Her Love Is Like Poison PTU



This tutorial was written on June 13, 2010 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 Poisoned Rain by Wicked Princess Scraps (me) and can be purchased from HERE or HERE


++ Tube of choice or the one I used. I used the artwork of Cristina McAllister which can be purchased from CILM

++Font and mask of choice

++Plug Ins:

-Penta.com jeans



**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.

Open a canvas of 650x650. You ran resize it later if you like. Flood fill with your choice of paper. Add the mask you like and merge the group.


First open the glitter bracket. Resize just a bit. Copy and paste as a new layer. Using your magic wand tool, click inside the frame. Go to selections, modify, expand by 3. Add a new raster layer and flood fill with your choice of paper. Go to selections, none. Move this layer to below the bracket layer.

Open the glitter splat, resize then copy and paste as a new layer. Move it to below the background layer. Move it to the left bottom corner. Duplicate it then go to image, mirror. Merge down one layer. Duplicate it then go to image, flip. Adjust as you need to.

Then open the black flooring. Resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. Move it to the bottom of the canvas. You want it to really like a stage of sorts.

Now we’re going to work with our tube. Open your tube of choice, resize then copy and paste as a new layer. Adjust it where you want it. Note that I mirrored one of the tubes so it looks like they are facing each other. Once your satisfied with the placement of your tube, move it below the bracket layer. Duplicate it and go to adjust, blur, guassian blur set to 3.00. Then change that layers blend mode to overlay. Merge down one layer. Now using your penta plug in on the jeans setting, set to where you like it. Add your drop shadow you like also. Change the blend mode now to luminance. On your bracket layer use your magic wand tool and click inside the bracket. Go to selections, modify and expand by 3. On your tube layer, hit the delete key. Go to selections none. Pretty cool right?

Next open the paint drips. Resize then copy and paste as a new layer. Move below the bracket layer, at the top. Move them as you like them to the left. Duplicate it and go to image, mirror. Merge down one layer. Erase the parts you don’t want seen outside of the frame.

Open the valance swag. Resize then copy and paste as a new layer. Move to the upper part of the frame layer. Again, we’re working below it. Erase the parts you don’t want showing outside of the frame.

Then open the gothic door, resize then copy and paste to the left of the frame. Move it down some so you can see the top of the door a little. I moved it about half way to the left too. Duplicate it and go to image, mirror. Merge down one layer. On your bracket layer use your magic wand tool and click inside the bracket. Go to selections, modify and expand by 3. On the doors layer, hit the delete key.

Now open the web, resize it then copy and paste as a new layer. Move it towards the top, working above the bracket layer now. You want it kind of centered.

Next open the rose cluster. Resize then copy and paste as a new layer to the upper left hand corner. Duplicate it and go to image, mirror. Then add the winged heart to the center of the web.

Open the winged banner. Resize then copy and paste as a new layer to the bottom center of the tag. Adjust and move as you like it.

Then open the heart frame with horns. Resize then copy and paste as a new layer to the right of the frame. Angle it the way you like it.

Next open the skull and crossbones, resize it then copy and paste to the left of the frame. Duplicate it and then angle each to opposite directions.

Open your tube again, resize then copy and paste as a new layer to the left of the frame. Adjust it so it looks like she’s standing on the floor.

Then open the syringe. Resize then copy and paste as a new layer to the left of the frame. Next to the horn frame. Angle it towards the center. Open the poison drops and crop to one drop. Resize then copy and paste so that it looks like its coming out of the syringe.

Now open the candle cluster. Resize then copy and apste as a new layer. Move to the bottom right of the frame. It should look like its sitting on the floor. Add white chess pieces to the left of it.

Next add the emo bunny to the top part of the winged banner to the right.

Add your text, copyrights, tagger markings and text.

Save and your done!
