This tutorial was written April 26th, 2013. I used Corel X3, but it should work in other versions as well. It’s assumed that you have working knowledge on how to resize and working with layers. Any similarity to any other tutorial is purely coincidental. Please look at my TOU for more info. The supplies you need: Any tube you decide on. I’m a gorgeous tube by Gaynor Lewis at My Tubed Art. I also used a PTU kit called “Candy Floss Dreams” by Misty Mayhem Scraps, which you can purchase at The Scrapping Box. Here is a preview of the scrapkit: Materials you need: 2 masks of choice. I used “DDMask7” and “Mask13” by Dees'Sign Depot. A font that you like. I used “Xiomara Script”. Eye Candy 4000 – Gradient Glow (Optional) My settings for drop shadow: 3, 3, 70, 8, Black. Make a new canvas, 700 x 700 pixels. Paste element 57 as a new layer. Rotate it 90 degrees to the left (or right) and resize it down to 50%. Paste a paper underneath the frame. I used paper1. You might have to resize it some, or at least move it around a little bit to get he part of the paper you want to show inside the frame. Paste element13 above the paper and place in to position. See my tag for reference. Duplicate this layer, mirror and flip it. Click inside the frame with your magic wand. Expand the selection by 5 and Invert. Hit Delete on both the layers with element 13 and the paper layer. Select none. Paste element16 underneath the frame and resize it down to 50%. Place in the top left corner of the frame. Duplicate this, mirror and flip. Move it to the bottom right corner of the frame and merge these 2 together. Go to the bottom layer and paste element 10. Resize it to 50% and place it in the top left corner. Paste element8 under the flower and resize it to 50%. Place it so that the leaves are sticking out a bit. See my tag for reference. Paste element 14 underneath the leaves layer. Resize it to 50% and place it in the bottom right corner. Paste element44 underneath the white flower. Resize it to 60% and place it in the top right corner. Paste element32 above the pink flower. Resize it to 30% and place it in the bottom left corner of the frame. See my tag for reference. Paste element20 and place it at the bottom of the frame. Resize it to 50%. Duplicate this layer and place the top sprinkle layer above the frame at the top of the frame. Paste your tube as a new layer. I added a drop shadow to the tube straight away and with the selection too, I removed a bit at the bottom, so that it looks like the tube is inside the frame at the bottom. Paste element50 above the bottom sprinkle trail and resize it to 30%. Place it in the bottom right corner of the frame. Paste element16, mirror it and resize it to 30%. Place it in the top right corner of the frame. Paste element46 above the pink flower cluster and resize it to 30%. Paste element47 and resize it to 20%. Place it in the bottom left corner of the frame. Paste element30 and resize it to 50%. Place it in front of the pillow and pink bag. Paste element52 above the high heels. Resize it to 25% and place at the bottom. Add a drop shadow to all the layers. Go to the bottom layer and add a new raster. Change your foreground and background colours to 2 from the tag. I used 2 dark colours from the kitten. Change the foreground colour to a gradient, like this: And floodfill the layer. Add your mask (DDMask7) and merge group. I duplicated the mask layer a total of 5 times and merged these together. Add another raster layer above the mask layer. Select All and past a paper in to the selection. I used paper10. Select none, add the second mask (Mask13) to this layer. I increased the size of the mask layers on this one by dragging the corners out with the pick tool and merged the group. I also duplicated it a total of 5 times and merged these together. I moved this under the grey mask layer. Hide the bottom layer and crop your tag with Merge Opaque. You might have to adjust the size of the crop, moving the lines around your tag a bit. Activate the Text Tool, find your font, change the size to 70px, anti-alias to Smooth. Set the foreground and background colour to black and type out your name. Convert to raster and add a Gradient Glow to the name with these settings: I used the FAT setting and picked 2 pink colours from the tag: #fd309e and #f194cb, like this: Add a drop shadow to the name.
Resize your tag and add the proper copyright. Save it as a png or jpg. Hugs Lithy
