Masks by the Creative Misfits (SummerFunMF04Slow2011) and (Sparkle1-byjasforcm), which can be downloaded from 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 create our mask layers. Open whatever mask you choose to use; I have chosen 2 different masks by The Creative Misfits. Okay, in Paint Shop Pro (PSP) click FILE>OPEN>and open the 1st mask (SummerFunMF04Slow2011), or 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 chose to use a kit paper instead...I used paper 10....copy and paste the paper 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, leaving the size as is, place it centered on the tag...duplicate it to make it darker. Repeat this process for the second mask (Sparkle1-byjasforcm) except this time use paper 11...copy and paste it to the tag and center it on the previous 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.)***
Next, find and open the el 39, and leaving the size as is, place it centered, towards the bottom of the tag- but not all the way to the bottom, as you will need room for other elements around the bottom. Next, find and open the Bride tube, and place her with the gold dress...copy and paste her to the tag..reduce her by 55% and place her centered on the bench. Next, find and open the el 35, and leaving the size as is, place it behind the tube and bench. Now back to the original tube, and copy and paste on the tag again...place it, as is, behind the window...move it around til the face shows in the window...erase all extra.
Next, find and open the el 43, and leaving the size as is, place it behind the bottom of the bench. Next, find and open the el 27, and reduce it by 85%, and place it in the bottom right corner. Next, find and open the el 37, and reduce it by 75%, and place it centered at the bottom. Next, find and open the el 60, and reduce it by 90%, and place it on the left side, on the back of the bench.
Next, find and open the el 17, and leaving the size as is, place it on the right side, behind the bench and grass layers. Next, find and open the el 22, and reduce it by 25%, and place it on the right side, in front of el 17, but down and to the right a bit. Next, find and open the el 36, and leaving the size as is, and place it on the left side, in front of the window. Next, find and open the el 12, and reduce it by 80%, and place it on the bottom left.
Next, find and open the el 8, and reduce it by 40%, and place it on the left, beside the bench. Next, find and open the el 52, and reduce it by 85%, and place it on the bottom to the left of the rocks, in front of the bench layer. Next, find and open the el 54, and reduce it by 95%, and place it on the bottom right, to the left of the basket. Next, find and open the el 13, and reduce it by 95%, and place it on the bottom right, in front of the glass and basket. Next, find and open the el 57, and reduce it by 95%, and place it on the bottom right, to the left and in front of, the book.
Next, find and open the el 4, and reduce it by 90%, and place it in the bottom left corner. Next, find and open the el 59, and reduce it by 95%, and place it centered at the bottom right, in front of the rocks. Next, find and open the el 47, and reduce it by 20%, and flip it horizontally, and place it on the left side, behind the bird.
Next, find and open the el 20, and reduce it by 45%, and place it on the bottom right, in front of the bottom of the blue flowers. Next, find and open the el 48, and leaving the size as is, place it on the top right, behind the bench. Next, find and open the el 64, and reduce it by 95%, and place it on the bottom left.
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. If you did, please follow my blog and pass it along to others. If you make a tag using this tutorial, please send it to me at robynebutts@gmail.com, so I can place it on my blog.

***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 Addictive Templates. 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 09 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 60%, and place on the top right...duplicate and flip it horizontally and place it on the top right.
***(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. The papers should be as follows: paper 1 on rasters 1, c1, and 11, paper 9 on raster 16, paper 5 on raster 13, paper 7 on rasters 2 and 7, paper 10 on rasters 4, 10, and 12, and paper 15 on rasters 3 and 6.
Next, find and open the Spanish Girl tube by Alex Prihodko...place her in the violet pants and violet hair, make tattoo visible...merge visible layers. Copy and paste her to the tag...reduce her size by 30% and center her on the bottom of the tag. Now go back to the tube and copy and paste it to the right square..reduce it by 10% and center her face and invert...add a screen effect. Repeat on left square but flip it horizontally.
Next, find and open the el 59, and leaving the size as is, place it on the center, behind the tube and close ups. Next, find and open the el 58, and leaving the size as is, and place on top of the screen, in the middle of the close ups. Next, find and open the el 12, and reduce it by 40%, and place it on the top left. Next, find and open the el 31, and reduce it by 45%, and place it in the bottom left corner, under the tube.

Next, find and open the el 36, and reduce it to fit over both close ups. Next, find and open the el 42, and leaving the size as is, and place it in the top center. Next, find and open the el 32, and reduce it by 70%, and place it in the top right corner. Next, find and open the el 06, and reduce it by 85%, and place it on the right side, above the tube. Next, find and open the el 07, and reduce it by 85% and place it on the right side, on top of el 06.
Next, find and open the el 50, and reduce it by 90%, and place it in the top right corner of the right close up. Next, find and open the el 21, and reduce it by 90%, and place it in the top right corner of the left close up. Next, find and open the el 01, and leaving the size as is, place it on the top left. Next, find and open the el 17, and leaving the size as is, place it on the top right, to the left of the cross.
Next, find and open the el 30, and leaving the size as is, place it on the bottom, angled under the hour glass.

