Let’s get started.

Open your scrap kit and supplies and have ready.

Download the font into your windows/font folder and download your mask into your mask folder this should be under your C/Programs file/Corel/Paint Shop/Masks.

NOW open up your Paint Shop Pro once you have those items saved.

Open up a new 850x850 raster layer. We will resize later. Flood Fill White.

Open up a paper of choice from the kit. I used: SkyScraps-PP5. Resize by 110%. Create a new raster layer, flood fill with this paper.

*Tip: To floodfill with a paper, you will see your color palettes up the right of PSPX. Click on the Foreground (top color), you should see material properties box, on the top of this box just above the color, you will see Color/Gradient/Pattern. Click on Pattern. You will see a little arrow to the right of the current pattern, click on this to see more options, now find your paper you opened. Hit Ok. Now you can flood fill the new black raster with this pattern.

Now load your Dead Sexy Mask with these settings:

Now go to the right toolbar and you'll see your layers. Click on the top layer of the masks, Right Click, Merge Group.

Open up the SkyScraps-Element18 (Fence) from the kit. Copy and Paste as a new layer.

Open up a frame of choice from the kit. I used: SkyScraps-Frame8

Copy and Paste as a new layer. Drag this layer above your fence layer.

Open up a tree of choice from the kit. I used: SkyScraps-TreeSnow

Copy and Paste as a new layer. Position this under your Frame to the left.

Open up your tube of choice, I used an Elias called Christmas Star. Resize by 125%. Copy and Paste as a new layer. Position this layer to the right of your frame layer. See mine to reference.

Now open another paper of choice from the kit. I used: SkyScraps-PP11. Create a new layer just beneath your frame layer. Flood fill with this pattern (paper). Click on your frame layer to make active. Now using your magic wand folder click inside of the frame layer. Go to the top tool bar-Selections-Modify-Expand by 10. Now Selections again-Invert.

Click on the new pattern/paper layer you just created to make active and hit delete on your keyboard. Now Deselect. Your paper should now be just inside of your frame.

*Tip: To deselect go to your top tool bar, Selections-Select None.

Now copy and paste the part transparent close up of the tube, it is provided with the original tube. Copy and paste this as a new layer. Move to the left inside of the frame. Do the same process as above. Use your magic wand, select inside the frame, modify by expanding by 10, invert, click on your tube layer to make active, hit delete on your keyboard, and then deselect. Now you should have your tube inside of your frame.

Add any additional Elements you might like. Copy and paste the word art provided as a new layer. Drag this layer above your tube layer. See mine to reference.

Add your name in a cursive font. I used: LoversQuarrelROB, with settings: Size 36, Stroke Width 1, Foreground Color: Null (Transparent) and Background Color: #4f6b32

Now using Eye Candy 4000, gradient glow add a glow with these settings: Basic will be: 3,25,100 with the check box selected for the draw on the outside. Color settings will be white and choose FAT as your setting. And then hit ok.

Now add a drop shadow to any of your layers you prefer.

Now add your copyright and watermark.

Crop your tag to get rid of any extra space not used. And Resize to your preference.

Save as a jpg or png (for the transparent background).
