Tube is by Amy Matthews which you can get at CDO

Scrap Kit is by Irish Bitch Designz - available at Scrap Candy HERE

Font used is Life Savers

TUTORIAL

Open a 650 x 650 transparent image

Using your Shape Tool - Square, draw out a square and place it in the centre of your image

(color does not matter)

Now open up your Princess Grunge kit, and choose Paper # 9

Copy and paste this over your Square

Using your Magic Wand, and making sure you are on the Square Layer, click anywhere

outside the Square. You will now have marching ants around the edge of the square and the canvas

Move to the paper layer and then hit delete

Your paper now sits snuggly over your square shape, which you can delete if you like

On your bottom layer of your image, floodfill with color of choice and apply a mask

I used WSL Mask # 81 - and then HSB Noise to my mask layer

Using your Rectangle Shape Tool - and using a color from your paper - draw out 2 long vertical 

rectangles. Look at my tag for reference

Open up your tube ... if you have a close up - this works best and gives variance to the tag

Poition your tube over one of the rectangles, and trim the tube by deleting the same way we

did the paper over the square.

Do this for both rectangles.

Alter the blend mode on the tube layers to SCREEN and lower opacity to 64 - 70

Add Gradient Glow to the rectangle shapes ... FAT white first and then MEDIUM in your choice of color.

Play around with the settings to find the one you like the best.

Now choose another color either from the paper or your tube, and draw out a small circle

Move this layer down to the left and place this behind your square shape. Continue to use my tag as a guide.

Duplicate this circle - Flip and Mirror. Now you can add any effects you like, paste your tube into the circles - whatever you like. Use your imagination.

I added Texture Effects Weave to mine, then a Gradient Glow

Now copy/paste your tube - make sure this is now your top layer and placed in the middle

of your tag

Now let's add some elements

1 - Add the Curtain - resize by 55% and behind the tube, at the top of the rectangles

2 - Add Frame - do not resize, and move below your square, so the spikes are showing

3 - Add Shoe/Pearls - resize by 22% and move down to the left of your tube

4 - Add Star Charm - resize by 22%, mirror and move down to the right of your tube

5 - Add Flower - resize by 22%, and place where you like, duplicating as desired

Add other elements as you like - remember to always try and add your own style to every tag you make

Choose your font, size 24 and type out 'everyday princess' all in lower case.

Promote to layer and rotate by 90 degrees ... add a gradient glow. Place as shown

Duplicate, Flip and Mirror and place on the right hand side.

Add your name, and your copyright information.

Open up your template - duplicate and close the original

Move back to Layer 8, using your Magic Wand, click outside the small squares and you will have the marching ants showing. Move back to your tube layer and hit delete. You will now have your tube cropped perfectly into the squares.

Repeat the same procedure for Layer 7

(You can also fill Layer 7 and 8 with a color from your tube and apply HSB Noise)

Copy and paste your tube as a new layer - make sure this is now your top layer.

Resize by 77% - add a drop shadow.

Now move down to layer 9 - choose a color from your tube and fill the circle with this color.

Apply Texture Effect/Weave - play around with the settings to get one you like.

Now add a Fat White Gradient Glow, and then add a Black Medium Gradient Glow - Glow Width 3

Repeat above steps for Raster 10

Move to Layer 11 - floodfill with a color from your tube - add HSB Noise and a Black Medium Gradient Glow.

Repeat for Layers 12 and Copy of Layer 12

Move to Layer 5 - floodfill with Black, then add a White Fat Gradient Glow, then a Black Medium Gradient Glow. Add a drop shadow if desired.

Kit is by Linas Designs called Little China Girl - get it here

http://linasdesignz2011.blogspot.com.au/2012/04/little-china-girl-scrap-kit-alert.html

Font is Keetano Gaijin

Filters - Eye Candy Gradient Glow and HSB Noise

Mask of Choice - I used WSL #81

TUTORIAL

Open up a new transparent image 650 x 650 - you can always resize later.

Copy and paste your tube as a new layer - resize by 55%

Using your Tool Shape (Rectangle) and Color Black (background) draw out a rectangle shape - use my tag as a guide. Drag this below your tube layer.

Change your background color to #ce5257 and draw out another rectangle shape - not as long, but wider.

Drag this down below your black rectangle shape.

Change your background color to white and draw out one more rectangle shape - longer than your black one, and not as wide. Move this layer so it sits above your black rectangle.

This is what your tag should look like now

Now is the time to add any effects you like to your rectangle shapes.

On the reddish shape, I applied HSB Noise, then a Black Gradient Glow.

On the black shape, I applied Texture Effects Weave, then a Fat Gradient Glow and a Black Gradient Glow

On the White shape, I applied Texture Blinds Effects, and a Black Gradient Glow.

(Play around with the settings to get the effects you like)

Using your font - you can add a saying of choice - I posted PEACEFUL INFLUENCE in Keetano Gaijin size 72. Add a drop shadow and place this so it sits nicely on the white shape.

Now is the time to start adding your elements - here is what I used - remember to check my tag from time to time for placement of elements - but also, remember this is just a guide.

Plant - resize by 22% - paste as new layer and move down and to the right. Duplicate/Mirror

Chopsiticks - resize by 44% - paste as new layer, and Mirror. Move to the left.

