I do these for fun and as a learning tool.
I don't sell or make a profit from any of the
supplies I have collected. Or from writhing these tutorials.
I don't claim to have done any of the graphics
and that, just the tags I make and share.
Some knowledge of psp is most helpful.
I used psp 9 any will work.
Supplies
3 graphics of choice
Tube
Accents of choice
Font AR Decode
All supplies I used are HERE
Plug ins
Xero HERE
Filters unlimited HERE
Alien Skins Xenofex 2 HERE
AAA frame HERE
open a new image 500 X 800
will resize when done
Selection tool>draw out a square
I went about 7 gray squares by 7 gray squares.
any where on your new image.
Selection>modify>select, selection border
use a color or a gold patter for the frame.
It's all up to you>I used gold beads
set at angel 0 and size 200
duplicate move down so it touches the first one
duplicate it again and move it down with you mover tool.
they should all be lined up now.
Merge visible layers.
With your mover tool>move it over so you have lots
of room to work.
Top>magic wand and modify expand by 3
Layer new raster layer>copy and paste into
selection the first graphic you want to use.
Layer arrange move down.
Deselect
Repeat the above step for all 3 of the frames.
Just make sure your on the right frame layer each time.
When your all done with the frame, and are happy
with how it looks>merge all layers
This is what I have so far.
Now we will add some leaves to the frame,
Copy and paste as a new layer>Leaves 1
Resize by 50 percent>with mover tool move over to the right side
of the frame and layer arrange move down.
Duplicate the leaves>image flip and place them
how you want them at the bottom of your frames.
Duplicate and move that layer up to the middle.
I took my eraser tool and did away with
a couple of leaves I didn't want there.
Once you have them placed close off the frame>
and merge visible.
Give them a drop shadow.
Layer duplicate>mirror image.
I then took my free hand selection tool and
went around the leaf tube and just took a couple
and copied and pasted as a new layer
Resize the by 45 percent. and kind of fill in
where you think they need to be.
I closed off the layers so you could see how I placed them.
Be sure and add the same drop shadow.
I now took and added the same leaves
on the top of the frame.
Resized them by 40 percent.
Add the drop shadow and arrange them.
This is what I have now.
If your happy with the way it all looks
Then merge all layers.
Pick a nice color you want for the back ground.
