Tutorial using the Unleashed my Dark Side scrap kit by Brattys Dezinz

Supplies Needed

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

The Unleashed my Dark Side scrap kit, which can be purchased at Etsy 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 paper or mask in this tag. To start, we will add our poser. Open the Jax poser and reduce her by 20% and center her on your tag. Now find and open the grid #1 and reduce it by 65% and place it at an angle, behind the tube. Next, find and open the dark doodle #3 and reduce it by 45% and place it at the bottom of the tag. use the side layers menu ans slide it behind the poser.

Now let's find and open the dead tree #2 and reduce it by 25% and center it behind the poser, but in front of the grid. Next, open the dark clouds #3 and reduce it by 80%. Place one in the top right corner...duplicate, flip horizontally and place in the top left corner. Now open dark clouds #2 and reduce by 70% and place on both top corners, overlapping the dark clouds.

Next, find and open the E2 and leave the size as is, and center it on grid area. Duplicate it and flip it horizontally, and slide it behind the tree and grid. Next, find and open the dragon #2 and reduce it by 50%. Place it on the bottom right then duplicate, flip horizontally and add to bottom left.Now find and open the dark birds #2 and reduce them by 75% and place them at the top right corner, making sure to slide them to the forefront...duplicate it and flip it horizontally, duplicate again and flip it vertically...repeat this process on the top left side. Now open the beads #3 and leave the size as is. Place it on the right side, then duplicate, flip it horizontally and place it on the left side. Use the side layers menu and slide the dragons, clouds, and birds back to the forefront.

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.
