Dark Angel

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  Di Halim, (Gothic Angel) which you need a license to use.  

Scrap kit of choice. I am using a PTU kit, Dark Princess by Made by Justine 

Font of choice, I am using Angelic War

Plugins: No outside plugins

I do use Eye Candy 4000 Gradient Glow on all my copyrights/credits layers

I do this because some forums will make a .png tag show up with a black background and then your

copyright doesn't show. 

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.

Add a drop shadow of your choosing to tubes & elements throughout. I usually use 1, 1, 50, 5 unless otherwise noted.

Let's get started!

Open a new canvas 850 x 850 pixels with a white background

open Photo frame 1 copy and paste as a new layer 

click inside with your magic wand, selections, modify, expand 2, selections, invert

open paper 5 copy and paste as a new layer click delete on the keyboard

copy & paste the tube, resize 55% click delete on the keyboard, deselect 

hide the white background layer, merge visible, unhide white background

rotate right 25
