postheadericon Welcome On Board 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 Lacy Clagg (www.lacyclagg.com) which you must have a license to use. Please do not use her work without purchasing through My Tag Art here.

The particular image I have used is FTU through My Tag Art. Please follow TOU if using these.

Scrap Kit of Choice .. I have used a gorgeous FTU Kit from Scrap Dimensions called Nautical Vibes which can be downloaded here.

Mask of Choice .. I have used WSL_Mask83 which can be downloaded here.

Font of Choice .. TheNautiGal

Filters of Choice .. Eye Candy/Water Drops

Let's get started

New image 600x600 and floodfill with white. Copy and paste Paper 10. New mask layer from image, WSL_Mask83, invert mask data unchecked, and merge group. Resize 105%.

Duplicate layer twice & rename Mask 1, 2 & 3. On your first Mask layer apply the following Eye Candy/Water Drops.

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

Copy and paste Net, resize 40% & drop shadow. I have used 2/2/40/4 throughout. Position top right hand corner.

Copy and paste Ribbon 3, resize 65% & drop shadow. Position bottom left hand corner. Layer duplicate, flip. Copy and paste String 2, resize 65%, rotate left 90 & drop shadow. Position along the bottom. Repeat with String 3. Layer duplicate, flip.

Copy and paste Life Ring 2, resize 65% & drop shadow. Position bottom right hand corner. Copy and paste Bow 1, resize 25% & drop shadow. Position at the bottom of your life ring.

Copy and paste Life Ring, resize 40% & drop shadow. Position top left hand corner. Copy and paste Sea Plant, resize 50% & drop shadow. Position bottom left hand corner.

Copy and paste Tube, mirror & drop shadow.

Copy and paste Rope, resize 35% & drop shadow. Position bottom left hand corner. Copy and paste Trap, resize 40% & drop shadow. Position next to your rope. Copy and paste Seashells 3, resize 20% & drop shadow. Position next to your trap.

Resize to your liking (I used 500x500).

Add copyright & Add your name. I used TheNautiGal size 72 color #00004b. I then added a size 3 fat white gradient glow and drop shadow as before. If you are choosing not to animate, then you can save your tag.

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

If you like you can adjust the speed in AS, by select all/animation/frame properties and I set mine to 20. Save as a gif.

I hope you have enjoyed my tutorial.
