Happy New Year by K. Wellman Designs

This tut was written by me on Dec 27, 2009 and any
similarities to any other is pure coinsidence.

This was written in PSP X and although I have tried to
give some detail, it does assume you have knowledge of psp.

Supplies Needed:  Template by me..you can grab it HERE

                             download it at her blog HERE

I am using the wonderful artwork of Suzanne Woolcott.  You need
a license to use her work and you can get one HERE

Let's get started...

1.  Open my template and delete the copyright layer

2.  Using your magic wand, select the large gray oval.  Copy and
paste a paper of choice from the kit as a new layer above this one. 
Go to selections, Invert, hit your delete key, then selections, select
none.

3.  Repeat number 2 for the white oval. 

4.  Add a new raster layer and flood fill white.  Move to bottom. If you
prefer a transparent background you may delete this later, but it helps you
see more of what your tag will look like.

5.  Open your mask.   Open paper 3 and copy/paste as new layer and move
above white background layer.  Right click on paper layer, New mask layer,
from image.  Choose your mask from drop down menu..Check source
luminance and invert mask data..hit ok and merge the group.  Use pick tool
and size mask to suit yourself.

6.  Copy and Paste fireworks 2 as a new layer above your mask layer.

7.  Copy and Paste image of choice and place where you choose on tag.

8.  You may add elements according to my tag or ones of your choice..

9.  Give everything a nice drop shadow..I used 3,3, 50 and 5 with black.

10.  Image resize 550 x 550.  Add copyrights and name, save as png..
