Good Morning

For this tutorial you will need the following:

Paint Shop Pro, I am using PSP X, you should be able to use any version.

Tube of choice, I am using the artwork of Suzanne Woolcott, which you need a license to use. You can get it at her store, here.

Scrap kit of choice. I am using  Good Morning, a PTU kit by Farrah's Designer Scraps, which you can get here.

Font of choice, I am using A Little Pot & AL Meaningful

Mask:  Vix Big Mask 18, which you can find on her site here.

Plugins: No outside plugins used

Just remember that my choices of papers and elements is just a suggestion, change it up and make it yours! You don't have to follow mine exactly.

Let's get started!

Open a new canvas 650 x 650 with a white background.

Open frame 2, copy and paste as a new layer, resize by 22%.

Click inside it with your magic wand, selections, modify, expand by 3. 

Open paper 2, resize to 600 x 600 pixels, copy and paste as a new layer, selections, invert, click delete on your keyboard. Deselect and drag this layer below the frame layer. 

Merge these two layers together, rotate to the left by 20, & add a drop shadow.

Open the good morning card element, resize to 525 pixels on the width. Copy and paste as a new layer, add a drop shadow.

Open frame 3, copy and paste as a new layer, resize by 30%.

Click inside it with your magic wand, selections, modify, expand by 3.

Open paper 9, resize to 600 x 600 pixels, copy and paste as a new layer, selections, invert, click delete on your keyboard. Leave selected.

Drag the paper layer below the frame layer. 

Open your tube, copy and paste as a new layer, arrange it how you want it within the frame.

Take your eraser tool and carefully erase the bits you don't want hanging over the edge of the frame.

Deselect, add a drop shadow to your tube and your frame.

Take your preset shapes tool set on ellipse and draw out a circle that just fits over the round frame. DO NOT change to raster, leave as a vector layer.

Set your foreground to white and background to #445270.

We're going to make a curved text here around the frame.

Take your text tool, and where it says "create as" change it to floating. Now hover your text tool over the ellipse you drew out until you see a little curved line pop up under the A. Write out your text "good morning" or whatever you choose to use. You might have to play around with it a bit to find where to start writing your text so it fits across the top of the frame properly.

Once you get that done, deselect the text, add a drop shadow, and delete the ellipse.

Now to add elements. Use whichever elements you'd like. I added the following with any amounts I resized next to it. Add drop shadows where necessary.

Coffee maker, resize by 15%

Coffee, resize by 15%

Pancakes, resize by 12%

Muffin, resize by 12%

Button 2, resize by 45%, duplicate, image mirror

Ribbon, resize by 14%

Open paper 10, resize by 655 x 655, copy and paste as a new layer, just above your white background. 

Open your mask in psp, go to layers, new mask layer, from image, find the mask in the drop down box, click on it, click ok. 

Go to your layer palette, find the mask, delete it, click yes. Merge group.

Crop, resize, add your text, credits and copyright as needed, save & you're done!
