postheadericon Kisses & Cuddles Tut


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 Jennifer Janesko which you must have a license to use. Please do not use her work without purchasing through CDO here. I am licensed through CILM which is now closed.

Scrap Kit of Choice .. I have used a gorgeous PTU scrap kit from Designs by Stina called Kisses and Cuddles which can be purchased here.

Mask of Choice .. I haved used zuzzanna_mask7 by Zuzzanna which can be downloaded here.

Template of Choice .. I have used Valentine Template 5 by Addictive Pleasures which can be downloaded here.

Font of Choice .. Carattere Rob

Let's get started

Open your template in PSP & delete credits, text & hearts 3 layer.

New raster layer just above your background layer. Select all, copy and paste into selection Paper 12. Select none. New mask layer from image, zuzzanna_mask7, invert transparency checked. Merge group.

Select Rectangle layer, select all/float/defloat, copy and paste Paper 16, resize 75%, selections invert and hit delete. Select none and delete original Rectangle layer.

Add the following gradient glow & then drop shadow. I have used 2/2/40/4 throughout.


 

Copy and paste Heart Swirl 3, resize 40% & drop shadow. Position centre.

Select Circle layer, select all/float/defloat, copy and paste Paper 17, selections invert and hit delete. Select none and delete original Circle layer. Add the following gradient glow & then drop shadow.



Repeat with Strip Layer.

Copy and paste your tube. Position above your circle layer. Drop shadow. Layer duplicate and mirror.

On the first tube layer, trim the bottom off, if necessary, that is sticking out of the bottom the heart layer. Change blend mode to luminance legacy.

For the 2nd tube layer, I moved the Heart2 layer down a bit to cover the AC content of the tube. Then I again trimmed the ends of the tube that were sticking out under the heart.

Select Glitter hearts layer. Adjust color balance/manual color correction from white to #da4d7c.

Select Hearts layer. Adjust color balance/manual color correction from #fec6e2 to #fb9cb2.

Select Heart layer, select all/float/defloat, copy and paste Paper 20, selections invert and hit delete. Select none and delete original Heart layer. Add drop shadow.

Select Heart 2 layer. Adjust color balance/manual color correction from #e5589c to #fb9cb2.

Select Hearts 2 layer. Adjust color balance/manual color correction from white to #fb9cb2. Adjust/add remove noise/uniform monochrome checked/50%. Add drop shadow.

Copy and paste Rose 1, resize 65%, rotate right 90, flip & drop shadow. Position along the bottom. Repeat with Rose 2 this time resizing 50%.

Copy and paste Champagne Gift Box, resize 35%, mirror & drop shadow. Position bottom right hand corner.

Copy and paste Beaded Wire 1, resize 60% & drop shadow. Position hanging down over the heart column. Copy and paste Heart Flower 2, resize 40% twice & drop shadow. Position at the top of the Beaded Wire so it looks to be hanging from the flower.

Copy and paste Beaded Wire 6, resize 60% & drop shadow. Position along the bottom.

X out white background, merge visible. Open white background, resize to your liking (I have used a width of 600).

Add copyright. I have used Carattere Rob, Size 60, color black and then added the 2nd gradient glow used earlier (white & black) and then drop shadow.
