Tutorial using the Dancing in Love scrap kit by Disyas Digital Designs

Supplies Needed

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

The Disyas Digital Designs Dancing in Love scrap kit, which can be purchased at Sensibility Scrapping HERE

Any color or gradient and font of your choosing

Any mask 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 metallic silver gradient 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 #7 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, so the mask is on the top.

Now, let's add some other items to start adding depth and dimension to our tag! Now find the MediEvil Heartsong poser #3, and open her , Reduce her size by 15% and center her on the tag. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the El#16 bow and open it, decrease the size by about 80% and place on the top right corner...duplicate and flip it horizontally and place in the top right corner...duplicate and place in bottom left corner...duplicate and flip horizontally and place on the bottom right corner. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the El nat 9 red rose and open it, reduce the size by 85% and place one in the center of each corner bow, making sure the sides are going in opposite directions. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the El# 16 fan and open it... increase the size by 20% and place it centered behind the poser.

Okay now click FILE>OPEN> find the EL #12 pink ballet shoes and reduce the size by 25% and place it on the right side..duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the left side. Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the red box with white bow and open it...reduce it by 80% and place it on the bottom left side of the poser. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the book #1 and open it....reduce size by 90% and place it on the bottom of the red gift box.

Okay now click FILE>OPEN> find the EL# 16 the bear in the box and open it, and decrease size by 80% and place on the bottom right. Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the El#21 curtain and open it...reduce the size by 80% and place it at the top of the tag...reduce the size by 45% and then pull the sides out til it goes from one side to the other ..then use the side layers menu and slide the bows and roses back to the forefront. Now find tag #6 and open it, decrease the size by 85%, and place it angled on the right bottom area of the box the bear is in.

Okay now click FILE>OPEN> find the El#26 lantern and open it, decrease the size by 90% and place on the top left on curtain...duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on right side of curtain. Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the EL#25 and open it,leave the size as is, and place on the top right, then duplicate and flip it horizontally and place it on the top left...use the side layers menu and slide the poser, book, boxes, and bear back to the forefront. Now find the EL#29 heart with key and open it, and reduce the size by 90% and place it on the left side of the box with the teddy in it.

Now find EL #30 key and open it.....reduce its size by 95%, and place on the left top side of the red gift box. Now find I heart U word art and open it, reduce the size by 90% and place on the bottom left side under boxes and stuff...then duplicate and flip it horizontally and place it on the bottom right side under the box and things.

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.
