SUPPLIES NEEDED

TUBE OF CHOICE: I used the fantastic artwork of Elias Chatzoudis.

You must purchase a license to use his art.

You can find Elias's art and get your license at:

www.mypsptubes.com

SCRAPKIT: Princess Tales by Rieka Rafita.

This is a PTU kit. You can find it HERE.

FONT OF CHOICE: I used Precious for the name and “Cinderella”.

Trianti Solid LET for the text.

I used Photoshop for this tut.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

In this tut we'll be using Noise to create sparklies.

If you don't wish to animate, just skip the steps marked **BLUE**.

Open a canvas, transparent, 600x600 pixels.

Open RR_Paper2.

We'll be using this paper for your frame.

Resize it to fit your canvas.

Open RR_Paper4.

Place this under Paper2.

Open RR_Sparkles3.

**FOR ANIMATION**

Duplicate this layer twice.

Move the second and third layers around a little.

Doing this will make the Sparkles appear to move during animation.

Open element RR_CrystalCurtains.

Resize to fit behind Paper2.

Center this and place a drop shadow.

**FOR ANIMATION**

Duplicate this layer twice.

Click on your first CrystalCurtains layer.

Go to Filter, Noise, Add Noise.

When the Noise window pops up

Type 19 in the box for Amount.

Check Uniform and Monochromatic.

Do the same for your next two layers of CrystalCurtains.

Second layer: 22 for Noise

Third layer: 25 for Noise.

Open RR_Castle.

Center within Paper2.

Open RR_Carriage.

Place in lower right corner.

Resize these to fit and place a drop shadow.

Open RR_Highheel.

Place in lower left corner, size to fit, drop shadow.

Now place your tube of choice on top of the Highheel.

Place drop shadow.

To make it look as though she is sitting in the shoe,

Place your tube exactly where you want her.

Next move your tube behind the Highheel.

With your tube layer highlighted

Start erasing on the outside of the shoe

Where her body would overlap.

Use my tag as a guide.

Now move your tube back on top of the Highheel.

My tube needed to have her chest covered.

You can skip this step if you don't need to cover anything.

Open_RRBow6.

Resize, place over chest area, add drop shadow.

**FOR ANIMATION**

Duplicate this layer twice.

Go to Filter, Noise, Add Noise.

Layer one: 29

Layer two: 30

Layer three: 31

These are the elements I used on top of Paper2:

RR_Necklace

RR_Bow4

RR_Crown1

RR_Lips

RR_TallBanner

RR_HeartCharm

Position and resize as you like, adding drop shadows.

**FOR ANIMATION:**

We will be animating:

RR_Necklace

RR_Crown1

RR_HeartCharm

Duplicate each of these layers twice.

Noise for:

Necklace

First layer, 25.

Second layer, 27.

Third layer, 29.

Crown1 and HeartCharm

First layers, 15.

Second layers, 17.

Third layers, 19.

Now click on TallBanner layer.

Make a new layer.

Type the name you want in the font you want.

I colored the eyedropper tool.

Click on the Highheel for choice of color.

I also used Stroke, Black, 1, Center.

Outerglow Screen 75%, ffffbe.

Size it to fit, rotate and position where you like.

I used the same effects on the rest of the text.

Resize your tag to the size of your liking.

MOST IMPORTANT!!

You must now do this:

Put the artist's name, website, and your license number

of the tube you used on the siggy!!

Add your name (ie: Designed by Your Name) behind this info.

Make sure this info is legible and clearly seen.

If you don't want to animate, Save as PNG.

YOU'RE DONE!!

(If you want to maintain your layers

Always Save as PSD first.

Then you can save it as a PNG.

When doing both these steps

It is important to change the title of the tag.

Example:

When I Save as PSD,

I always name the tag what I want.

Then, when saving as a PNG,

I add the number 1 behind the name of the tag.

Like this:

Cinderella, Save as PSD

Cinderella1, Save as PNG

Otherwise, your PNG will overwrite your PSD

Merging your tag into one layer only.)

**TO ANIMATE:**

Open the Animation Window.

You will need four frames.

Set the time for .02.

For the first frame:

Show the first layers only of

Sparkles3

CrystalCurtains

Bow6

Necklace

HeartCharm

Crown1

Second frame:

Show only the second layers.

Third frame:

Show only the third layers.

Fourth frame:

Show only the second layers.

Save as PSD. Then Save for Web & Devises.

YOU'RE DONE!

I hope you had fun with this tut!

Ya ready? Here we go...

Here's a tip for easy erasing:

After placing your tube in the frame, duplicate the frame.

Make sure the copied frame layer is highlighted.

Now go ahead and erase where your tube is overlapping the frame.

That's it! Easy, huh? LOL!

Open RR_Feather1.

Place behind your tube.

Rotate the feather, angling the tip toward the upper right of your tag.

Place it so the edges show past the edge of the frame.

Now we'll place some elements on top of your tube

But underneath the copied frame layer.

The easiest way to do this is to click on your tube layer.

We'll build your tag from here.

(For the rest of your tag,

Resize the elements to fit your siggy as you go along.)

Open RR_Banger.

Center this below the flowers on the the frame.

Open RR_Candle1.

Center this at the bottom of the frame, in the middle.

Resize your tag to the size you want.
