I Love psp

I am using the awesome artwork of Rion Vernon aka pinuptoons, only available at CILM please do not use this tube without the proper licence.

I have made the mask and animation and you can find it HERE,

Please do not share these supplies elsewhere but direct people here to download them thank you.

I am using blueberry font.

A nice quick and easy tutorial that assumes you have knowledge of psp and animation shop.

Ok here goes
Open a new image 600X600, flood fill with white, find and open my mask layer and copy and paste as a new layer, add your tube as a new layer and add a drop shadow of your choice.

Now open my i love psp which is in the supplies, copy and paste layer 1 as a new layer at the top of the image, go again to the i love psp and copy and paste layer 2 ensuring it is exactly on top of the previous one, repeat this until u get to layer 9, after you have pasted that one on X it out and paste layer 8 as a new layer.
Add your name in blueberry font, add your (c) info .

To animate
X out ALL the i love psp layers copy merged, and go to animation shop edit paste as a new animation then back to psp open the very bottom i love psp layer which should have just the i on it copy merged back to animation shop and paste AFTER current frame, repeat this until you have all the i love psp layers copied and pasted into animation shop.

Edit select all and change the frame properties to 30, then click on frame 11 and change the properties of this one to 100, then click on frame 10 and change the properties of this one to 50. Resize and save as a gif

I am using the art of Andrea Young which was a freebie from CILM at Christmas; please do not use this image unless you have a licence to do so.

Template by me HERE
Muras clouds HERE
Beckys mask 033 HERE

The TUT

Download the supplies and open them in psp, canvas size 600X600. shift+D to duplicate my template, then close the original, delete the (c) layer and the background layer, add a new layer in its place and use a nice blue colour I used #30baf7 apply mura’s clouds with these settings

When u have applied this add mask and deform until it fits the tag nicely.

Select the rainbow layers one by one... selections ~ select all~ selections ~float ~selctions ~defloat then go selections ~modify expand by 1... new layer and floodfill with a rainbow gradient of your choice. Do this till all the rainbow layers are filled then delete the original layers.

Then add a drop shadow to each layer I used 1, 1, 50, 2 colour black.

Add your tube resize to your liking, and ad a drop shadow of 5,5,50,5 black to the tube.

Move the word art up slightly so the tube doesn’t hide it lol

Add your name and (c) info resize to your liking, and save as a Jpeg.

If you wish to animate read on

Merge all the rainbow layers together then duplicate x2 so you have 3 layers.
On the bottom layer apply xenoflex 2 constellation with the settings below

Then apply to the middle layer but hit the random seed button a couple of times, do the same for the top layer.

Then x off the top and middle rainbow layers, edit copy merged, go to AS paste as a new animation, X out that layer in psp and un X the middle layer then edit copy merged AS paste AFTER current frame then do the same again for the top layer, don’t forget to resize the animation, and save.

Open a new raster layer 600*600 Flood fill with white Copy and paste the Polaroid tube as a new layer.

Click inside the black area of the first Polaroid with your magic wand with the following setting like so

Find the first tube you are using re size to your liking, ( I resized mine by 60% smart size as this stops the jaggered edge on the tube )
Then copy and pate as a new layer move the tube into the picture then selections invert then click delete on your keyboard, selections select none. It should look something like this.

Repeat this process with the other 2 pictures making sure that u always go back to the Polaroid layer when using the magic wand. When u have finished you should have something like this.

Go to the very bottom layer and add a new layer flood fill it with a colour that matches with your tubes Open WSL mask 181 then go to layers ~ new mask layer ~from image ~ click the drop down box and find WSL mask 181 source luminance ticked invert mask unticked like so

then click ok

Then your layer palette should look something like this Right click the layer that says mask and merge group. You should have something like this

Staying on the mask layer re size this layer ONLY by 85% bicubic. Then in the layer palette move the opacity to around 50% like so

Make sure you are on the top layer and add the word art as a new layer re-size by 85% Bicubic then colorize to your like. To colourize got to the colour you used for the mask layer and look at the colours numbers and remember the ones i have circled. Then go to Adjust ~hue and saturation ~colourise~ and in the 2 boxes put the 2 numbers u have just remembered. In my case it was 10 & 109 look at the screen shot below.

Lustrous Libra

This tutorial assumes you have a working knowledge of psp and some of its tools.



To complete this tutorial you will need;

A tube of choice. Im using the gorgeous art work of David Boller www.tuskentertainment.com .

To use his art you must purchase a license from Up Your Art first.

Mura's Meister Copies

Alien skin Xenofex 2 constellation (optional as its only for animation)

Font/s of choice

and

My supplies which can be found here :].

Open a new image 650x650 transparent canvas. Floodfill with white.

Open the scales and sky cloud from my supplies and minimise the sky cloud for now.

Copy and paste the scales onto the canvas and go to mura's copies.
Select Encircle and apply as below -



Choose a nice pastel colour from your tube as your background. Foreground on nil.

Grab your preset shape tool set on circle and draw out a medium sized circle on your canvas and move below the scales layer. Ensure the edges of the circle meet with the top line of the scales and then convert to raster. If the circle is too small or too big play about with the nodes until its the right size before converting.

Go to Adjust, Blur, Gausian blur with a radius of 8-10 depending on the colour you selected, apply.
Repeat.

Copy and paste the skycloud on to your canvas and duplicate. Keep one at the top and X it out.
Move one below your blurred circle layer. Duplicate this a few times until you have covered all the edges of the circle with it. You might want to rotate or mirror the duplicates to get a better difference around the edges.

Copy and paste your tube as a new layer. Move it below the top sky cloud layer and un X that skycloud now.
Duplicate the skycloud and then flip and mirror it. Place the duplicate next to the first to cover the lower section of your tube. Merge these two visable.

Hide all layers except for the lower sky cloud layers. Merge them visable. Add a drop shadow of choice in WHITE.

Un X all other layers.

If your animating your tag follow the next steps if not please skip them and go straight to the text addition further down.
Activate your tube layer and duplicate for a total of 4.

X out the bottom one and the top two. With your remaining tube layer active go to xenofex 2 constellation and apply with the following settings -



Repeat this for the next two higher tube layers pressing random seed once each time.
X out all xenofex layers.

Join back here if you skipped the animation.

Activate the top layer in your canvas and grab your preset shape tool set on elipse. Line width of 5, background nil, foreground black.

Draw out a circle lining it up with the outside of the scales. Dont convert to raster!!
Grab your text tool and hold your cursor over the elipse you have just drawn until it changes into an A and then click, choose a font , change the foreground and background to gold or any other colour of choice and type out your title, I wrote Lustrous Libra.

When done Click the + in your layer pallette next to the vector layers and X out the elipse layer. Right click the text layer, Convert to raster.

Use the same method to add your copyright and if needed license info and taggers mark if required.

Change your foreground and background to the same colour as your inner circle and type out your name over the skycloud layer in the lower part of the tag. Once satisfied with it convert to raster and add a gradient glow or drop shadow of choice to the text.

Drop shadow any other layers you want to and resize all layers to your liking.

If you arent animating save your tag in your preferred format and thank you for trying my tutorial :].

If you are animating un X the first xenofex layer and right click the top bar of your image, copy merged, over to animation shop, paste as new animation.

Back to psp, X out the first xenofex layer, Un X the middle one, copy merged, into animation shop, paste after current frame.

Back to psp again, X the middle xenofex layer, Un X the top one, copy merged, into animation shop, Paste after current frame.

Right click view animation, save as .gif and your done!
