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 open the template #13 that was made by me. Then, let's 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 chose to use a paper for the mask, so copy and paste paper 4 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, reduce the size by 50%, and place on the top left...duplicate and move down...keep duplicating and moving around until all areas you wish to have a mask in are covered.

***(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.)***

The next thing we want to do is to start adding our elements to make this tag come to life!! First, we need to put our papers to our template. The papers should be as follows: paper 6 on rasters 3, 4, and 11, paper 10 on rasters 2, 7, and 8, paper 7 on rasters 6, p, and C9, and paper 1 on rasters 5 and 10.

Next, find and open the full-view of the Smile tube. Copy and paste her to the tag; reduce her by 25% and center her at the bottom. Now go back and open the close up view....copy and paste it to the left bottom square..reduce to fit and invert...repeat for the other square but FH. Now add an inner bevel to all shapes.

Next, find and open the el 54, and reduce it by 80%, and place it on the bottom right. Next, find and open the el 50, and reduce it by 80%, and place it on the bottom right, behind the makeup. Next, find and open the el 39, and reduce it to fit over the edges of the red circle. Next, find and open the el 9, and reduce it by 80%, and place it on the right square.

Next, find and open the el 78, and reduce it by 20%, and FV and place it on the right strip. Next, find and open the el 44, and reduce it by 90%, and place it on the top right, on the strip. Next, find and open the el 43, and reduce it by 40%, and place it on the bottom left, under the close ups. Next, find and open the el 57, and reduce it by 85%, and place it in the bottom left corner.

Next, find and open the el 1, and leaving the size as is, place it on the white square. Next, find and open the el 34, and leaving the size as is, and place it sporadically all over the mask layer...flip it as needed. Next, find and open the el 5, and reduce it by 45%, and place it on the top left. Next, find and open the el 72, and reduce it by 85%, and place it on the left corner of the white square.

Next, find and open the el 75, and reduce it by 85%, and place it on the right side, by the smile signs. Next, find and open the el 58, and leaving the size as is, place it on the top left, on the black oval..FH and FV and place at the top. Next, find and open the el 79, and reduce it by 70%, and place it angled on the top right. Next, find and open the el 81 and reduce it by 25%, and place it in the red circle.

Next, find and open el 35, and reduce it by 85%, and place it centered and angled on the white ball in the red circle. Next, find and open el 45, and reduce it by 20%, and place it on the top left. Next, find and open el 47, and reduce it by 40%, and place it angled behind the tube. Next, find and open el 83, and reduce it by 85%, and place it on the top left.

Lastly, add 3D drop shadows wherever you would like them to be....I like these settings: 2V 1H 70 op, 4B. Make sure at this point that you add the copyright information (VERY IMPORTANT)!!

You did it! You now have finished this tag. Finally, add a name in any font and color of your choosing. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial. If you did, please follow my blog and pass it along to others. If you make a tag using this tutorial, please send it to me at robynebutts@gmail.com, so I can place it on my blog.
