I am just now getting around to making these kits available for you. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will load more of my old kits as find the time and as I go through them to make sure everything in them is okay to use in an FTU kit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Same rules apply with these kits:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
•Please don't share---they're free, what's the point?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
•Don't claim anything as your own. A lot of the elements I did make myself so don't say you made something you didn't.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
•Link back to my blog :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are the kits I'm posting today. Click the previews for download.</div>

Hi all! In case you hadn't noticed, I have been MIA from the PSP world for several months now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I haven't been designing kits or making tags/tuts since May!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to let you know that my kits are no longer available in stores, if they are up--Please DO NOT purchase them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will be going through and seeing what I can make FTU to share with you here on the blog!<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
IF I get back into the PSP community, I will only offer FTU kits & tags/tuts as I can get to them!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wishing you all well!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
♥</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For this tutorial, you’ll need a working knowledge of PSP.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I’m using PSP X4 but any version should work. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This tutorial is my own and any resemblance to any other is purely coincidental.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Supplies for this tutorial:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
PSP (any version)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
PTU Scrap kit-Snow Cold here: http://<a href="http://sinfullycreativescraps.blogspot.com/">sinfullycreativescraps.blogspot.com/ </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Template 133 <b><a href="http://elegantinspirations.blogspot.com/2012/12/new-template-ei133.html">HERE</a></b> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Tube by Suzanne Woolcott here: <a href="http://www.gorjussarthome.com/store/">http://www.gorjussarthome.com/store/</a> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You MUST have a valid license to use these tubes!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Do NOT use without a license!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Mask of choice</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
::Let’s begin::</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Open the template</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Resize it if you’d like to </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(I cropped and resized by 80%)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Delete layers you don’t want to use, including the © layer</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Copy papers from the kit and fill each part of the template with them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You could also flood fill the template shapes with colors to match the kit/tube.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Add drop shadow to each part of the template as you go</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In your little circles you want to put close ups of your tube.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Select the circle</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Select all</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Float</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Defloat</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Past your tube and position</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Selections</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Invert</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Delete</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Select none</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Mirror and place on the other side in the other small circle</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Merge those two close ups</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Change blend mode to Luminance legacy</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(you might want to play around with the blend modes to see which you like best)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now copy and paste all the elements you’d like t include in your tag.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You’ll have to resize them to fit them into your canvas size.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used the following:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Tree (x4)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Snowflakes</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ornament with ribbon </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Snow </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Add drop shadow to each element you add.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once you’re done, copy and paste your tube</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
