Chief Sexy PTU




This tutorial was written on December 31, 2009 Shani aka Wicked Princess. The concept of the tag is mine and mine alone. Any resemblance to any other tag/tut is pure coincidence. This was written for those with working knowledge of PSP.
Supplies Needed:

++Paint Shop Pro ( I used 10 but any version should work)

++Scrap kit Wild Wild West by Nik’s Scripts and Scraps can be purchased HERE

++Template 55 by Designs by Ali can be found HERE

++Tube of choice or the one I used. I used the artwork of Elias Chatzoudis and you can purchase his work from MPT You must have a valid license in order to use his work.


++Plug ins:
-Eye Candy 4000 Gradient glow
-Alien Skin Xenofex 2, Light fluffy clouds

++Font and mask of choice


**NOTES:
-Add Drop shadow of choice as you go
-You can merger layers as you want to make things easier for yourself.
-This IS a full size kit! You will need to resize as you go.

Open the template in PSP, using your shortcut keys on your keyboard (SHIFT+D) duplicate the template as a new image. Close the original.

Open several papers of choice, resizing as needed. For example, when I look at the blue bar where it tells me what I’ve opened (say like paper 2) it tells me what percentage I’m viewing it at. For me it’s usually 16%, so I resize to 16% bringing it to 100%. ( I hope that made sense!) Once you’ve done this, minimize for later use.

Next go to the bottom template layer and go to selections, select all, then float, selections defloat. Add a gradient glow of your choosing. Don’t forget to go to selections, none then delete the template layer. Repeat this process for the rest of the template.

Add a new raster layer and move it to the bottom of the layers palette. Flood fill with your choice of paper and add your mask. Merge the group.

Now go to the square layer below the frame layer. Add your plug in Xenofex 2, light fluffy clouds on the dark storm setting.

Then open the horse, resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. Move it below the square background layer from the frame. Also arrange it to the upper left hand corner of the canvas.

Open the covered wagon and cactus. Resize them then copy and paste as new layers. Move below the frame layer, then adjust them as you like. I moved them to middle part of the frame.

Open your tube of choice, resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. If you want to make your tube pop out of the frame like I did, dupliate it then move one below the frame layer. On the top one, erase the parts you don’t want seen outside the frame. On the bottom one, erase the parts outside the frame also.

Then open the brass button, resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. Move it to the part of the circle layers that is between the squares. Add the gun and holster to the top of it.

Open the flower bunch you like, resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. Move it and angle it so it curves slightly around the circle on the bottom. Duplicate it then go to image, flip.

Next open the horseshoe you like. Resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. Move to the top center of the tag. Add the Sheriff Star to the top of it.

Now open the boots and hay bales, resize them then copy and paste as new layers to the left of the tags. Arrange them as you like.

Finally add your text, copyrights, license number and tagger markings. Save and your done!

New Layout!




I made his beautiful layout using Oopsie Daisy's Winter's Lullaby kit. I wanted to write the tut for it, but when I went back to get the link for the template, its no longer available :( I was so sad! I will try to do another layout with this kit sometime this week. I used a LOT of the elements from the kit and it really doesn't even do it justice. I really love the kit, and when I found the picture of my daughter Otelia, it just fit. Hard to belive Otelia was only 4 in that picture and now almost 10! Time goes by so quickly.. its so crazy!

Please do stop by Oppsie's blog and check out her fabulous creations!

Ahoy Matey PTU





This tutorial was written on December 3, 2009 Shani aka Wicked Princess. The concept of the tag is mine and mine alone. Any resemblance to any other tag/tut is pure coincidence. This was written for those with working knowledge of PSP.
Supplies Needed:

++Paint Shop Pro ( I used 10 but any version should work)

++Scrap kit called Pirate Ohoj by PSP Girl can be found HERE

++Template 51 by Yvette can be found HERE

++Tube of choice or the one I used. I used the artwork of Henning Ludvigsen and it can be purchased HERE

++Plug ins:
-Gradient Glow

++Font and Mask of choice



Open the template in PSP, using your shortcut keys on your keyboard (SHIFT+D) duplicate the template as a new image. Close the original.

