The Alice tube by Ninaste/Beehive, which can be purchased at Beehive Studio HERE

Template - #142 by Elegant Inspirations, which can be downloaded on the blog HERE

Mask #365 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 #365 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. Copy and paste paper 5 to the new image. 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.

***(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 8 on black squares 1, black circle, and black squares 2, paper 6 on light pink squares, pink circle, and pink squares, and paper 10 on white squares 2 and the white circle.

Next, find and open the Alice tube #1, with pink hair and the teapot and cup...reduce her size by 40% and center her on the tag. Next, open Alice tube 3, with black hair and NO teacup or tea pot...reduce it by 80% and place it on the left side of the full-view...duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the right side...erase any extras. Add a simple canvas texture to close ups with the following settings: smoothness 0, depth 0, ambiance 20, shininess 20, angle 315, intensity 50, and elevation 30.

Next, find and open the el 108, and leaving the size as is, place it in the top right corner on top of the mask layer)...duplicate it and flip it horizontally and vertically, and place it on the bottom left corner. Next, find and open the el 116, and leaving the size as is, place it behind the tube's feet, and over to the right a bit. Next, find and open the el 03, and reduce its size by 80%, and place it in the bottom right corner.

Next, find and open the el 90 and reduce it by 60%, and place it in the top right corner. Next, find and open the el 5 and reduce it by 60%, and place it in the top left corner. Next, find and open the el 55, and reduce it by 40% and place it on the left side, behind the close up layer. Next, find and open the el 44 and reduce it by 60%, and place it on the bottom left. Next, find and open the el 50 and reduce it by 70%, and place it on top of the tube's legs...duplicate it 4 times.

Next, find and open the el 06 and reduce it by 75%, and place it on the top left, on top of the close up. Next, find and open the el 20 and reduce it by 75%, and place it in the bottom right corner. Next, find and open the el 72, and reduce it by 90%, and place on the right side top of the table. Next, find and open the el 111 and reduce it by 95%, and place it in the center of the table. Next, find and open the el 65, and reduce it by 95%, and place it on the left top of the table.

Next, find and open the el 113 and reduce it by 90%, and place on the bottom left of the rabbit. Next, find and open the el 24 and reduce it by 35%, and place it angled on the right bottom. Next, find and open the el 117 and reduce it by 95%, and place it on the corners of the close ups. Next, find and open the el 66 and reduce it by 80%, and place it on the bottom right.

Next, find and open the el 19 and reduce it by 95% and place it on the bottom right next to the other mushroom. Next, find and open the el 105, and leaving the size as is, place it at the top, behind the tube. Next, find and open the el 26 and reduce it by 85%, and place it angled in the top left corner. Next, find and open the el 43 and reduce it by 95%, and place it in the center of the bow. Next, find and open the el 119 and reduce it by 95%, and place it angled on the top right, on the striped limb.

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)!!

You did it! You now have finished this tag. Finally, add a name in any font and color of your choosing. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial.
