Welcome To Our Group by K. Wellman 09


This tutorial was written by me, K. Wellman on September 12, 2009 and is ©Kwellman Designs and any resemblance to another tutorial is purely coincidental.

This was written in PSPX

Supplies you will need:

3 images of choice.  I use the gorjuss artwork of Suzanne Woolcott.  You must have a license to use her work.  You can visit her Here to get a license.

FTU Scrapkit, Sweet Spring from SimplySensationalScraps, you can get it HERE

Template 235 by Missy. You can get her templates HERE

Mask 16 by Babes Designs..Get it Here

Are you ready..Get Set…Lets Go…

1. Open template, Shift D to duplicate and close original. Image Resize 500 x 357

2. Select blue square with your magic wand. Open paper 11, drag and drop onto your tag template as a new layer. Go to selections, Invert and hit the delete key. Then go to Selections, Select None.

3. Give drop shadow, I used 2,2,50 & 5 with color black, Use same dropshadow throughout this tut.

4. Select pink rectangle with magic wand, Open paper 13 and drag/drop as new layer onto your tag. Selections, Invert, Hit Delete Key, Selections None, Give Dropshadow

5. Repeats these same steps on each layer of template with your paper of choice until your template looks the way you want it.

6. Delete the I LOVE YOUR STYLE layer

7. Add wording of choice. I used the font JESTER and used the pick tool to size to my satisfaction. If you want your font outlined, make sure to change your stroke width to 1 or 2, or whatever looks best. You need your foreground color to be lighter than your background for this to look good.

8. Open your 3 images of choice.

9. Copy and Paste image one as a new layer. Using pick tool, move and position above middle frame. Right Click and Duplicate. Move this copy below your frame. Use the eraser tool to delete unwanted parts of the image from both layers.

10. Repeat this step for remaining two images and give all a dropshadow.

11. Open ladybug 5 and resize 50%. Drag/Drop as new layer. Right click on this layer, Arrange, Bring to top. Using pick tool position according to my tag. Tweak size with pick tool if needed and add drop shadow.

12. Open ButtonBow1 and resize 50%. Drag/Drop as new layer. Use pick tool to position and give drop shadow.

13. Open flower 4, resize 50%. Drag/Drop as new layer. Move below all frame layers. Use pick tool to position at left of tag, (see mine) right click and duplicate, Image, Mirror

14. Open Frog and resize 30%, Drag/Drop as new layer and position with pick tool. See my tag.

15. Add New Raster Layer and move above the white background layer. Flood fill with color of choice. Right click on the layer, New Mask Layer, From Image, Use drop down to choose your mask. Source Luminance checked, Invert mask data checked, click ok. Right click on layer and merge group. Use pick tool to size and position mask around your tag.

16. Add credits

17. I save all of my tags as pspimage with all layer intact in case I want to change something later at this point.

18. Delete the white background and right click on any layer and choose merge, merge visible and save as a PNG file.


I hope you have enjoyed my tutorial. I would love to see your work…You can email me at mschowwv@yahoo.com
