Supplies needed
Tube of choiceFont of choice (I used bank gothic)
Mask of choice
Toadies - What Are You
Eye Candy 4000 - Glass
My frame and doodle here or frame and doodle of choice
I used the beautiful art of Suzanne Woolcott. You must purchase a licence to use her art which can be done here
Lets begin!
1. Open a new canvas 600x600 and fill white.
2. Add a new raster layer and fill with a light colour from your tube. Apply your mask of choice to this layer. Delete the mask and answer yes to the question asked. Ungroup layers.
3. Effetcs, texture effects, weave with the following settings.
Gap size - 3
Width - 5
Opacity - 3
Fill gaps checked
Change gap colour to one to compliment your masked layer.
4. Image, resize by 90%. Duplicate the masked layer, and on the original, adjust, blur, guassian blur - 20.
5. Effects, toadies - what are you with the default settings.
6. Copy and paste my frame or frame of choice and bring to the top. Colorise to suit.
7. Copy and paste your tube of choice and add a drop shadow. I also resized my tube by 60%. Delete any that is sticking out of the bottom of the frame so it looks like shes standing behind it.
8. Grab your preset shape tool set to star shape, outer null, inner a colour from your tube, draw out a small star. Convert to raster and repeat the weave effect we used earlier, but this time change the gap size to 2 and change the colour. Add an inner bevel of choice. Add adrop shadow.
9. Duplicate the star and place a few around the frame.
10 Again grab your preset shape tool set to a heart shape, outer null, change the colour for your heart to another colour from your tube. Draw out a small heart, convert to raster, click on the raster deform tool and holding down the shift key, pull one side of your heart down slightly. Effects, eye candy 4000 - Glass with the default settings but change the colour to white. Add a drop shadow.
11. Duplicate again and place them around your tag. Copy and paste my doodle as a new layer and place down the side (I mirrored mine). Duplicate and image, rotate, free rotate by 90 degrees left. Add a drop shadow and delete some of it to make it look like its intwined in the frame.
12. Add your copyright information, watermark and name, save as a jpeg and your all done.
