Mask #15 by Moonbeams & Spiderwebs

Template # 76 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 #76 from Addictive Templates. Next, let's create our mask. I have chosen a mask #15 for Moonbeams & Spiderwebs. 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. Choose color or gradient on the right side layers menu; I chose a metallic silver 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; increase the size by 30% and center on the tag, on the very back 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.

The next thing we want to do is to add our tube images. Find and open the full view tube image, and place her reduce it by 50% and place her centered, making sure her dress meets the bottom of the tag. Now open the close up view of the poser; open el # 76 the frame and reduce it by 80% and angle it...place it on the left side of the tube on the pink bar. Now, take the close up view and reduce it by 70% and place the pic inside the frame; using the effects menu make it a very light vignette.
