Mask; WSL_Mask 16

Thank you for sharing your wonderful work!

Let's get started

Open up template duplicate close original

Working layer by layer

First you need to move the hearts over to the left hand side, as in my sample above

1st Layer

Rec 3
use your magic want tool to select inside the rectangle
Scrapkit; open PP2 paper resize to 10pixels; copy and paste into template select the rectangle again; Selections >Invert / select paper layer again and hit delete. Selections > None.. Now use your magic wand tool to select the black border around Rec 3 using ##414317 flood fill we need to bevel the border.. use the following settings; Bevel 1 > Width 2 > Smooth 20 > Depth 2 > Ambience 39 > Shininess 0 > Angle 315 > Intensity 35 > Elevation 30 / Selections > select none

2nd Layer
Rec 2
We are going to do everything we did above exept use PP10 from the scrapkit and use #000000 as the border color

3rd Layer
Rec 1
Again use everything as Layer 1 except use PP8 from the scrapkit and use #30373d as the border color

Now lets do the background bar layers
Gray bars bg
Now all I did was pull elements resized and dupliated the elments as necessary to make sure they went the full length across the bars

Top bar:
GAB _ Friends Elements / Rik-Rak2
Resize to 20 pixels / Copy and paste onto template and move right above the top bar. You will need to move to the right just until the end meets the end of the bar and then use your selection tool to cut off the right end. Once you have done this lets colorize. Go to: Adjust > Hue and Saturation > Hue/Saturation/Lightness use these settings; Hue 96 > Sat 25 > Lightness -73

2nd bar:

GAB_Friends Elements / Button Border
Resize to 15 pixels / Copy and paste onto template and move right above the 2nd bar. You will need to duplicate this layer to extended it over the whole length of the bar. Erase any ends you do not need.

3rd bar:
GAB _ Friends Elements / Rick-Racklong

Resize to 20 pixels / Copy and paste onto template and move right above the top bar. You will need to move to the right just until the end meets the end of the bar and then use your selection tool to cut off the right end. Once you have done this lets colorize. Go to: Adjust > Hue and Saturation > Hue/Saturation/Lightness use these settings; Hue 210 > Sat 19 > Lightness -12

4th bar:

GAB _ Friends Elements / Rik-Rak2
Resize to 20 pixels / Copy and paste onto template and move right above the top bar. You will need to move to the right just until the end meets the end of the bar and then use your selection tool to cut off the right end. Once you have done this lets colorize. Go to: Adjust > Hue and Saturation > Hue/Saturation/Lightness use these settings; Hue 32 > Sat 46 > Lightness -73

5th bar:

Copy and paste from bar #2 the button layer

6th bar:
Copy and paste from bar #3
we need colorize
Hue 0 > Saturation 69 > Lightness - 15

Hearts!
If your hearts are postioned where mine are lets get started
Select the inside of the top heart and delete the inside of the heart. Now select the border of the heart and flood fill with #570d0d. Now select the inside of the heart again Selection > Expand by 2 pixels. Go to PP6 resize to 10 pixels, copy and paste onto template, position over heard, Invert selection, select paper layer, hit delete. Now move this layer below the border outline. If you would like to use the stitching as I did I just used my Heart Preset tool with white stiching and the line should be Line End Gap with width 2. Create your heart and munipulate the heart so it looks like stiching within your heart layer.
CLOSE all layers except the layers associated with the heart then merge these layers visible.

Now copy and paste this layer and move down like mine.

Now open FFO_Fastener

Resize by 10 copy and paste onto template as mine is.

Bow
Open Bow 1 resize to 7 pixels / copy and paste onto template and position on the left Rec to the top.

Clip
open Clip 3
Resize to 20 pixels / copy and paste onto template. NOTICE this part is alittle wierd!!
flip the clip and position so the string looks like it's going between the bow, duplicate this layer and close the bottom one. Now make sure the top layer is selected and erase all of the yarn that goes past the bow also erase the string that goes past your bottom hear layer. OPEN the duplicated layer, flip again and free rotate by 20 to the right, position so top yarn layer and this layer looks like it's a continuous piece of yarn and erase any yarn you do not need. Use my sample as a guidline.

