Tripped Devilish Bitch!

This tutorial was written by me. Any resemblance or

similarity between this or any other tutorial

is purely accidental and coincidence.

To begin we will first need to gather our supplies:

You will need a tube of choice, I am using the inspired work of

Alpio Stanchi which can be found at Artistically Inclined Licensing HERE

A scrap kit Devilish Bitch by Coyotie Designs which can also be

purchased at AIL HERE

We will be using a few effects and plug ins to include

Xenofex

Eye Candy 3

and Drop Shadow which comes standard with most versions of PSP

Now that we have our supplies together we are ready to begin.

1. Open a blank canvas 700 x 700 transparent (please be sure pixels/inch is set to 72)

2. From the Devilish Bitch scrap kit open from Elements cds_db_wire, then Copy

and paste as a new layer on your canvas

3. Now from your Devilish Bitch pick a frame that works well with your tube

I am using cds_db_frame2 and position where you think works best

4. Go to effects, Eye Candy 3, Inner Bevel, now use a bevel that you feel works best.

5. Copy and paste your tube as a new layer (you may need to resize slightly)

6. Move your tube so that it sits well within or over the frame.

7. Add a drop shadow of choice to your tube

8. Now go to layers, Duplicate your tube layer

9. Move your duplicate layer below your frame layer

10. Making your original tube layer active use you eraser brush to remove

any sections of the tube on the bottom of the frame so that it appears the tube

is coming out of the frame.

11. Go back to your duplicate layer and still using your eraser brush remove

any portions of the tube below the bottom line of the frame.

12. Make your frame layer active, using your magic wand feather zero, select inside

your frame.

13. Pick a paper from the Devilish Bitch kit which matches or compliments

your tube then past as a new layer, move this paper below your duplicate tube layer.

14. Go to selections, modify, expand by 3, then invert selection and delete

15. No select none, and make invisible all but your paper, duplicate tube, frame

and original tube layers

16. Go to Layers, Merge, Merge Visible.

17. Make all layers visible once more and be sure your Wire layer is active

18. Using your magic wand, tolerance 3, feather 15 select outside of your wire

19. Go to selections, modify, expand by 10

20, Selections, Invert

21. Now choose another paper from the Devilish Bitch Kit, make your background layer

active, and add your paper as a new layer.

22. Now press delete this should erase the area outside of the wire on your paper, and

give a look of the paper fading toward the outside.

23. Go to selections, Select none

24. Go to adjust, blur, radial blur set to twirl with a strength of 45

25. At this point you can make your background layer invisible

26. Go to Layers, Merge, Merge Visible

27. You can make you background layer visible again

28. With your merged layer active, go to Image, Resize, (make sure

all layers is not selected), Resize by 85%

29. Now add a few elements as you like

30. Merge everything together, go to Image, Resize, All layers selected

resize to 420 x 420 pixels.

31. Go to Adjust, Sharpen

32. Now add Copyright Info and Name, save and your done!

Have a wonderful day!

8. Go to effects, Plug Ins, Eye Candy 3, Inner Bevel

use a bevel setting that feels right to you for a picture frame.

9. Using your magic wand Tolerance 0, Feather 0

select the inside of your frame.

10. Go to selections, modify, expand, expand by 3

11. Create a new raster layer, and move this layer below your frame

12. Now pick another color of choice, from your tube or if you

wish contrasting, and flood fill.

13. Go to selections, select none

14. Create New Raster layer, and create your word art inside your frame, or

if you are using ready made word art place it now, resize and position

within your frame.

15. Once you have your word art positioned comfortably within your frame

go to layers, merge, merge down.

16. Go to effects, Texture Effects, Texture, Canvas Simple

using the same settings as before

17. Go to your layer pallet and select your frame layer, then go to layers, merge, merge down

18. Make your color background layer active, and create new raster layer.

19. Flood fill this layer with a color of your choosing

20. This is where you add your mask layer. If you are using an installed mask

go to layers, load save mask, if you are using a .jpeg mask that

you have open in PSP go to layers, new mask layer, create from image.

21. Making sure that your top layer is active, Paste your tube as a new layer.

Resize and position as you desire.

22. Once you have your tube positioned to use for reference make your picture layer

active, go to image, resize (make sure "all layers" is NOT selected, then

resize as best suits your tube and desired positioning.

23. Go to Image, rotate, free rotate, depending on which side you placed your tube on

rotate either to left or right by 15 degrees, again making sure that "all layers" is NOT selected.

24. Now go to image, resize, resize to 420 x 420 pixels.

25. Add your artist copyright and other required information

26. Add the name on your tag, merge to save how you prefer either Jpeg or PNG, and we are finished!

 

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial, and wish you all a wonderful day.

 

On A Side note. If you noticed, the word art created for this tutorial is about

Childhood Cancer. My son was diagnosed September 29, 2009 with DIPG.

So of course Childhood Cancer awareness means a lot to me. So please

learn what you can, educate others, and above all Be Aware.

Under The Ocean Blue

This tutorial was written for use by those with a basic
understanding of PSP. Any similarity or resemblance to
Another tutorial is purely coincidental and accidental.

To begin we will first need to gather our supplies.

1) A tube of Choice. I will be using the swimmingly beautiful work
Of Creepie Cuties which can be found HERE
@ Artistically Inclined Licensing
2) Bella Mermaid Scrap kit by Lizquis Scraps
Which can be found HERE
3) Obviously a font of choice
4) All effects used come standard with PSP

Now that we have gathered our fairly simplistic list of
Supplies we are ready to begin.

