Summer Wedding

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 Kreative Graphics (Romance) which you need a license to use. 

Scrap kit of choice. I am using a PTU kit, Secret Garden by Jackie's Jewels

Font of choice, I am using Black Olives

Mask: Vix Big Mask 1

Plugins: No outside plugins used
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 1000 x 1000 pixels with a white background

Open the following and copy and paste as a new layer
element 44 resize  80% arrange just above the center
element 57 resize  80% arrange on the right of the trellis, duplicate & mirror
element 84 arrange so it looks like it's going under the trellis in the center

element 98 recolor by changing the hue to 60 saturation to 161
arrange it behind the trellis and fence layers
duplicate it several times and arrange it around so it looks like the area is covered in grass
I mirrored some and flipped some to make it fit together better.
Once your done merge all the grassy layers together, except the one behind the fence

Copy and paste your tube as a new layer, resize by 65% arrange on the left side of trellis

element 29 arrange on far right, in front of fence
element 66 arrange on left, duplicate & drag to the right
element 50 resize  25%  duplicate 3 times and arrange on left
element 31 resize  65% arrange on left
element 47 resize 45% arrange by trees on right
element 58 resize  45% arrange by trellis on left side, duplicate, arrange on far right side

Add paper 15 above the white background

apply your mask

resize 125%

crop and resize
add your copyright and credits as needed
