This tutorial was written June 2nd, 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 link to the snags can be found at the bottom. The supplies you need: Any tube you decide on. I’m using a gorgeous tube by Anna Liwanag at CDO. I also used a PTU kit called “Fairy Tale Dreams” by GrnIz Dezinez. Here is a preview of the kit: Materials you need:
A mask of your choice. I used “Mask91" by Trese. A font that you like. I used “Calligraffitti”. 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 14 as a new layer. Paste a paper of choice underneath the frame. I used Paper 9. Paste a close up of the tube as a new layer and place it towards the right side, inside the frame. Activate the frame layer. With your magic wand active, click inside the frame and expand the selection by 10 and Invert. Go to the close up and hit Delete and do the same for the paper layer. Deselect. Go to the close up again and change the layer properties to Overlay or another suitable setting. Paste element 17 at the bottom and place it towards the top left side. Move it so that the colours are lined up with the stripes on the frame. Go to the top layer and paste element 40. Resize it down to 70% and place it on the right side. Paste element 37. Resize it down to 85%. Paste element 49 and place it a little bit below the rainbow, as an extension to the clouds. Paste element 18 or 19 and mirror it. Paste the tube and place it on the left side. Paste element 39 and place it along the bottom of the frame. See my tag for reference. I selected and promoted part of her dress to make it look like the edge of her dress is above it. Make sure you’re on the top layer and paste element 26. Resize it to 60% and place it in the bottom left corner. Paste element 25, resize it to 50% and place it in front of the other flower element, a little to the side. Paste element 23, resize it to 50% and place at the bottom right corner. See my tag for reference. Paste element 12 and resize it to 50% and place it at the bottom right corner. Paste the carriage. Resize it down to 50% and place it in the bottom corner. Add any other embellishments you like. The kit has tons of gorgeous things you can add. I have only shown a few of them. Ok, time to add a drop shadow to all the layers if you haven’t done it already. Crop your tag with Merge Opaque. Go to the bottom layer and add a paper. I already had a bottom layer that was blank, so I selected all and pasted a paper into the selection and Deselected. I used Paper 7. Add your mask to this layer and Merge Group. Set foreground and background to a colour from the tag. Activate the Text Tool, choose the font and size (I used 80 px) you want to use and type out the name or saying. Convert to raster. I added a Gradient Glow using the Fat setting and a light colour from the tag. Add a drop shadow to the name. Resize your tag. I resized mine to 550px on the longest side. Add your copyright info and save it as a png. Thanks for trying my tutorial! I also made some matching snags that you can find HERE, along with all the other Anna Liwanag snags I have made in the past. Hugs Lithy