1. Open a new canvas 700 x 700 transparent.
2. Go to your color pallet, make the stroke Black, and the fill color null
3. Using your preset shapes, elipse, create a circle a little
less than the size of your canvas. Line width 10 with
anti alias, and create as vector checked
4. Once you have your circle the desired size go
to Objects, Allign, Center in canvas
5. Now convert the vector to a raster layer.
7. Using your magic wand click on the inside of your circle
8. Go to selections, Modify, Expand by 5
9. From the Bella Mermaid Scrap kit open paper 6 or as it
Reads in the file papel6, copy and paste as new layer, move the paper
below your circle layer
10. Go to Selections, Invert Selection, then click delete.
11. Go to Selections, Select None
12. Copy and paste your tube as a new layer. Position as desired beneath
The circle layer, but remain above the paper layer.
13. Duplicate your tube layer and move to original above your circle layer.
14. Make your original tube invisible then make the duplicate active.
15. Using your erasure tool, remove a few pieces of the tube on one side
That stick out past the circle.
16. Make the original tube layer active and visible once again.
17. Now using the erasure tool again, on the same sections of the tube you removed before, remove from your original tube. This should give the effect of your tube coming out of the frame or window behind it.
18. Now we make the background layer invisible, go
to layers, merge, merge visible.
19. Duplicate your image layer and move the original above the copy
20. On your original go to Image, Resize, Resize to 80%
21. Make your duplicate layer active and reduce opacity to 40%
22. Go to Effects, Texture Effects, Blinds
With the following settings:

23. Again go to Effects, Texture Effects, Blinds

Same settings but uncheck Horizontal so settings look like the following:

24. Again make sure your background layer is still invisible

Then go to layers, merge, merge visible
25. Reposition your image as you like, and add elements from the scrap
kit. Be sure to use what matches the tube you’ve chosen, and place
Where you think it looks best.
26. Resize by either 60% or if using by pixel resizing
Resize to 420 x 420
27. Add any word art or phrase you want, Artist Copyright info, and name
28. Make your background layer visible, and if saving as a .png then go to layers, merge, merge visible. If you wish to save as a .jpeg you can either go to layers, merge, merge all (flatten), this will automatically make your background white, or you may make your background layer a color of your choosing then go to layers, merge, merge all

Love’s First Kiss

This tutorial was written by me for those who have a basic
Understanding and knowledge of PSP and it’s components.
Any similarities between this or any other tutorial are accidental
And purely coincidental.

Before we begin as always let’s gather our supplies.
What you will need:
A tube or tubes of choice. I am using the adorable art
Of Moshilove which can be found and purchased HERE
A Heart Shape Ding from a font, I’m using Sexy Love Hearts 2
Which I found free HERE
Mura Meister Copies
Everything else should be in PSP already

Now that we have gathered our supplies let’s begin.

1. Open your tube of choice in PSP
2. Open a new canvas 700 x 700 transparent background
3. Create a new raster layer
4. Go to your color pallet and set stroke to a color from your tube
And fill to null/transparent
5. Select your text tool, set to create as Vector, size 400, stroke width 10
I used the lower case letter “ Q “ q “
6. Go to objects, Allign, Center in canvas
7. Using the guide bars stretch the top and bottom of your heart
To fill in the canvas a little more, and recenter
8. Go to layers, Convert to Raster Layer
8. Now make your background layer active
9. Copy and paste your tube as a new layer
10. Resize your tube layer to about 60%
11. Now go to Effects, Mura Meister’s Copies
Using the following settings
12. Select and make your heart layer active.
13. Using your Magic Wand tool select inside the heart fill area
14. Go to Selections, Modify, Expand by 4
15. Again to Selections, Invert Selection
16. Make you tube/copy layer active and click delete
This should leave you with a solid heart outline filled with a wallpaper
Of your tube image.
17. Selections, Select none
18. Still on your now cropped Wallpaper Layer go to Adjust, Colorize, and
Adjust the color so that it is shaded Red. This layer now acts as the filling for the heart.
19. Make sure your heart layer is active again and go to Effects, 3D effects, now
Select an Inner Bevel that looks good to you.
I used the following settings for mine
20. Close out your background layer then go to Layers, Merge, Merge Visible.

21. Now Duplicate your merged layer, and move the copy under the original.
22. With your duplicate layer selected go to Effects, Distortion Effect, Twirl
Set to 360 degrees. Repeat this step twice more.
23. Reduce opacity on your twirled layer to about 45%
24. Again go to layers, merge, merge visible.
( You can now make your background layer visible again if you like.)
25. With your merged layer active go to Image, Resize, resize by 90%, and move toward the top of your canvas a little.
26. Once you are comfortable with the placement of your heart, copy and paste
Your tube as a new layer, and position where you want it.
27. Now add a drop shadow of your choice. I used
Vertical 3, Horizontal 3, Opacity 85, Blur 10, Color Black
28. Go to Image, Resize, 60%, make sure All Layers is checked.
( you may need to sharpen your image after this)
29. Add the Artist Copyright, your information, and Name
30. To save as a Jpeg go to Layers, Merge, Merge All/Flatten and save
For PNG or PSD format go to Layers, Merge, Merge Visible
