Layer some of your flower elements and use the deform or free rotate tool to help position your layers for best effect.

Some elements will require re-sizing between 30-50 to fit if you use my tag as a guide, or you could use your vision.

Emphasize some of your elements by duplicating then adding a Gaussian blur of 3 and adjusting the properties between overlay or soft light.

Place your tube and add a drop shadow.

If you are using a full size tube apply the same mask that you used on the paper then your erase tool to blend.

If you are using a close up tube use your erase tool to blend.

You may apply Radiance with these settings or those of your choice:

At times clicking random on the Radiance allows you to find a setting that may better suit the tube of your choice.

Finish adding your elements around your tube and adjust to suit what looks best to you.

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!!!
