Template - #148 by Elegant Inspirations, which can be downloaded on the blog HERE

Mask # 448 by Vix Masks, which can be downloaded HERE

PSP - I am using X5, but any should do

***This tutorial assumes you have a working knowledge of PSP***

Okay, let's begin. The first thing you want to do is open the template from Elegant Inspirations. Then, let's create our mask. Open whatever mask you choose to use; I have chosen mask #448 by Vix Masks. Okay, in Paint Shop Pro (PSP) click FILE>OPEN>and open the mask you have chosen, then start a new image FILE>NEW>700x700 and transparent needs to be checked. Choose color or gradient on the right side layers menu; I made this a 2 layer mask..for the 1st layer, I chose a multi red gradient and for the 2nd layer, I chose a black and white gradient....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, increasing the size and moving it around until you are happy with its position...repeat for 2nd layer.

***(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 next thing we want to do is to start adding our elements to make this tag come to life!! First, we need to put our papers on our template. The papers should be as follows: paper velvet 2 on the lt pink circles, and the lt pink circle 1, paper 1 on the white circles 4, paper 11 on the black squares, the black shapes, the grey circles, and the black circle, paper hearts on the pink squares and pink circle, paper velvet on the lt pink dotted squares, white dotted shapes, and lt pink dotted circles, and paper rose 2 on the white circle 2.

Next, find and open the Delilah poser tube by Designs by Norella and copy and paste the full-view tube onto the top layer of the tag...reduce her size by 45%, and place her on the left side of the tag. Next, go back to the original tube, and erase all from mid arm down and reduce it by 70%...copy and paste it onto the middle circle of the tag...flip it horizontally. Arrange it where you like and erase any extra.

Next, find and open the el JDD satin bows red and copy and paste it to the tag...reduce it by 70% and place it at the bottom of the close up. Next, find and open the el glitter hearts and copy and paste it to the tag...reduce it by 70% and place it at the top right of the tag...duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the top left...duplicate again and flip it vertically and place on the bottom left...duplicate one more time flipping it horizontally and place it on the bottom right...make sure they are all behind the close up layer.

Next, find and open the el red rose sample and copy and paste it to the tag...reduce it by 95% and place it on the left side. Duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place it on the right side. Next, find and open the el wine roses and copy and paste it to the tag...reduce it by 80% and place on the bottom right...flip it horizontally. Next, find and open the el valentines 1 rose and copy and paste it to the tag...reduce it by 90%, flip it horizontally and place it on the bottom right, behind the bow layer.

Next, find and open the el valentines flowing red ribbon and copy and paste it to the tag...reduce it by 65% and place it on the right side...duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place it on the left side. Next, find and open the el cupcake and reduce it by 90% and copy and paste it to the tag on the bottom right, to the left of the wine roses. Next, find and open the el love and reduce it by 90%, and then copy and paste it onto the tag, below the center bow, making sure it is on the layer above the bow. Lastly, find and open the el roses 2 and reduce it by 90%, and copy and paste it to the tag on the bottom right, to the left of the cupcake.

Lastly, add 3D drop shadows wherever you would like them to be....I like these settings: 2V 1H 70 op, 4B. Make sure at this point that you add the copyright information (VERY IMPORTANT)!!
