Let it Snow

I wrote this tutorial on the 9^th November 2012 and it is my own idea’s. Any resemblance to another tutorial is purely coincidental and not intended.

For this tutorial you will need a working knowledge of Paint Shop Pro and working with layers.

You will need

Paint Shop Pro – Any version though I am using Psp 9

A tube of choice – I am using the artwork of Keith Garvey you must have a license to use his art. You can find him HERE

Scrapkit-I am using Fantasy Moments Winter Fun which you can find HERE

Mask – I am using Mask 22 by Brutal Designs HERE

Font of Choice or the one I am using Frosty which you can find HERE

Plugins – Vanderlee – Snowscape – Eyecandy Impact – Gradient Glow

Ok Lets begin

Open a new image 600 x 600

Open your Scrapkit and find Paper 6, Open in Psp copy and Paste as a new Layer.

Layers Load Mask from Disk and find Mask 22. Apply, then delete mask and merge group.

Open Element 10, copy and paste as a new layer on your working image, resize by 85% and place to the right side of your tag.

Take your magic wand and click inside the frame, Expand by 5.

Open Paper 3, copy and paste as a new layer below the frame, Invert and delete.

Do not deselect yet. Open your image of choice and place in the frame above the paper, delete any bits that are hanging over the frame.