Mask # 84 from Wee Scott Lass
Template # 77 by Addictive Templates
Any color or gradient and font of your choosing
Okay, let's begin. The first thing you will need to do, is to open the template #77 from Addictive Templates. Next, let's create our mask. I have chosen a mask from Wee Scott Lass #84. Okay, in Paint Shop Pro (PSP) click FILE>OPEN>and open the mask you have chosen, then start a new image FILE>NEW>600x600 and transparent needs to be checked. For this tag, I have made a 2 layer mask. Choose color or gradient on the right side layers menu; I chose a metallic gold gradient for the first layer, and a metallic silver gradient for the second 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 move it and re-size it until you like how it appears. Repeat the process with the second, silver 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.)***
Now, let's add some other items to start adding depth and dimension to our tag! The first thing we want to do, is place papers on parts of our template. The following is where your papers should be. Paper 36 on rasters 3, c3, and 4, paper 77 on rasters 2, and c2, 6, c6, and 7, paper 71 on rasters 5 and c 5, paper 5 on raster 8. The next thing we want to do is to add our tube images. Find and open the full view tube image and make sure she is in the gold outfit..merge the layers and copy and paste her to your tag; reduce her size by 60% and center her on the bottom of the tag. Go back to the original version and erase/cut everything except her head and neck..copy and paste it to the tag...reduce it by 35% and flip it horizontally and place in the center on top of the raster 8 circle. Duplicate and reduce another 35% and place in the left circle; duplicate and flip it horizontally and place in the right circle..make sure and erase any extra. Make the 2 small circle pics black and white and then place a yellow gold filter on them. Open the el 29 frame and place it on top of all 3 close up images..again..erase anything overlapping the frames.
Next, find the El #36 flower and reduce it by 65% and place it on the right side on the top of raster 5; duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place on the top left. Next, find and open the El# 56 the candle in the box and reduce it by 75% and place in the bottom right corner, behind the tube. Next, find and open the El # 145 and reduce it by 70% and place in the bottom left corner behind the tube. Next, find and open the El # 120 and leaving the size as is, and place it on the bottom right; duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place on the left...make sure they are behind the tube layer.
Next, find and open the El # 49 and leaving size as is, and place on top of the mask on the bottom left; duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the bottom right behind the tube. Next, find and open the El #139 and reduce it by 90% and place it on the left side of the small pic in the forefront; duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place on the right side. Next, find and open the El# 68 bow and reduce it by 50% and place it on the top left, behind the frame and larger close up image, with the bow part showing; duplicate and flip it horizontally and place it on the top right.
Next, find and open the El # 38 the silver rose and reduce it by 90% and place it centered on the left in the center of the bow; duplicate and flip it horizontally and place in the center of the bow on the right. Next, find and open the El # 67 the star and reduce it by 85% and place it on the top right on top of the raster 22 frame; duplicate and flip it horizontally and place top left. Next, find and open the El # 163 branches and reduce it by 80% and place it on the right side, behind the hanging element, duplicate it and flip it horizontally and move over a bit...repeat process on other side. Next, find and open the El # 98 and reduce it by 95% and place it on the top left of the star; duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place on the right side. Next find and open El #167 the pine comb bunch on a stem and reduce it by 95% and place it on the left side to the left of the butterfly; duplicate and flip it horizontally and place it on the right side.
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)!!

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.
***(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.)***
Now, let's add some other items to start adding depth and dimension to our tag! The first thing we want to do, is place papers on parts of our template. The following is where your papers should be: paper 7 on raster 3, paper 6 on rasters 1 and 2, paper 10 on raster 8, paper 4 on rasters 6 and 7, and paper 11 on rasters 4, 5, 9, and 10.
The next thing we want to do is to start adding our elements to make this tag come to life!! The very first thing we will want to do is to add our Snowgirl tube by Alex_Prihodko. Okay, first find and open the tube and make sure you check the group 1 which will have a darker pink outfit...merge visible and copy and paste it to your tag in the forefront; reduce it by 40% and center it on the tag. Now go back to the original and erase/cut from the chest down and then place on the right circle...flip it horizontally, and decrease the size til it fits...duplicate and flip horizontally and place in the left circle...use the effects menu and make both close ups black and white.
Next, find and open the bow 2 and reduce it by 85% and place angled on the bottom left of the left circle close up pic; duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place on the right side. Next, find and open the pink feather and reduce it by 50% and place it on the right side, angled on top of raster 8; duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place on the left side. Next, find and open the diamond and reduce it by 90% and place angled in the center of both of the black bows. Next, find and open the rose 2 and reduce it by 80% and place one above each of the circle pics.
Next, find and open the flower and reduce it by 95% and place it beside the rose 2 on both sides. Next, find and open the love lock and reduce it by 90% and place on the left side; duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the right side. Next, find and open the snowbank and leaving the size as is, place it at the bottom, on the very back layer. Next, find and open the snow sparkle 2 and place it on the layer above the mask...duplicate and flip horizontally and cover the tag in quarters. Next, find and open the decor and reduce it by 80% and place on the left side of the tube's head; duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the right side of the tube's head. Next, find and open the kiss and reduce it by 80% and place one on each side on the bottom, going in opposite directions.
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)!!
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.
