This tutorial is written for those with a working knowledge of PSP.

I used version 9 but any should work.

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

Materials needed:

Scrap kit of Choice, I used Angel's Designz I heart Elias kit.

Tube (or tubes) of choice, I used the art of ©Elias Chatzoudis, you need a license to use his work and it may be purchased at MPT.

Font of choice, I chose Amethyst Script

Let's begin.

Open a new image 750x750 you may resize later.

Now choose a splat or glitter from your kit, I chose the glitter element form mine resize 125.

Next I chose the mesh element from my kit, but if you'd like you could choose a paper and add a mask,

then merge group and adjust as desired over the glitter layer.

Free rotate the mesh layer to the right 45 or as desired to suit your vision.

Now choose a frame for your tag, I chose frame 5. Click inside of the frame using your magic wand tool.

Choose a paper from your kit copy and paste as a new layer, invert, delete, invert again.

Move the paper layer under your frame layer, and add a drop shadow of choice to your frame layer (3,3,90,13).

Now you can copy and paste your tube or tubes of choice within the frame, inverting and deleting as needed.

Next add a drop shadow of choice to your tube or tubes( same as above). I then merged down the layers together to make moving anything easier, but it isn't necessary.

Now I added another tube above yet behind the frame layer and the merged tube and paper layer. I added the same drop shadow as well.

Now is time to play with your elements... you choose elements that are fun and compliment your tag.

I used string, hearts, and stars resized as needed. Be creative and try something new, or you could use my tag as a guide.

Add your copyright, resize and add your name.

Thank you for trying out 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!!!
