Calm Winter-PTU


For this tutorial, you’ll need a working knowledge of PSP.
I’m using PSP X4 but any version should work. 
This tutorial is my own and any resemblance to any other is purely coincidental.
Supplies for this tutorial:
PSP (any version)
PTU Scrap kit-Snow Cold here: http://sinfullycreativescraps.blogspot.com/

Tube by Suzanne Woolcott here: http://www.gorjussarthome.com/store/ 
You MUST have a valid license to use these tubes!

 ::Let’s begin::
Open the template
Resize it if you’d like to 
(I cropped and resized by 80%)
Delete layers you don’t want to use, including the © layer
Copy papers from the kit and fill each part of the template with them.
You could also flood fill the template shapes with colors to match the kit/tube.
Add drop shadow to each part of the template as you go
In your little circles you want to put close ups of your tube.
Select the circle
Select all
Float
Defloat
Past your tube and position
Selections
Invert
Delete
Select none
Mirror and place on the other side in the other small circle
Merge those two close ups
Change blend mode to Luminance legacy
(you might want to play around with the blend modes to see which you like best)
Now copy and paste all the elements you’d like t include in your tag.
You’ll have to resize them to fit them into your canvas size.
I used the following:
Tree (x4)
Snowflakes
Ornament with ribbon 
Snow 
Add drop shadow to each element you add.
Once you’re done, copy and paste your tube
Add drop shadow

New Christmas kit!

Got a new kit up in all three stores.
I didn't know what to name it but I was listening to Christmas music when I was finishing it up & the next song that came on was 
"A little Christmas"
--That's how the kit got its name! LOL--

Anyhow, it's tagger-sized
43 Elements and 8 papers

Find it:
