Christmas Bunny

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 Alehandra Vanheck (Christmas With Rabbit, which is an Exclusive tube at PFD) which you need a license to use.  

Scrap kit of choice. I am using a PTU kit, Christmas Bunny by Amy Marie

she made this kit to match Christmas With Rabbit tube 

Font of choice, I am using Caneletter Script

Mask: WSL84 by Wee Scots Lass Creations, you'll find the link to all the masks
on the right sidebar slightly down the page

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, and I think it helps set it off against the tag so it's a little more visible. 

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.

open 81 copy and paste as a new layer resize 85% rotate 90
