Tutorial using the Dazzling Diamonds tagger kit by Queen Brat Digital Designs 

Supplies Needed

Paint Shop Pro - I am using X5, but any should do

The Dazzling Diamonds Tagger kit by Queen Brat Designs, which can be purchased at the Queen Brat Digital Design's shop   HERE

Any mask of your choosing, I chose a mask from Aimoo

Any color or gradient and font of your choosing

Okay, let's begin. The first thing you will need to do, is to start a new image in Paint Shop Pro (PSP for short). To do this, look at the top left corner, and click on FILE>NEW> a pop up will open...set width and height to 600, make background white, and make sure the transparent box is not checked. Click okay, and you now have a blank size base for your tag, already sized and ready to go.

***(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.)*** 

I have chosen a mask from Aimoo.  Okay, in Paint Shop Pro (PSP) click FILE>OPEN>and open the mask you have chosen, then start a new image FILE>NEW>600x600 and transparent needs to be checked.  Choose color or gradient on the right side layers menu; I chose a red and black gradient...flood fill the new blank image with the color or gradient..the flood fill is the paint bucket shape. 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! :) Now, let's add a nice paper to add some color to your tag. To do this, click on FILE>OPEN> find paper #13 and open it, then click on the pick tool on the tool menu on the left (it looks like an arrow)..a white dotted line will surround the paper, now click EDIT>COPY> find the image 1 tab at the top and click on it...you will do this every time to paste new items as you want to keep building on Image 1 (this is your tag), now click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Decrease the size to fit. Slide the mask to the layer the paper is on in your side layers menu, so your mask is on top.

Now, let's go ahead and add our poser, as we will be building everything else around her. Okay, click FILE>OPEN> find your full view of your Marilyn #3 poser, and open her then click EDIT>COPY> click on the Image 1 tab again, and then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Reduce her size by 45% and place her centered on the tag.  Now click on the bow #5 white bow and open it, then click EDIT>COPY> Click on the Image 1 tab again and then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Reduce the size by 80% and place in top left corner. Now duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place in the top right corner. Duplicate again and place this one in the bottom left corner. Duplicate the top left one, and place it in the bottom right corner.

Now, let's add some other items to start adding depth and dimension to our tag! Click FILE>OPEN> find the border #4 and open it , Reduce the size by 85% and place all the way across the very top of the tag. Use the side layers menu, and slide your bows back to the forefront. Now duplicate the top border and then flip it vertically, and place it at the bottom of the tag. Again, use the side layers menu to slide the bows back to the forefront.  Now click FILE>OPEN> find the button #2  and open it, then click EDIT>COPY> click on the Image 1 tab, then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER.  Reduce the size by 90% and place one in the center of each of the corner bows. Now use the side layers menu to slide the buttons to the forefront.  Now click FILE>OPEN> find the star cluster 2 and open it, then click EDIT>COPY> click on the Image 1 tab, then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Reduce the size by 25%. Place it behind the poser, and once again, use the side layers menu and slide the poser to the forefront.  

 Okay now click FILE>OPEN> find the butterfly #1 and open it, then click EDIT>COPY>click on the Image 1 tab again then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Reduce the size by 90% and place  it on the left side, near the center of the tag. Then duplicate the butterfly and flip it horizontally, and place it on the other side of the tag. them sporadically on the tag. Okay, click FILE>OPEN>find the white rose and open it and then click EDIT>COPY>click on the image 1 tab and then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Reduce the size by 90%  and place it on the right side. Now duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place it on the left side. 

Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the bag #5 and open it then click EDIT>COPY> click on the Image 1 tab again, and then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Reduce the size by 80% and place in the bottom right-hand corner. Now duplicate it, flip it horizontally, and place it in the bottom left corner. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the boot #3 and open it then click EDIT>COPY> click on the Image 1 tab again and then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Decrease the size by 90% and place it on the right side by the bag, and then duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place it on the other side by the bag. Use the side layers menu to make sure the boots are in front.


Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the diamond border #2 and open it then click EDIT>COPY> click on the Image 1 tab again, and then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Reduce the size by 75% and place it across the top of the tag..now duplicate it and flip it vertically. You will now have 2 rows connecting in swirls. Now duplicate and add to the bottom of the tag. Duplicate this one and flip it vertically. Now there should be 2 at the top, and 2 at the bottom.   Now click FILE>OPEN> find the ribbon #9 and open it then click EDIT>COPY> click on the Image 1 tab again and then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Decrease the size by 90% and place it on the right side above the rose, duplicate it and flip it vertically and place this one under the rose. Repeat this process on the left side of the tag by the rose. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the lipstick and open it then click EDIT>COPY> click on the Image 1 tab again and then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Decrease the size by 90% and place it on the right side bottom by the boot. Duplicate it and flip it horizontally, and place it on the left side by the boot. 

You did it! You now have finished this tag. You will need to add copy wright info to your tag, as it is the law. 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.



Hugs and blessings,
