Tutorial using the Sign of the Gypsy Queen by BabyCake Scraps, featuring the Purple Shadow tube by Arthur Crowe.

Supplies Needed

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

The Sign of the Gypsy Queen scrap kit, which can be purchased at Bella Zingaro HERE

The Purple Shadow tube by Arthur Crowe, which is available for purchase at Arthur Crowe's 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 using a background paper for this tag. Now, find and open the Purple Shadow tube and hide all the tattoos signature, and background. Now reduce her size by about 45% and center her on the tag. Next, find and open the swag. Leave the size as it is, and center it on the tag, behind the tube. Next, find and open the rain. Leave the size as is and center it on the tag. Use the side layers menu and slide the swag back to the forefront.

Next, find and open the purple lace. Reduce the size by 89% and place it in the top left corner. Now...keep duplicating and moving over, until you have reached the other side. Now duplicate that end and flip it vertically...now duplicate and keep moving across the bottom, like you did on the top. Next, find and open the fiber beads and reduce it by 85%...add it to the top left on the center of the purple lace...repeat the process u used with the lace.

Next, find and open the splat, and reduce it by 70%..keep duplicating it and moving it around, until you are happy with the coverage and placement. Next, find and open the glitter trails. Reduce the size by 70% and place on the left side of the tube, hanging over the swag. Duplicate it and flip it horizontally, and place it on the right side. Next, find and open the gem curl. reduce the size by 80% and place it on the bottom left side of the swag...duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place it on the bottom right swag.

Next, find and open the silky bow #2 and reduce it by 80%. Place on in each of the four corners. next, find and open the brooch and reduce it by 90%, and place one in the center of each of the corner bows. Now find and open the angel wings. Leave the size as is, and center behind the tube. Lastly, open the sparkle trail #2 and reduce it by 40%. Keep duplicating and moving it around until you are happy with the placement.

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.
