Supplies Needed

The Rock My World scrap kit by Eclipse Creations, which is available for purchase at Sensibility Scrapping HERE

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

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 PSP-Pals. 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 bright yellow 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 #1 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 add some other items to start adding depth and dimension to our tag! Now find the emo girl poser and open her. Reduce the size by about 15% and place her centered on the tag. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the wire and open it, and then click EDIT>COPY> click on the Image 1 tab, then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Leave the size as is, and center it behind the poser...use the side layers menu to slide the poser back to the forefront. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the star and open it, then click EDIT>COPY> click on the Image 1 tab, then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Reduce the size by about 40% and place one in all 4 corners, making sure the sides are in opposite directions.

Okay now click FILE>OPEN> find the glitter and open it, then and reduce the size by 20%. Place it on the right side and then duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the left side...slide the fence to the forefront.

Now click FILE>OPEN> find the disco ball and open it, reduce their size by 60% and place one on the top right beside the star...now duplicate it and flip it horizontally and then place it on the top left beside the star. Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the music cross and open it and reduce the size by 60% and then place it on the left side...now duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the right side. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the speakers 2 and open it then click EDIT>COPY> click on the Image 1 tab again and then click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER.

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.
