postheadericon Life's A Beach 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 :


Tube of Choice .. I am using the work of Renee Lavoie (www.reneellavoie.com) which you must have a license to use. Please do not use her work without purchasing through My Tag Art here.

Scrap Kit of Choice .. I have used a gorgeous PTU Kit from Kim's Korner called "Life's A Beach" which you can purchase here.

Mask of Choice .. I have sinedotsfrill by Essex Girl which can be downloaded here.

Font of Choice .. TheNauticalGal ROB

Let's get started

New image 600x600 and floodfill with white. New raster layer, select all, paste into selection Paper 25. Select none. New mask layer from image, sinedots frill, invert transparency unchecked, and merge group. Resize 80%.

Repeat with Paper 28 and resizing 75% instead, then rotate right 45.

Copy and paste Lifesaver and resize 90%. Using your magic wand, select the center portion of your lifesaver, selections modify/expand 5. Copy and paste Paper 21 below your frame layer, resize 75%, selections invert and hit delete. Select none. Drop shadow your frame. I have used 2/2/40/4 throughout.

Copy and paste Sun, resize 40% & drop shadow. Position top left hand corner. Copy and paste Bow 3 & drop shadow. Position top centre of your lifesaver.

Copy and paste your tube & drop shadow. Copy and paste Sand, resize 50% & drop shadow. Position along the bottom. Copy and paste Grass 3, resize 75% & drop shadow. Position on the right hand side. Copy and paste Sandcastle, resize 50% & drop shadow. Position bottom right hand corner.

Copy and paste Grass 2 & drop shadow. Position bottom left hand corner. Copy and paste Flower 5, resize 65% & drop shadow. Position as well on the bottom left hand corner. Repeat with Flower 2. Copy and paste Grass 4, resize 65% & drop shadow. Position bottom left hand corner at the bottom of your other elements.

Copy and paste Flower 1, resize 40% & drop shadow. Position on top of your last grass element on the bottom left hand side. Copy and paste Shell large 3, resize 40% & drop shadow. Position next to your flower.

Copy and paste Tag 02, resize 65% & drop shadow. Position top right hand corner.

Copy and paste Dolphin, resize 40%, mirror and rotate right 30. Using your magic wand, select the blue portions of your dolphin and then adjust/add remove noise/uniform monochrome checked/50%. Select none and drop shadow. Position top right hand corner so it appears your tag is hanging from the dolphin.

X out white background, merge visible. Open white background, resize to your liking (I have used 500x500).

Add copyright and name on your tag. I have used TheNauticalGal ROB, size 72, color #1a86a2 and then added the same noise as used on the dolphin. I then added the following gradient glow and drop shadow.


Save and you are done.

I hope you have enjoyed my tutorial. Pls feel free to experiment and use my tutorial as a guide.
