Purple Shadow




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 Arthur Crowe, which you need a license to use.  At the time of this tut, the tube I’m using was not yet released in the store, but coming soon.


Scrap kit of choice. I am using  the matching scrap kit, which is also coming soon, called Purple Shadow by Sandy’s Design

Font of choice, I am using Rat Infested Mailbox

Mask of your choice, I used Vix Big Mask 01

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.

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 white background.  

Open frame 3, copy and paste as a new layer.
Take your freehand selection tool, and click on each corner of the frame, slightly inside the edge.
Selections, invert.
Open paper 2, copy and paste as a new layer, arrange within the frame, then click delete on your keyboard.
Leave selected.
Open your tube, copy and paste as a new layer, resize by 75%. 
Arrange in the frame, take your eraser tool and erase the bits that hang off the bottom edge.

Now for the elements, you can check my tag for placement.
