***Remember to save often***

Open LuvEasterCluster1, ctrl-D to duplicate

Change Canvas size to 800 x 800, I like to work with plenty of space, we will re-size later

Using your magic wand, click inside each frame, Modify, Expand by 5

Open paper 2, copy and paste as a new layer, invert and delete, select none

Move the paper below frame, hide this layer for the moment

Click inside the top frame, repeating the steps to expand before

Open tube of choice, if your not using one with a close up then your tube will work

However I'm using one with a close up

Re-size close up so that it will fit, I did mine by 50%

Copy and paste tube, invert and delete, repeat, Use my tag as an idea

Merge these two layers together then duplicate

Mirror the duplicate layer and move it down to the second frame

Once down merge two layers together and move it below the frame layer

Change Blend Mode to Hard light and Opacity to 62%, un-click the frame background layer

***Remember to save often***

Open main tube and place into middle of tag, re-size if needed

Open heatspill, re-size by 75%

Copy and paste as a new layer, duplicate, mirror and flip, merge the two layers together

Open LuvEaster4 (word-art Easter with heart and eggs), copy and paste as a new layer

Use my Tag for placement

***Remember to save often***

Add anything else you would like

Apply drop shadow to any layer of choice, I always like to give a slight one to all layers

I use:
Offset Vertical - 0
Horizontal - -1
Attributes Opacity - 70
Blur - 6.00
Color - Black

Crop your image, getting rid of all excess canvas

Re-size so that the total image is no longer than 650 on it's longest side

Now add your copyright

Save image as a png file.

I've had this temp for a pretty long time. So not sure if it's still available or not.

Open temp and Control D to duplicate the image

Change the canvas size to 900 x 900, I like to have a lot of extra room and will re-size later

Now we are going to be deleting a lot from the temp.

Let's delete the following layer: Text background; Text; Snowflakes & Copyright

Activate Rectangle Frame Red

Change Foreground to #b60708 and Background to #e6e6e6

Create Gradient using the following number



Insert a new layer and flood fill it with gradient you just created

Now delete the Rectangle Frame Red layer

Delete BG Text. There are a couple of ways to create text fills, however my plugins don't work so I made it the old fashion way.

Replace the Naughty n Nice word fill with the Pepper Winter one below


Right click and save this image

Merge layer down so it gets the soft light look

***Remember to save often***

Open paper 6

Activate Right Frame layer, copy and paste Paper 6, invert and delete

Delete Original Right frame layer and merge the new layer to the old layer

Now repeat with Left Frame layer

Open tube of choice.

Copy and paste as a new layer

I re-sized by 75% to get the girl a little smaller.

Activate Right Frame

Copy and paste tube; invert and delete

Change blend mode to screen

Repeat with Left frame, you will have to flip the tube

***Remember to save often***

Now time to add elements of choice

Open element 40

Activate Raster Layer 1 (the one below the pixel text)

Copy and paste as a new layer, invert and delete

Open Element 13, re-size by 50%

Copy and paste as a new layer, use my tag for placement

Open element 15, re-size by 25%

Copy and paste as a new layer, use my tag for placement

Open element 31, re-size by 50%

Copy and paste as a new layer, use my tag for placement

***Remember to save often***

Crop the image around tag. Make sure it's not longer than 650 on the longest side

Now add your copyright

Add anything else you would like

Save image as a png file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This tut was written on January 27, 2013

:||: Lost Is BACK!!! :||:

Hello to all my stalkers.

First and foremost, thank you for all sticking around.

I've done a lot of thinking. Trying to decide what to do.

So much has been going on, in and out of the PSP world.

Some of it I don't like, but then again that's in every world.

So what will I do, hmmmmm.

I love PSPing too much to give up.

That being said, Lost is BACK!!!!!!!!!!!

What does that mean for you, you ask

MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More tuts, More Kits, lots of goodies

All I'm asking is that each visitor take a moment and please vote for me.
The link can be found in the right column.

Can't wait to get started either.

Will be looking for new CT to join as well.
