Please SAVE often!!

Let’s get started 

Open your mask from your supplies and save your mask into your
mask folder under C:/Program Files/Corel/Paint Shop/Masks.

Open a 550x550 transparent canvas. Flood fill white.

Open a paper of choice from the kit, I used: Paper 7

Paste as a new layer.

Load mask “Dead Sexy” included with supplies with these settings:

Right Click and Merge your mask layers.

Open a frame of choice from the kit.

I used: Frame-Red Stitched. Resize by 70%. Sharpen Once.
And paste as a new layer.

Open another paper of choice. I used Paper 3 from the kit. Paste as a new layer. Now
click on your frame layer to make active. Use your magic wand and select outside of the
frame. Leave Active. Now click on your paper layer and hit delete on your keyboard.
Now deselect. *To do this, Top tool bar, Selections, Select None.

 Now you will have the paper just under your frame.

Open your tube of choice. The tube I used is by Tony Mauro-Awakening

This comes with her on a rock or without. I used the one with the rock.
Right click, copy merged and paste as a new layer into your tag.
Drag this layer below your frame layer, position in the center.

Go back to the original tube layer, and crop just the top of the tube.
Copy Merged and paste into your tag as a new layer. Move this layer under your frame
layer and position to the left. Now Duplicate, Mirror. You will have the same image take
the right of the frame.

Now open your crop tool and crop the image to each edge/full size of the tag.
*This will get rid of any extra items left behind when you save.

Add any elements that you prefer from the kit. I used the leaves from the kit, resize this
by 80% and paste as a new layer. Position at the top of the frame, duplicate this layer, and
mirror. See mine to reference.

Open a razor of choice and paste as a new layer. I used Razor 4. Position to your liking
on the frame.Resize by 50%. Duplicate and Mirror.

Open up your word art provided in the supplies. Copy and Paste as a new layer at the
bottom of the tag. It was created using Font: DreamScar, Color #c00000 and Effect: Drip.

Now Copy and Paste another Frame as a new layer. I used: Frame-Red-Circle. Drag this
layer below all your layers except your mask and background layer.

Now create a circle to encircle the frame. Eclipse: Line Width 2, Foreground White, Back
ground null. Draw out a circle to just the edge of your round frame. Click on a raster
layer to make active.

This will create another vector when you start typing your text. Click on your text tool
and move up to where you want your font around the frame, your going to see an “A”
like below.

*This will let you know your going to be typing your font around the frame.

Now type out your name, in a gothic type font. I used: DreamScar. Font Size 36.

Foreground: Null, Background Color Code #c00000. Convert to a raster layer if your
happy of the placement of your name.

Now delete your eclipse (circle) vector layer.

Add a drop shadow to all of your layers except your background and mask layer.

Now add your copyright and watermark.

Save as a JPG or PNG.
