help others learn the fun and art of paint shop pro.

Scrapbook kits

I collected these from not sure where, found them on a disc.
If anyone knows who made these kits let me know so I can give them
the credit, I never made any of these kits.

PSP 9 can be done in any PSP

1. Open new image 500 X 500

2. Find a paper you want to use, and copy and paste as a new layer.

3. Find a frame from the kit you want to use,
and copy and paste as a new layer.

4. Click on the inside of the frame and hit delete.
If you have a white background in the center
of it. If you don't then skip this step.

5. Keep selected find another paper and add a new layer,
expand by 4,then copy and paste this
paper into the frame.

6. Layers move down so its below the frame.
Find the tube you wish to use and copy and paste it as a new layer,
Resize it to fit like you wish.

NOTE
Make sure your on the right layer before you do this.

Need to be on the tube layer.
What I did was use the Mickey mouse tube then
lowered my opacity down until you could see the
frame and used my selection tool, and eraser to
get rid of what I didn't want.

I wanted him to look like
he was marching out of the frame.

When finished bring the opacity back
up to normal.

7. When your happy with the way your frame looks......close off
paper 1 and merge visible layers.

8. Add any accents you wish to this. When happy with
what you have merge all layers.

to get rid of a lot that I didn't want.

10. Add a 2 pixel border use what you want to go with the background.

11. Add another 2 pixel border and use a different color

12. Add another 2 pixel border of a different color.

13. Add a 15 pixel border, and select it and copy and paste
into the border the paper you used for the background
or one of your choice.
