Mask #84 from Wee Scott Lass

Any color or gradient and font of your choosing

We will not be using a template for this tag. So Next, let's create our mask. I have chosen a mask #84 from Wee Scott Lass. Okay, in Paint Shop Pro (PSP) click FILE>OPEN>and open the 1st 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 made a 2 layer mask..for the first layer I did a pink dual toned gradient and a metallic silver gradient for the second and top layer....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! :) Just copy and paste it to the tag, and increase the size by 10%...move it around until you are happy with the amount that shows. Repeat the process with the silver layer mask.

***(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.)***

The first thing we want to do is to start adding our elements to make this tag come to life!! First find and open the el 31 and place it across the bottom; flip it horizontally, and stretch the sides all the way out. Next, open the el 2 gazebo and leaving it sized as is, place it on the center of the tag. Next, open the el 23 the mushrooms and reducing them by 80%, place it on the bottom right corner; duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place on the bottom left. Next, find and open the poser #353 and reduce her by 10% and place her on the left side of the tag, to the right of the mushrooms. Next, find and open the el 11 the pile of wood and reduce it by 80% and place it behind the mushrooms on the right side, up against the gazebo. Next, find and open the el 17 the blue cage and reduce it by 90% and place it atop the pile of wood.

Next, find and open the el 12 the fence and place it down at the bottom 1/2 under the snow and pull the sides out. Next, find and open the el 26 and leaving the size as is, place it on the left side behind the fence; duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place on the right side...duplicate and flip horizontally both. Next, find and open the el 10 the bench and reduce it by 70% and place it in the front center, at the bottom of the gazebo. Next, find and open the el 18 the candelabra and reduce it by 65% and place on the center of the bench. Next find and open the el 33 vase and reduce it by 95% and place one on either side of the candelabra.

Next, find and open the el 30 flower and reduce it by 95% and place them sporadically in the trees. Next, find and open the el 32 flower and reduce it by 95% and place 2 on each bottom corner; add one of the el 33 flower with each side. Next, find and open the el 29 and reduce it by 70% and place one on either side, in front of the gazebo. Next, find and open the el 46 the glittery curtain and place it at the top left and duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place top right.

Next, find and open the el 48 the snow and leaving the size as is, place it on the bottom right behind the gazebo; duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place it on the bottom left. Next, find and open the el 50 snowflake and reduce by 90% and place on each side of the top of the gazebo. next, find and open the el 36 deco and reduce it by 85% and place it in the center of the snowflakes. Next, find and open the el 37 bow and reduce it by 98% and place it in the poser's hair.

Lastly, add 3D drop shadows wherever you would like them to be. Make sure at this point that you add the copyright information (VERY IMPORTANT)!!
