Mask AR315Mask147CMC, by Creative Misfits, which can be downloaded on their blog 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 a mask by Creative Misfits. 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. I used a paper instead of a gradient...so copy and paste paper #9 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, reduce the size by 50%, and place on the top right...duplicate and flip it horizontally and place it on the top left... duplicate and place center bottom.

***(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 and filters to our template. In this kit, the papers and elements are really big; so, decrease the size of your papers by 85% before copying and pasting them. The papers should be as follows: paper 9 on the light blue circle, paper 3 on the small pair of blue circles, paper 10 on the blue dotted lines and circles and the yellow circles, and the white strips, paper 13 on the blue squares, and paper 6 on the yellow squares.

Next, find and open the Dana Spring tube by Sweet Pinups. Copy and paste her to the tag...reduce her size by 40% and center her on the bottom of the tag. Now go back to the tube and copy and paste it to the left square..reduce it to fit her face in the square...delete any that is over hanging in the next middle square..then invert it. Repeat this process for the right square, except flip her horizontally. Add a screen mode to both.

Next, find and open the el 34, and reduce it by 90%, and place it in the top left corner. Next, find and open the el 43, and reduce it by 95% and place it in the bottom left corner.

Next, find and open the el 47, and reduce it by 90%, and place it on the bottom right, behind the left side of the bear.
