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 Holiday Glam by Sweet Addictionz Scraps.

Tube of choice, I used the art of ©Keith Garvey which requires a license which may be purchased at his store.

Mask of choice, I used x14, and if this is your work, please contact me so that I may credit you.

Font of choice, I used Santa's Big Secret.

Filter: 

Xero ~ Radiance

Xero ~ Porcelain

Eye Candy 4000 ~ Gradient Glow

Let's begin.

Open a new image, 750x750.

Begin placing Evergreen elements Flip and mirror to make a "mask" of evergreen.

Merge visible.

Copy and paste as a new layer a paper from your kit.

Apply your mask; Layers, Load/Save mask, Load Mask from disk.

Merge the group; Layers, Merge, Merge group.

Add a frame from your kit, position as desired, and add a drop shadow of choice, I used 0,0,100,12.

Now using elements of choice, re-sizing as needed between 30-80 add them around the frame.

Play with the settings on Porcelain to emphasize different elements and to deep colors.

Also add a drop shadow as desired.

Place your tube  adding a drops shadow of choice I used 0,0,100,10.

Apply Radiance with these settings or those that suit your tube:

Duplicate the tube layer and add a Gaussian Blur of 4 then change the properties to Soft light.

Adjust your elements as needed to compliment your tube.

Use the deform tool to assist in this process.

When necessary duplicate an element and move beneath an object and erase areas on the duplicate layer to blend the elements together.

Finally choose a word art from your kit and re-size as desired and place in your tag then apply a gradient glow of choice.

Play with this to insure that you will achieve your desired result.

Re-size, add your copyright and your name.
