Dream Sweet featuring I Love Candy an KiwiFireStorm

5:11 PM | Posted by Mommie2myboys | Edit Post

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 I love Candy by Wicked Princess Scraps.

Tube of choice, I used the art of ©KiwiFireStorm which requires a license which may be purchased at TPP.

Mask of choice, I used , KBH_2012_Mask6 and you may get it here.

Font of choice, I used Blairesque Curly JF.

Filters:

Xero ~ Porcelain

MuRa's Meister ~ Copies

Alien Skin Eye Candy 6 ~ Gradient Glow

Let's begin.

Open a new image, 750x750, you will re-size later.

Copy and paste a paper from your kit into your new image.

Apply a Gaussian blur of 10 to the paper. (Adjust, Blur, Gaussian Blur)

Apply your mask: Layers, Load/Save Mask, Load mask from Disk.

Merge group: Layers, Merge, Merge Group.

Duplicate, add another Gaussian Blur of 4 and change properties to Overlay.

Now place your tube as a new layer, and re-size as needed.

Add a Drop shadow of choice, I used 0,0,100,10.

Apply Porcelain with these settings:

Duplicate the tube layer and add a Gaussian Blur of 4.

Change the layer properties to overlay.

You should play with the properties and Porcelain settings until you reach something you like, or you can stick with my settings.

Using one of the candy elements from your kit and apply Copies with these settings:

Duplicate, mirror and repeat Filter settings until you achieve the desired result.

Apply your drop shadow of choice if desired.

Begin placing more elements from your kit around your tube as desired.

Add Drop Shadow and Gradient Glow as desired to elements.

Or you can duplicate and add a Gaussian Blur to achieve some different effects.

Gradient Glow Settings used on some elements such as the Cake:

Re-size, rotate and mirror elements as desired to create a tag unique to you.

Have fun with it.

Re-size tag, add your name and you have completed my tutorial.

Kaci's Kits & Kadoodles

Hi, I'm Kaci. Nope not that Kaci, the other one. I am still fairly new to PSPing compared to some and I love it!! I want to continue to learn so I can get better and continue making my own scrap kits. I love to make new friends so stop by and visit my little corner over here.

I'm still learning to blog too, so be patient while I figure this out, and I'm learning to do blog layouts, lol. I'm happy to have a few followers and look forward to more.

I've recently ventured into Digital scrap-booking store ownership with friends, so feel free to check out the links on the page.

I also love to knit, crochet (not really good at that just yet), read, cook, bake and learn new things. Most of what I post will probably be PSP related, but Iwill occasionally vent here too. Please leave a comment let me know what you think or if you want me to try something for a freebie.

I would love to see the results of my tutorials if you want to share. Please email them to me at kaciskitsnkadoodles@gmail.com. I look forward to seeing results of my tuts so come on email me lol!!!
