Snaggable versions of this tag in my Fotki album
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 Cuddly Rigor Mortis Individual tube 10-1 which you need a license to use, available at CDO.
Scrap kit of choice. I am using the PTU scrap kit by Monti, IB-Cuddly Rigor Mortis Individual tube 10-1 inspired by the tube.
Template 709 by Millie's PSP Madness
Font of choice, I am using Breamcatcher
Plugins: Eye Candy 4000 Gradient Glow
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!
