while holding the left click button on your mouse or touch pad down, you would slide the shoe to the layer the bucket is on..it would now be in the front...use this anytime u want to bring something to the forefront.)***

Okay, let's get started! First find and open el 75, and reduce it by 15%, and place on the bottom right...D and FH, and place on the bottom left..repeat both again and move back to where the waves start...erase edges to make em fit inside the mask area. Find and open the Violette tube full-view (LAYERS_peach sweater, peach flowers, brown shorts)...merge all visible layers. Now copy and paste her to the tag, reduce her by 30%, and place her at the bottom, to the left. Next, go back tot he tube and copy and paste the closeup to the right top corner...reduce to fit area, erasing any below the water level...FH, invert, and add a screen blend mode.

Next, find and open the el 94, and reduce it by 75%, and place it on the left side, behind the sand layers. Next, find and open the el 98, and reduce it by 45%, and place it on the right side, behind the sand layers. Next, find and open the el 20, and reduce it by 70%, and place it on the right side, in front of el 98. Next, find and open the el 7, and reduce it by 80%, and place it in the sky, to the left of the close up.

Next, find and open the el 15, and reduce it by 70%, and place it on the left side, behind the plant. Next, find and open the el 28, and reduce it by 65%, and place it angled in the top left corner.

Next, find and open the el 32, and reduce it by 80%, and place it on the right side of the logs. Next, find and open el 25, and reduce it by 90%, and place it on the right side, against the life preserver.

Next, find and open the el 90, and reduce it by 85%, and place it on the left side on the grass...D and FH and place on the right side of the grass. Next, find and open the el 96, and reduce it by 80%, and place it on the right side, behind the logs. Next, find and open the el 30, and reduce it by 90%, and place it angled on the left, on the bucket. Next, find and open el 52, and reduce it by 70%, and place it on the right side, on the bottom of the logs. Next, find and open el 82, and reduce it by 95%, and place it on the right, on top of el 52...D and FH and place on the left at the bottom of the pail.

Next, find and open the el 81, and reduce it by 95%, and place it on the right, on top of el 52...D and FH, and place on the left, on the bottom of the pail. Next, find and open the el 54, and reduce it by 98%, and place it on the right side, between the flowers. Next, find and open the el 36, and reduce it by 85%, and place to the right of the tube, in the sand.

Next, find and open el 40, and reduce it by 90%, and place it beside the tube, in the sand. Next, find and open el 17, and reduce it by 85%, and place it on the left side, by the pail. Next, find and open el 60, and reduce it by 90%, and place it on the books. Next, find and open el 65, and reduce it by 93%, and place it on the starfish.
