Mask #84 from Wee Scott Lass

Template #421 from Millie's PSP Madness

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 # 421 by Millie's PSP Madness. 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 light lavender and a pink toned 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 pink 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.)***

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 1 on raster 1, paper 5 on raster 2, paper 3 on raster 3, paper 12 on raster 4, paper 16 on raster 5, and paper 7 on rasters 6 and 7.

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 poser tube. First find and open the full view #4 of the Secret Santa poser; reduce her by 10% and center her on the tag. Now open the poser #7 and erase everything from her hand down; reduce her by 60% and place in the left circle...duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place in the right circle. make sure the two small pics are behind the full view poser.

Next, find and open the tree 2 and reduce it by 25% and place it on the layer behind the closeup on the right side. Next, find and open the present 3 and reduce it by 85% and place it in the bottom right corner; flip it horizontally and make sure it is in the forefront. Next, find and open the moose 1 and reduce him by 85% and place him in the bottom left corner. Next, find and open the present 1 and reduce it by 90% and place it to the right of the moose on the bottom left.

Next, find and open the house 1 and reduce it by 80% and place it on the left side, behind the close up. Next, find and open the bow 1 and reduce it by 85% and place it atop the tree. Next, find and open the star 3 and reduce it by 90% and place it in the top left area, to the left of the full view poser. Next, find and open the sparkles 1 and leaving the size as is place at the top right behind the layers the posers are on; duplicate it and flip it horizontally and place on the top right...repeat this process with sparkles 3.

Next, find and open the bow 3 and reduce it by 85% and place it in the top left corner, at an angle; make sure it is in the forefront. Next, find and open the bells 1 and reduce it by 95% and place in the center of the top left bow; again, make sure it is in the forefront. Next, find and open the bear 2 and reduce it by 90% and place it on the bottom right, to the left of the present, and behind the poser's foot.

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.