Open several papers of choice, resizing as needed. For example, when I look at the blue bar where it tells me what I’ve opened (say like paper 2) it tells me what percentage I’m viewing it at. For me it’s usually 16%, so I resize to 16% bringing it to 100%. ( I hope that made sense!) Once you’ve done this, minimize for later use.

Next go to the bottom template layer and go to selections, select all, then float, selections defloat. Add a gradient glow of your choosing. Don’t forget to go to selections, none then delete the template layer. Repeat this process for the rest of the template.

Add a new raster layer and move it to the bottom of the palette. Flood fill with your choice of paper. Add your mask and merge the group.

Open the folded map, resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. Move to the upper right hand of the template.

Next open the flag of choice, resize it then copy and paste as a new layer to the left of the template.

Now open the sand and tree, resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. Move it to the left of the tag at the bottom.

Add your tube of choice after resizing it into the center of the tag.

Open the treasure box, and barrel of choice. Resize it then copy and paste to the right of the tag as you like them. Add the sword, and key above that layering.

Also add an inkwell and anchor. I moved everything around until I was happy with how it was situated.

Open the rolled map, stones and other barrel, resize them and then copy and paste as a new layers. Adjust them and move as you like

Finally add your text, copyrights and license info. Add your tagger markings also

Save and your done. Thank you for trying my tutorial.

Creative Team Call for Scrappin Bratz!

Teach our Children Page Layout (PTU)


**SPECIAL TY TO MY FRIEND KELLI FOR THE USE OF HER PICTURES!**

This tutorial was written on December 11, 2009 Shani aka Wicked Princess. The concept of the tag is mine and mine alone. Any resemblance to any other tag/tut is pure coincidence. This was written for those with working knowledge of PSP.
Supplies Needed:

++Paint Shop Pro ( I used 10 but any version should work)

++Scrap kit by Sticky Kisses Designs called Christmas Time can be purchased HERE


++ Template 4 by Yanti Scraps can be found HERE

++Photo of your choice, a smaller one works best.


**NOTES:
-Add Drop shadow of choice as you go
-You can merger layers as you want to make things easier for yourself.

We’re doing something a little different, as this is a scrap page layout or picture tag.

Open the template in PSP, using your shortcut keys on your keyboard (SHIFT+D) duplicate the template as a new image. Close the original. ***NOTE I RESIZED THE TEMPLATE BY 15%

Open several papers of choice, resizing as needed. For example, when I look at the blue bar where it tells me what I’ve opened (say like paper 2) it tells me what percentage I’m viewing it at. For me it’s usually 16%, so I resize to 16% bringing it to 100%. ( I hope that made sense!) Once you’ve done this, minimize for later use.

Next go to the bottom template layer and go to selections, select all, then float, selections defloat. Don’t forget to go to selections, none then delete the template layer. Repeat this process for the rest of the template.

Open your photo, do any cleaning up of your photo that you like. For instance I usually go to adjust, remove digital camera noise and just use the default setting. This usually softens the picture a bit and gives it a pretty glow. Now resize it and put it behind your frame layer. Using your magic wand tool, click inside the frame and go to selections, modify expand by 4. Go to selections, invert then on the picture layer, hit the delete key. Now go to selections, none.

Open the glitter border, and then copy and paste as a new layer. Move it below the frame clusters. Adjust it so that its sits to the left of the cluster a bit.

Now open the paper bell, resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. Move it to the upper right hand corner of the page. Add the peppermint candy ornaments on either side at an angle. Then add a flower of choice after resizing to the top of the bell, where everything meets.

Next open two flowers of your choosing, resize them then copy and paste in a cluster at the upper right hand corner of the frame cluster. Arrange how you like.

Your going to use your glitter border again, move it 90 degree’s so its horizontal. Copy and paste as a new layer, moving it towards the bottom of the page. Add a button of your choosing to where the two borders intersect.

Add any text you like then save!

Your all done and congrats you’ve just made a page layout!

