Let's Start !!!!
STEP 1
Open the template from Bea:
You may remove/delete the top
layer. It is the layer with the
watermark on it and we are not
going to use it.
Activate the layer after the
bottom layer.
It is the layer with the circle.
(Kreis)
Selections --> Select All --> Selections
Float --> Selections Defloat.
Choose a paper of your choice
from the scrapkit.
Copy and Paste as a new layer on
the template.
Selections --> Invert.
Press the Delete key on your
keyboard.
Close the layer "Kreis" by
clicking on the eye in the Layer
Palette.
Activate the layer called "Striche
Kreis".
It is the dots around the circle
Selecties --> alles selecteren
--> selecties zwevend -->
selecties niet zwevend.
Selections --> Select All --> Selections
Float --> Selections Defloat.
Choose the same paper or a paper
of your choice from the scrapkit.
Copy and Paste as a new layer on
the template.
Selections --> Invert.
Press the Delete key on your
keyboard.
Close the grey dots by clicking
on the eye in the Layer Palette.
Activate to the next layer -->
abger.Rechteck
It is the rectangle with the
flower in the circle.
Choose another paper of your
choice from the scrapkit and
repeat the same steps as before:
Selecties --> alles selecteren
--> selecties zwevend -->
selecties niet zwevend.
Selections --> Select All --> Selections
Float --> Selections Defloat.
Choose the same paper or a paper
of your choice from the scrapkit.
Copy and Paste as a new layer on
the template.
Selections --> Invert.
Press the Delete key on your
keyboard.
Close the layer (abger, Rechteck)
by clicking on the eye in the
Layer Palette.
Activate the next layer : (Rechteck)
Repeat the same steps as before
until all the template layers
are filled with papers of your
choice from the scrapkit.
STEP 2
Now you
can add Drop Shadow effects to
all the paper layers
Effects --> 3D Effects --> Drop
Shadow : 0 0 50 10 Black
Copy the tube you are going to
use and Paste as a New Layer.
Place it where you think it will
look nice.
------> I
duplicated the tube I used,
resized with 120 percent and pasted
it into the rectangle frame on
the right of my image.
It can be done like this:
Paste your tube again as a New
Layer en resize with 120%, all
layers NOT ticked.
Layers --> Arrange --> Move
Down.
Activate the grey template layer
in the layer palette (Rahmen
Dia) and unlock it.
With the Magic Wand, select all
3 parts of the frame and move
the second, bigger tube so it
fits nicely in the frames.
------> You can rotate the tube
layer as well to have it fit
nicely.
Make sure that the layer of
your resized tube are activated
!!!!!!!
Selections --> Invert -->
Delete.
Now you can lock the grey Rahmen
Dia layer again.
STEP 3
I still found the image a bit
empty and now I am going to add
some embellishments.
Activate the bottom layer, it is
the white layer (Hintergrund).
Image - Canvas Size --> Add 100
pixels more than the size of
your current image.
This way you get 50 pixels on
each side of your image and thus
more space for the tag.
Make sure that the placement is
set in the centre when you
resize your canvas.
Now that the canvas size is
bigger, you can see that a piece
of the resized tube are showing
but you can just use the
selection tool or eraser to
remove it.
Floodfill the layer with white
again to make sure it's
completely filled.
Then:
Layers --> New Raster Layer.
Selections --> Select All
Open one of the scrap papers and
Paste into Selection.
Now we are going to :
Layers - New Raster Layer -->-->
Layer --> load mask from disk.
Look for a mask of your choice.
Tick all the top settings :
Source Luminance --> Fit to
Canvas --> Hide all Mask
Invert transparency is NOT
ticked.
Click on Load
Layers --> Merge --> Merge
Group.
Now you can decorate your tag
with some of the other materials
from the scrapkit.
When you are satisfied with the
result, merge all the layers
together.
Add your name or watermark on
your creations, as well as the
copyright information if needed.
