The All I want for Christmas scrap kit by Scraps by Randys Sin, which is available for purchase at Berry Applicious HERE

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.)***

We will not be using a mask or a background paper for this tag. Okay the first thing you need to do is get your tree the blank canvas. Open it and reduce it by 20% and center it on the tag. Open the frame #1 and reduce it by 90%, and place it at the top of the tree. Next, find and open the Santa and reduce him by 40% and place on the left of the tree, and back a little. Now find and open bow #5 and reduce it by 80%, and place one in all 4 of the corners. Next open the holly and reduce it by 95% and place one in the center of each of the corner bows.

Now find and open the sexy elf #1 and reduce her by 70% and place her on the right side of the tree. Now find and open the gingy #1 and reduce it by 80% and place it at the very bottom of the tree, in the center. Now find and open the slinky dog #1 and reduce him by 75% and place him in the front left of the tree, in front of Santa. Now find and open the lolli #2 and reduce it by 90% and place at the top of each side. now find and open lolli #1 and reduce it by 90% and place one on each side, connecting it to the top lolli. Now find and open the bag #1 and reduce it by 75% and place it on the right side of the gingys.

Now find and open the sparkles #2 and reduce it by 50% and place angled at the top left corner...duplicate and flip horizontally and place on the top right. Use the side layers menu to slide them down so the items are in front of the sparkles. Now find and open the lantern #1 and reduce it by 90% and place it on the right of the bag. Now find and open the stocking #2 and reduce the size by 95% and place it angled on the left above Santa. Now find and open the stocking #1 and reduce it by 95% and place it angled above the elf on the right side. now find and open the candy cane @ and reduce it by 98% and place it behind the dog. Now open the candy cane #1 and reduce it by 98% and place behind bag. Lastly open the word art #1, and reduce it by 50% and place it centered at the bottom.

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.
