Angels Tears (PTU) featuring Zindy & CBJ Scraps

10:05 AM | Posted by Mommie2myboys | Edit Post

This tutorial was written entirely by me, using PSP-9, 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 Angels Collection by CBJ Scraps.

Tube of choice, I used the art of ©Zindy S.D. Nielsen which requires a license which may be purchased at her store.

Font of choice, I used Hipsters Script Pro.

Filters:

Xero ~ Mistifier

Xero ~ Radiance

Let's begin.

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

Place your tube in the center of the image, and add a drop shadow of 0,0,100,12 or those setting of your choice.

Using your erase tool on a very soft brush with Density on 80 and Opacity on 44 soften the edges of your tubes if necessary/desired.

Duplicate your tube layer.

On on original layer apply Mistifier with these settings:

On duplicate layer apply Radiance with these settings:

Now change properties to soft light and adjust transparency to 60.

If these settings don't suit your tube play with them so you can achieve your desired result.

Choose a filigree (swirl)or frame of choice from your kit, I used a filigree (swirl) and duplicated and mirrored it behind your tube layers.

Once you have created the background of choice merge your filigree layers together and add a drop shadow as above or that of your choice.

Using the filigree(swirl) use the deform tool to rotate in front of your tube layers and add your drop shadow.

Using the cloud element from your kit duplicate and rotate behind the "frame" (swirls/filigree)layer

Now being placing some "lights" around your tube & "frame".

Place elements of choice around to create your tag.

I used ribbons(fabric),flowers, keys, and bows.

Position your elements as desired, for your flowers duplicate and re-size as needed.

Once you've got the elements as desired &used your erase tool to blend the elements together; apply Mistifier to your flower layers.

When using the filter play with the settings on each flower layer for variation in shading & clarity.

Re-size, add your copyright and your name.

You have completed my tutorial.

Thanks for trying it out.

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!!!
