This tutorial was written entirely by me, using PSP9, any resemblance to any other is purely coincidental.

This tutorial should work with any version of PSP.

This tutorial is written with the belief that you have a working knowledge of PSP, but is also suitable for beginners.

Materials you will need:

Scrap Kit of choice, I used Oh Lollipop by Crafted by Gina.

Tube of choice, I used the art of ©Myka Jelina which requires a license which may be purchased at her store here.

Mask of choice, I used Vix_Mask424, and you may get it here.

Font of choice, I used Marguerita LET .

Filter:

Xero - Bad Dream

Alien Skin EC Impact -Bevel

EyeCandy 4000 - Gradient Glow

Let's begin.

Open a new image, 750x750.

Copy and paste a paper from your kit into the image and apply your mask. (Layer, Load/save mask, Apply)

Merge your group. Place your tube and add a drop shadow of choice. I used 3,3,60,12.

Duplicate your tube and apply the same mask that you used for your paper to the original tube. Merge the group.

On the duplicate tube layer use your erase tool to erase hard edges and corners around your tube to fit to compliment the masked layer.

Apply Xero Bad Dream using these settings or those of your choice:

You can add a gradient glow of choice to your tube and any subsequent element desired.

Begin to place your elements, you may choose a scatter or bubble element and place beneath all mask layers duplicate, mirror and flip.

When placing your elements you may use your filters to enhance your elements to fit your vision.

If you are using my tag as a guide you may use the Bad Dream filter on the girl element of choice, and re-size by 75.

Add drop shadows as needed, you may use the settings above or you can use those of your choice.

You may add Bevel to the labels and your lollipops if desired.

Bad Dream will also add a bit more depth to your flowers and butterfly if desired.

If you do not have Bad Dream, you may brighten your elements and your tube by duplicating and adding a Gaussian Blur of choice then adjusting to overlay properties.

Once you have achieved your vision, re-size your tag.
