Feel free to use my tutorial as a guide and have fun giving it your own spin.

This tutorial assumes you have a working knowledge of PSP.

Needed Supplies & Filters :


Tube of Choice  .. I am using the work of KatNKDA which you must have a license to use. Please do not use her work without purchasing through her store here. I am licensed through Artistic Minds Inc. but they are now closed.

Scrap Kit of Choice .. I have used a gorgeous PTU Kit from KatNKDA called Tree of Love which was purchased through Artistic Minds Inc. who are now closed. The art kit version of this kit can now be purchased here.

Template  of Choice .. I have used template 79 by Ali which can be downloaded from her blog here.

Mask of Choice .. I haved used WSL_Mask84 Weescotslass which can be downloaded here.

Font of Choice .. Gwendolyn Bold 

Filters of Choice .. Xenofex/Constellation & DSB Flux/Bright Noise

Let's get started

Open your template in PSP. Delete credits. New raster layer, send to bottom and floodfill with white. Adjust canvas size 650x650.

New raster layer, select all, paste into selection Paper 14. New mask layer from image, WSL_Mask84, invert mask data unchecked, and merge group. Layer duplicate & merge down. If necessary, enlarge your mask layer 105-110%.

Select Circle layer, select all/float/defloat, copy and paste Paper 8, resize 75%, selections invert & hit delete. Delete original Circle layer.

Copy and paste Element 19 & resize 65%. Duplicate layer twice & rename Circle 1, 2 & 3. On your first circle layer apply the following Constellation.


Apply the same Constellation to your next Circle layer and hit random once. Apply again to your last Circle layer hitting random twice. Select none. If you decide not to animate your tag, then just skip the duplicate twice.

Merge down Shape 2-3-4 layers. Select all/float/defloat, copy and paste Paper 1, resize 75%, selections invert & hit delete. Delete original merged layer. I then added a size 5 fat white gradient glow and then drop shadow. I have used 2/2/40/4 throughout.

Copy and paste Element 41, resize 60% & drop shadow.

Select Shape 1 layer, select all/float/defloat, copy and paste your image, selections invert & hit delete. Delete original Shape 1 layer.

Select Frame layer, select all/float/defloat, new raster layer and floodfill with #d0818e. Delete original Frame layer.

Duplicate Frame layer twice and rename Frame 1-2-3. On your first layer apply DSB Flux/Bright Noise 40%. On your 2nd layer, apply bright noise again, hitting mix twice. On your 3rd layer, apply again hitting mix 3 times. Again, if you decide not to animate your tag, then just skip this part of the tutorial.

Add drop shadow to all 3 frame layers.

Copy and paste Element 1, resize 40% & drop shadow. Position bottom left hand corner of your frame. Copy and paste Element 3, resize 30% & drop shadow. Position next to your other rose.

Copy and paste below your rose layers Element 36, resize 40%, mirror & drop shadow. Layer duplicate & rotate right 90.

Copy and paste Element 32, resize 40% & drop shadow. Position bottom right hand corner of your frame.

Copy and paste Element 30, resize 40% & drop shadow. Position top right hand corner of your frame.

Copy and paste Element 42, resize 25% & drop shadow. Position the bird sitting on your roses.

At this point if you need to, resize your tag. I have used 500x500. Add your copyright and name. I have used Gwendolyn bold size 48 color #d0818e and added a size 3 fat white gradient glow and then drop shadow.

If you are choosing not to animate, then you can save your tag.

To animate, close off Circle & Frame Layers 2 & 3 (the lil eye icon in your layer palette), Edit/Copy Merged and paste as new animation in Animation Shop. Close off Circle & Frame Layers 1 and open Circle & Frame Layers 2, Edit/Copy Merged and paste after current frame in AS. Close off Circle & Frame Layers 2 and open Circle & Frame Layers 3, Edit/Copy Merged and paste after current frame in AS.