Last but not least your Tube

Open your tube image copy and past it onto the template. place tube over Rec1 and erase the bottom half of the tube so it looks like she is standing inside the rec. Now duplicate layer, erase everything but the VoDoo doll and position the voodoo doll in Rec2 and lower the opacity so it looks more like a mirror image or reflection.

WORDS

On the top you will see the word art "Im crazy for you" move this up and make your own wording like mine "But don't cross me!"

Mask Layer

You will do this twice and position on to the top right and one to the bottom left. So pick any colors you would like touse and create to mask layers.

Once you have finished this you should be done!! Remember to watermark and copyright all your work!

Supplies needed:
Template and Scrapkit are all by the talented Bea at Beas Creation
Template #12 here
ScrapKit: Family here
Thank you for sharing your wonderful work!

Let's get started

Open up the template, duplicate, close original
We will be working layer by layer

Layer 1
Close all layers except for Kreis layer / Selections > Float
Open up paper #5 copy and paste into template. Reduce size to 50% move paper so it's over your selected circle / Selections > invert / select paper layer and hit delete. KEEP floating ants but go back to Selection > invert > Selections > Modify by: 16
Open up paper #7 copy and paste into template. Reduce size by 50% and move paper over selection and make it so there are pretty butterflies showing. Selections > Invert / select paper hit delete / select none

Layer 2:
Rahmen Rechteck
Selections > Float
Open Paper #4 copy and paste into template reduce size to 70% / Selection > Invert select/ select paper layer and hit delete.


Layer 3
Rechteck
Selections > Float
Open Paper #12.. such pretty paper :) copy and paste into template resize paper by 50%. Now we are going to have to stretch the paper to make it fit in the window; use my siggy as a sample.

Layer 4
Rahmen Dia
Selections > Float
Open Paper #5 copy and paste into template reduce by 85% / Selections > Invert / Select the paper layer and hit delete. ** just so you know that some of the paper is probably hiding on the top and bottom that was not able to delete. You may want to erase these bits to avoid wierd drop shadow effects.

Layer 5
Dia
Selections > Float
Open Paper #7 Copy and Paste into template reduce by 70% / Selections > Invert / Select the paper layer and hit delete.

In this next part it's totally optional but if you look at my example above you will see extra windows in the Dia area.. you can either make these or skip this part. I just made a rectangle line 3 points using #791113 then rotated to the right by 15 pts coping and pasting 2 more times. I then clicked inside the squares with my magic wand tool and added my other Rion characters.

Layer 5
Bloom layer
Close this layer we will not use it. Instead go to the Elements folder of your scrapkit and grab the family heart 1. I added the word Friend to my heart. Once done copy and paste into your template. Resize heart by 40% and position where the bloom was.

Layer 6
Abger, Rechteck
Selections > Float
Flood fill with #791113
Go back to your scrapkit elements folder and open Flower #7 copy and paste into template / resize by 30% and move to the top of the Abger, Rechteck layer
Now open the Bead Element / Copy and Paste into the template / Resize by 60% / Rotate to the left by 15% and move down below the Flower #7 layer

Go to the Ribbon folder in your scrapkit and open Ribbon #2 / copy and paste into template / Resize by 80%. Go back and open up Ribbon #4 / copy and paste into template / resize by 70% and move above Ribbon #2. You will see it's too short so you need to duplicate this layer and make the ribbon longer then erase on the end to make it match the green ribbon. Both of these layers need to be moved below the Dia layer.

Open up element Butterfly 1 / copy and paste into template / Resize by 40% / mirror image and move to the end of the ribbons like in my sample.

Open up element Family Deko / copy and paste into template and move as the bottom layer. I copied this layer twice and had to do some moving around to get it how I wanted it. You will need to do the same by flipping, mirror.. erasing some sections. Just play with it til you like it.

Last... add your tube top the top.

