Tutorial using the Autumn Bliss scrap kit by Scraps by Danielle, and featuring the Autumn Girl tube by Arthur Crowe.

Supplies Needed

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

The Autumn Bliss scrap kit by Scraps by Danielle, which can be purchased at Scraps by Danielle HERE

The Autumn Girl tube by Arthur Crowe, which can be purchased at the Arthur Crowe Factory 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 transparent, and make sure the transparent box is 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 adding a mask or paper to this tag. First, find and open the Autumn Girl tube and reduce her by 30% and place her centered on the tag. next, find and open the fan #4. Leave the size as is, and rotate it to be straight, and place it behind the tube. Now find and open the broom #3 and reduce it by 70% and place one on each side of the fan. Now find and open the hearts on a string #1 and reduce the size by 75% and place one on each side. use the side layers menu and slide the broos back to the forefront.

Now, let's add some other items to start adding depth and dimension to our tag! Now find the cat and reduce it by 80% and place it on the bottom right of the tag, near the tube's foot. Next, find and open the bow #1 and reduce it by 80%. Place it in the top left corner..duplicate it and flip it horizontally...repeat this process in the other 3 corners. Now find and open the sun flower #1 and reduce it by 90%, and place one in the center of each of the corner bows.

Now find and open the candle #1 and reduce it by 90% and place one on each side of the tube. Now find and open the leaf #1 and reduce it by 90% and place it on both sides at the top of the fan. Now find and open the leaf #3 and reduce it by 90% and place it on the top left of the fan. Now find and open candle #4 and reduce it by 80% and place them on the sides of candle 1, and bring candle 1 to the forefront. Now find and open the butterflies 1, 2, and 3 and reduce them by 90% and place the all on the top right of the tag. Lastly, find and open the autumn bliss flair and reduce it by 90% and place one underneath the candles on both sides.
