Hot Blue Ptu

For this tutorial i used the art of Alan Gutierrez

You can purchase his tubes from Artistic Dreams Imaging

I used a kit from Tiny Turtle Designs called `Lady In Black`

You can find at her store here

Mask of choice.

Template 177 by Missy here

Open the template in psp,click on the BG layer and flood fill white.

Add a paper of choice from the kit as a new layer,then add your chosen mask.

Layers>new mask layer>from image>scroll to mask and hit ok.

Merge group.

Click on the main rectangle layer with your magic wand 

add a new layer & paste a paper of choice into selection.

Selections>invert>edit>cut and deselect.

X out the original rectangle layer.

Repeat these steps until all temp layers are filled.

You can use papers from the kits,or textures and gradients.

Add drop shadows as you go-i use 2,2,50.5.

Add your tube as a new layer & position

 to the right of the rectangle.

Click on one of the small circles with your magic wand.

Paste your tube over the top circle,and position it so

just the face is in the small circle.

Selections>invert>edit>cut and deselect.

Change the blend mode to Luminance (L)

Repeat these steps using 2 other different parts of your tube.

If you use a blue paper,they should turn out blue.

Now add some elements from the kit to decorate your tag.

You can use mine as a guide or go your own way.

When you are happy with your tag,add your name 

place on the scroll if you used it.

Delete the white background,merge all layers 

and resize to your liking.

Add your credits & that`s it you are done!

I hope you enjoyed my tutorial :)