Gorjuss Holiday PTU






This tutorial was written on December 10, 2009 Shani aka Wicked Princess. The concept of the tag is mine and mine alone. Any resemblance to any other tag/tut is pure coincidence. This was written for those with working knowledge of PSP.
Supplies Needed:

++Paint Shop Pro ( I used 10 but any version should work)

++Scrap kit by Stargazer Muzings called Christmas Time can be purchased HERE

++ Template 81 by Melissa’s Creationz can be found HERE


++3 tubes of choice or the ones I used. I used the artwork of Suzanne Wolcott and her work can be purchased HERE

++Plug ins:
-Gradient Glow
-Muera Meister Copies

++Font and mask of your choice

**NOTES:
-Add Drop shadow of choice as you go
-You can merger layers as you want to make things easier for yourself.


Open the template in PSP, using your shortcut keys on your keyboard (SHIFT+D) duplicate the template as a new image. Close the original.

Open several papers of choice, resizing as needed. For example, when I look at the blue bar where it tells me what I’ve opened (say like paper 2) it tells me what percentage I’m viewing it at. For me it’s usually 16%, so I resize to 16% bringing it to 100%. ( I hope that made sense!) Once you’ve done this, minimize for later use.

Next go to the bottom template layer and go to selections, select all, then float, selections defloat. Add a gradient glow of your choosing. Don’t forget to go to selections, none then delete the template layer. Repeat this process for the rest of the template.

Add a new raster layer and move it to the bottom of the palette. Flood fill with your choice of paper. Add your mask and merge the group.

Open the poinsetta of your choosing. Resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. Use your plug in muera meister copies and set the x and y shift to 70. From there set the number to whatever you want it to be. Move this layer to below the template layers and above the mask layer.

Now open the poinsetta/ornament cluster. Resize then copy and paste as a new layer, towards the top of the template. Move it below the square frame layer and to the left. Duplicate it and go to image, mirror then image, flip.

Open the large ribbon with bow that you like, resize then copy and paste as a new layer. Arrange it so it looks like its wrapped around the triple frame.

Next open your tubes of choice, resize then copy and paste each one into the three frames you like. Note that I made mine look like they are popping out of the frame. To do this you move the tubes where you like them, then duplicate them. Move one set below the ribbon layer. Back on the top layer, use your eraser tool and erase the parts you don’t want seen outside the tube. Then go to the bottom tube layer and erase the parts you don’t want seen also. Thus giving the look like they are climbing out of the frame so to speak.

Then open the big poofy ribbon and bow of your choice. Resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. Move it to the top of the template and adjust as needed.

Now open the Christmas tree ornament, resize it then copy and paste as a new layer Move to the left hand frame towards the bottom, placing where you like. Duplicate it and move it to the right hand side frame where you like it.

Open the ornament of choice and resize. Copy and paste as a new layer towards the bottom of the template, on the bottom rectangle layer. Duplicate it and go to image, mirror. Add the poinsetta of choice after resizing to the top of the ornament.

Next open two candles of choice, resizing them. Group them together into the center bottom of the tag. Add an ornament of choice to the center of them, then a two bows above it.

Now add any text you like, copyrights and tagger markings. Save and your done! Thank you for trying my tutorial.

++This is a full size kit! You will need to resize dramatically.


Open the template in PSP, using your shortcut keys on your keyboard (SHIFT+D) duplicate the template as a new image. Close the original.

Open several papers of choice, resizing as needed. For example, when I look at the blue bar where it tells me what I’ve opened (say like paper 2) it tells me what percentage I’m viewing it at.

Open your tube of choice. Crop it as needed then copy and paste as a new layer. In the upper left hand frame, I made her look like she was popping out of the frame. To do this, duplicate the tube layer, and move the bottom one below the frame layer. On the top frame layer use your eraser tool, erasing what you don’t want seen outside the frame. On the one below the frame layer, remove the excess outside the frame.

Copy and paste your tube again, then go to image, mirror. Move this one below the frame layer and adjust. Use your magic wand tool and click inside the frame layer and go to selections, modify expand by 3 and go to your tube layer then hit delete. Go to selections, none.

Now open the snowflake with the bling. Resize it then copy and paste into the center of the tag. Move it so that it sits pretty much at the center connection of the frames. Add the bells to the center of that after resizing.

Next open the Christmas lilies, resize then copy and paste as a new layer. Move it to the left side of the bottom right hand side frame. Add an ornament and bow to the bottom of it. Do the same thing again for the frame directly above it but the opposite side.