Panda- resize by 22% and then 44% - paste as new layer, making sure it is the top layer - move to the left.

Bowl with chopsticks - resize by 16%, paste as new layer and move to the left, next to the panda.

Button 2 - resize by 44%, paste as new layer and move to the right, moving the layer down below the plant.

Bonsai Tree - resize by 44%, paste as new layer, move to the left and duplicate, moving to the right. Merge layer down, then drag this layer down below your reddish shape, but having the tree showing from behind.

Add any other elements you like ... but don't over do it - the tag is not meant to be busy :)

Add your Copyright Information - making sure it is clear - and then add your name in the Keetano Gaijin font.

Save as a PNG - and you are done.

Open your tube and copy/paste as new layer - making sure this is your top layer, resizing and placing as desired. Now hide this layer until later.

Duplicate this layer - and move it down to sit over your small squares layer. Position your tube so you have it showing as you like. Making sure you are on your small squares layer, use your Magic Wand and click anywhere outside the squares, moving back up to your tube layer = then hit delete. Your tube is now trimmed to fit.

Move back down to your small squares layer and add Gradient Glows :

Fat (white) and the Medium (black) - I used width of 3.68

Copy and paste your tube again - placing this just above your Circles layer. Duplicate and place your tubes over the circles until you have them placed as desired - use your Magic Wand as before, and then move back to your tube layers and delete so the tube is now trimmed onto the circles.

Repeat your Gradient Glow as before

Now move to your Black Rectangle layer.

Go to Effects/ Texture Effects/Weave with the following settings

Gap - 2, Width - 6, Opacity - 1, Weave/Gap Color - White, Fill Gaps Ticked

Add the same Gradient Glow as before

On to your thin White Strip - add a black Gradient Glow

TUTORIAL

Open a 650 x 650 transparent Canvas, and open your tube in PSP as well

If you want to apply a mask ... now is the time to do it.

Floodfill with a color of choice from your tube - and apply your mask.

Merge Group.

Add a new layer - and using your Preset Shapes Tool (Circle) with your color of choice, draw out a large circle. Now apply HSB Noise with the following settings

Now take your close up tube and paste on to the circle.

Using your magic wand, move down to the circle layer, and click out side the circle and you will have the 'marching ants' show up.

Now move back up to the tube layer and hit delete.

You have now just trimmed your tube, so it sits perfectly inside the circle. Adjust the tube opacity to suit your taste.

Adjust the Blend Mode on this layer to Luminance, and merge this layer down. (Circle and tube layer are now 1 layer)

Add a Gradient Glow - I used Fat (white) and then Medium (purple) - play around until you get the effect you like. Then move this circle layer to the right of the tag.

Back to your Preset Tool - and this time use the rectangle shape and color of choice.

Draw out a small rectangle shape (look at my tag for reference)

Apply the same HSB Noise Effects and also add Blinds Texture Effects

Once again - copy your close up tube and paste as new layer, positioning over the rectangle shape.

Trim your tube as before, change the Blend Mode to Luminance, and the Opacity to your preference, then merge down. Move to the left of the tag.

Add Gradient Glow like before - then duplicate the layer and Mirror the image.

Now move it back to the left, moving down to the left slightly.

Add your tube - sitting in the centre.

Add a drop shadow.

Back to your Preset Tool - rectangle shape.

Draw out a narrow rectangle in color of choice. Apply HSB Noise and a Gradient Glow.

Add a Gradient Glow.

Add your Wordart so it sits over the rectangles - add a Gradient Glow and Drop Shadow.

TUTORIAL

Open a 650 x 650 Transparent Image

You will crop and resize later

Open your kit and use the following elements :

Element 65 - copy/paste and resize by 66% Duplicate/flip/mirror, placing these so they sit how you like, as a background for the tag.

Element 40 - copy/paste and resize to preferred size

Element 64 - copy/paste and resize by 66%

Using your magic wand, click inside the frames and modify by 7. Add a new layer and floodfill with a color of choice. Select None.

Open your tube, copy and paste so this tube sits below your frame.

Delete the parts that are showing outside the frame (Use your magic wand, click outside the frame, then move to the tube layer and hit delete)

You can change the Blend mode of the tube to your liking - I used Luminance Legacy.

You can now add a Gradient Glow to your frame.

Element 53 - copy/paste - resize by 44%

Place this flower element in the bottom left corner of the frame, and also in the right middle of the frame.

Element 20 - copy/paste and resize by 44% placing the same as the flower elements, but moving slightly up and out so it is showing a little more.

Element 21 - copy/paste and resize to liking. Place in front of the flower at the bottom left hand corner of the frame - moving a little more to the left.

Element 37 - copy/paste and resize to 22%. Place this so it is sitting on the brim of the hat.

Element 68 - copy/paste and resize. Move to the left, and drag down below the frame layer moving to the left so it shows out the side of the frame.

Copy and paste your tube - I resized the tube by 66% and mirrored the tube before moving to the right.

Element 2 - copy/paste - do not resize. Make sure this sits down the bottom of the tag.

Element 17 - copy/paste and resize to your liking. Sit this on top of the banner.
