Template 736


Ready? Okay....Let's Start!

Delete  or hide Credit layer. ( I hide mine and send it to bottom)

For all paper layers (Unless otherwise specified), click on the layer, add a new raster layer, and
copy and paste your paper into selections.

From bottom layer. You may add a white background if you wish

to see your tag in the making better, but I usually do not.

Add a new layer. Select all. Copy Paper 9 and Paste into selections-Deselect.

Duplicate.

Bottom layer add mask 005, Top layer  add mask 017- Both from image.

Layers 1 and 2- Paper 6. Click on layer 1 with your magic wand, add 

a new layer, copy and paste your paper  into selections-layers duplicate,

 image mirror. Delete or hide your original layers (1 and 2).


On Layer 3 I used Paper 15.

For layers 4  and 5 , I used paper 14  - Click on layer 4 with your magic wand, add  a new layer, copy and paste your paper  into selections-layers duplicate, image mirror.

Delete or hide your original layers ( 4 and 5).

6-I used Paper 5.

7 and 8-Wordart- Duplicate- add a thick gradient glow. If you do not have Gradient glow,

See my tutorial on the Alternate to Gradient Glow 

on the  Alternate to Gradient Glow Page.


I also  gave each template layer a white background noise layer.
To do this, click on the layer with your magic wand. Then, make a new raster layer then
expand selections by 3 and  floodfill with white.
Deselect. Now move this layer under your paper. Add noise to your
satisfaction. I used 100% - 2 times.

Now add your Elements.

I used:

38- resized 50%- Flip- then move to liking.

El 49-Butterflies- resized 50% . I added more butterflies from PSP.

 and resized them by  40%, and I mirrored them.

Element 4 -- Resized 75%.

43- 25%- Place near top on right-Duplicate and mirror.

36- 35% move to right, duplicate, mirror.

39- 25%.

Copy and paste your tube as a new layer. Place it to your liking.

If you used the same tube as I did, I resized mine by 60% and put it above The Paper 5 layer.

I resized all layers by 85%.

Add any other elements you wish and drop shadow to your liking.
