About me

Hello and welcome to my blog! I am Vivienne, living in the UK and married with a son who now lives in Perth, Australia and a daughter who has given me two gorgeous grandsons! Paint Shop has been my hobby for more years than I can remember and I love making tags. I have always loved doing tutorials written by others and a couple of years ago started writing them myself. As well as tag tutorials, I also have a Tips and Tricks page where you will find tutorials on basic Paint Shop techniques. I hope you enjoy my blog and have fun with my tutorials. Please be sure also to check out the Tag Gallery and see some of the awesome results to the tutorials!

Open a new transparent canvas 750 by 700 pixels and fill with white.

Make a new layer, select all, paste paper 9 into the selection, deselect, apply the mask and resize it 85%.

Paste spray 2, resize 75% and move into place.

Paste the main tube, resize 32%, place in position and apply the drop shadow.

Paste element 1, resize 30%, place in position and apply the drop shadow.

Paste element 9, resize 40%, position behind the tube, duplicate, bring the copy to the top, duplicate it again, close off one copy for now, mirror the other copy and position on the left, apply the drop shadow to each.

Paste element 57, resize 30%, place in position and apply the drop shadow.

Paste element 86, resize 30%, place in position and apply the drop shadow.

Open the closed copy of element 9, bring it to the top, flip it, place in position and apply the drop shadow.

Paste element 58, resize 30%, place in position and apply the drop shadow.

Paste element 95, resize 20%, place in position and apply the drop shadow.

Paste element 5, resize 8% and mirror, place in position and apply the drop shadow.

Paste element 110b, resize 23%, place in position and apply the drop shadow.

Check your layers and make any adjustments.  

Paste the close up tube just above the mask, resize 55% and change the blend mode to “Hard Light”, activate the mask layer, select all, float and defloat the mask, invert the selection, position the tube in the selection then hit delete and deselect.
