Tutorial using the July Birthstone scrap kit by BLT Dezignz 

Supplies Needed

Paint Shop Pro - I am using X5, but any should do


The July birthstone scrap kit by BLT Dezignz, which can be purchased at Scrappin Dollars    HERE


Any color or gradient and font of your choosing

Any mask of your choosing

Okay, let's begin. The first thing you will need to do, is to start a new image in Paint Shop Pro (PSP for short). To do this, look at the top left corner, and click on FILE>NEW> a pop up will open...set width and height to 600, make background white, and make sure the transparent box is not checked. Click okay, and you now have a blank size base for your tag, already sized and ready to go.

***(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.)*** 

I have chosen a mask from 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>600x600 and transparent needs to be checked.  Choose color or gradient on the right side layers menu; I chose a purple gradient 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! :) Now, let's add a nice paper to add some color to your tag. To do this, click on FILE>OPEN> find paper #16 and open it, then click on the pick tool on the tool menu on the left (it looks like an arrow)..a white dotted line will surround the paper, now click EDIT>COPY> find the image 1 tab at the top and click on it...you will do this every time to paste new items as you want to keep building on Image 1 (this is your tag), now click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Decrease the size to fit. Slide the mask to the layer the paper is on, so the mask is on the top. Now keep duplicating the mask over and over again...on the sides flip it horizontally and just duplicate over and over until you are happy with how it looks. 


Now, let's add some other items to start adding depth and dimension to our tag!  Now find  the July cookie poser, and open her , Reduce her size by 55% and center her on the tag. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the chair and open it, decrease the size by about 75% and place on the center of the tag...sit the poser on the chair. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the  bow #4 and open it, reduce the size by 85% and place one in each of the 4 corners. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the gem  and open it... decrease the size by 85% and place one centered on each of the 4 corner bows. 

 Okay now click FILE>OPEN> find the violin and reduce the size by 80% and place it on the bottom left side of the chair.  Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the heart #2 and open it...reduce it by 70% and place it on the right side, then duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the right side. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the star and open it....reduce size by 90% and place one on the top right and one on the bottom left.  

Okay now click FILE>OPEN> find the button #2 and open it, and decrease size by 95% and place on the center of the stones on the corner bows.  Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the cupcake and open it...reduce the size by 90% and place it on the bottom right side of the poser.  Now find the butterfly #2 and open it, decrease the size by 90%, and place one at the top of both hearts on the bows.

Okay now click FILE>OPEN> find the scatter and open it,  leave the size as is and place on the left side of the tag...duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the right side. Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the ribbon #3 and open it, reduce the size by 95% and place it on all 4 sides of the tag. 

You did it! You now have finished this tag. You will need to add copy wright info to your tag, as it is the law. Finally, add a name in any font and color of your choosing.

I have chosen a mask from HootyTuts.  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 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! :) Now, let's add a nice paper to add some color to your tag. To do this, click on FILE>OPEN> find paper #3 and open it, then click on the pick tool on the tool menu on the left (it looks like an arrow)..a white dotted line will surround the paper, now click EDIT>COPY> find the image 1 tab at the top and click on it...you will do this every time to paste new items as you want to keep building on Image 1 (this is your tag), now click EDIT>PASTE AS NEW LAYER. Decrease the size to fit. Slide the mask to the layer the paper is on, so the mask is on the top. 


Now, let's add some other items to start adding depth and dimension to our tag!  Now find  the Happy Dana tube by Sweet Pinups and open her , reduce her size by 65%, and then center her on the tag.  Now click FILE>OPEN> find the El #26 metal net screen and open it, increase the size by about 15% and place it centered behind the poser...use the side layers menu to slide the tube back to the forefront, if needed.  Now click FILE>OPEN> find the El#2 flowers with skulls and open it, reduce the size by 80% and place one in each of the 4 corners.  

 Okay now click FILE>OPEN> find the EL #50 spiderweb and open it, leave the size as is and center it on the tag...ow use the side layers menu and slide the tube back to the forefront.  Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the El#28 and open it...reduce it by 80% and place in the top right area...duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the lower left...make sure they are both sort of at an angle. Now click FILE>OPEN> find the El#18 and open it....reduce size by 80% and place it on the bottom left of the tube. 

Okay now click FILE>OPEN> find the El #37 shoes and open it, and decrease size by 85% and place on the bottom right of the corset, slide to forefront. Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the El#23 cupcake and open it...reduce the size by 85% and place it on the bottom right side of the tube. Now find the El#1 and reduce by 25% and place on the left side..duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the right...use the side layers menu and slide it to the forefront. 

Okay now click FILE>OPEN> find the EL#39 and open it, leave the size as is and place on the left side; duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the right side...use the side layers menu and slide the corner flowers back to the forefront. Now Click FILE>OPEN>find the El#2 and open it, reduce the size by 85% and place it angled behind the corset.  Now find the EL#34 cupcake cherries and open it, reduce the size by 80% and then place it at the top left at an angle...duplicate and flip it horizontally and place on the right side at an angle. Now find the EL#7 and open it, and reduce the size by 85% and place on the bottom right by the cupcake. Now find El#5 and open it, reduce the size by 95% and then place it between the cupcake and the hairspray...use the side layers menu to make the cupcake in the front..and this element in front of the hairspray. Now find El# 46 the lick me bottle cap and open it, reduce the size by 75% and place on the left side, above the corset; use the side layers menu to slide the corset to the forefront. Now find El# 13 and open it, reduce it by 80% and place on the bottom right behind the tube and the cupcake.

You did it! You now have finished this tag. You will need to add copy wright info to your tag, as it is the law. Finally, add a name in any font and color of your choosing.
