With My Love

Here is what we will be making: 

My supplies I used are:

Free tube by Alfadesire from Pics for Design.

Kit by Scraps Dimensions called With Love here.

Big Mask 18  by Vix HERE. 

Love Lost and Found wordart also from Vix HERE. 

Font used is Unthrift Second Personal.

Open a new image 600x600 transparent. Use a paper of your choice- I chose paper 3. Add a new layer and  Add a mask of choice or use the one I used. Layers merge group. I moved mine to the side and duplicated it, then image mirror. 

Frame 2 Resize 60%.  Take your selection tool and set it on freehand selection and draw around the top of the frame. 

When done, add a new layer and copy and paste a paper of 

choice - I chose paper 14 and paste it into selection. 

Move this layer under your frame. 

Copy and paste Scattered Hearts and resize it 50%. Move this layer up and over a bit and arrange this layer just above your mask layer. Duplicate it 3 more times arranging it so you can see some of the hearts  just outside the frame. See my tag for reference if needed.

Add your tube. Resize your tube to fit your tag properly and to your liking.

 I resized mine to about 60%. 

Elements and dimensions I used are as follows:

Embellishment 1 resized to 30%.

Pink wrap resized to 50%

Heart resized to 30%

Red Rose resized 60% two times. I duplicated mine about 5 times. 

White rose resized  60% two times. 

I duplicated it and mirrored it. Duplicate again and move

 this one over to right side. Duplicate and mirror.

Duplicate each rose as many times you want and arrange to your liking.

 I just told you how I did mine. 

Vix Wordart ---I did not resize. I duplicated it and on the 

bottom layer I added a gradient glow

and drop shadow. 

Add any other elements you want, drop shadow each

 element except the mask layer and resize the tag to your liking.

I left mine as is. 

Add your watermark if you wish, and make 

sure you add the copyright for the image you used.

Add your name or name(s) of whoever you want. 

For my name, I duplicated the layer and on the

 bottom layer added a Fat Gradient glow.

I also added a drop shadow of 2, -2, 5, 0. 

I saved mine as a PNG image.

You are done!