You will need to add drop shadows as well. I used V=3 H = -3 O = 48 B = 2 Color =Black

Remember to watermark your work and to put all your copyright info and your done!

Supplies needed:
Gina's Template #27 Here remember to leave her some love. Thank you Gina for your talent!
Scrapkit by Bea Creations "Funky Dots" Here.
Thank you Bea for sharing your scrapkits with all of us!
WSL_Mask12 by Weescotslass

Font of choice, I used Baby Kruffy

Open Gina's Template duplicate and close original. We need to make the canvas larger so go to
go to Image > Canvas Size > and make it 800 by 800, we will crop later.

We are going to work each layer as we go so close ALL layers expect for the 4 Bracket Layer.
With the 4 Bracket Layer selected go to selections > select all > float > Modify > Contrast by:9
We need to make this a new layer so go to Selections > Promote Selection to Layer.

Go to your scrapkit backgrounds and find paper #3 and open it copy and then paste it as new layer on your template reduce the paper size by 60 pts and move it over to the top left bracket.

Now go to Selections Invert; select the paper layer again and hit delete, you will notice that some
of the paper is in the bottom bracket, it's okay for now we can erase it later if we need to. KEEP the template with the marching ants and Inverted so we can finish the rest of the brackets. You will do everything the same as above but with the following papers:
Paper #4 goes in the top right bracket
Paper #8 goes in the bottom left bracket
Paper #2 goes in the bottom right bracket

Once you have all the paper in your brackets Remember I said we would need to erase? Well here is where we need to erase any papers that have crossed eachother so deselect the layers and erase any parts that have crossed each other, once you have it cleaned up merge the paper layers.

Now to chipboard them:
Go to Effects > 3D effects> Inner Bevel and use these settings: Bevel #1 Width: 2 Smoothness: 20 Depth: 2 Ambience: 39 Shininess:0 Angle: 315 Intensity: 35 Elevation: 30 Color: white hit okay.

Open back up the bottom Bracket #4, we need to flood fill this layer with #cca353 (Selection > Select All > Float) chipboard this layer as well with the same settings as above.

Open next layer: Scalloped Oval/ selections > select all > float open Paper #12 copy and past into the scalloped layer (no need to resize unless you want to) Select > Invert make sure the paper layer is selected then hit delete.

Open next layer: Left Rectangle/ selections > select all > float Open payer #9 copy and past into left rectangle, resize by 60pts again make sure paper is completley over square / Select > Invert make sure the paper layer is selected then hit delete.

Open next layer: Right Rectangle/ selections > select all > float Open paper #7 copy and past into left rectangle, resize by 60pts again make sure paper is completley over square / Select > Invert make sure the paper layer is selected then hit delete.

Open next layer: Right Circle/ Selections > select all > float > modify > contrast 13 Selections > Promote Selection to layer Open Paper #15 copy and paste into Right Circle / select > Invert make sure the paper layer is selected then hit delete.

Select Right Circle bottom layer again, Selections > select all > float and flood fill with #98b17f

Open next layer: Left Circle/ Selections > select all > float > modify > contrast 13 Selections > Promote Selection to layer. Open Paper #14 copy and paste into Right Circle / select > Invert make sure the paper layer is selected then hit delete.

Select Left Circle bottom layer again, Selections > select all > float and flood fill with #8f3754

As in my tag you can put two character heads in the circle.. I will leave this up to you.
You will also need to select and flood fill the brackets in the middle of the template as I have done.

Open both bow #4 and #5 resize by 50 pts / rotate by 20 left and right .

You may need to sharpen a bit.

Open Ribbon #3 copy and past onto template and resize by 75pts and move to the bottom of the template.

Open up the tube of choice copy and paste and resize as needed.

I have put a drop shadow on ALL layers of (left side) -2, 3 , 40 , 2 (remember when you do the right side you want to flip the numbers)

MASK Background
Create a new Raster Layer and send to the bottom (remember to turn off the white layer) Flood Fill background with #bb446b. Open up and apply mask. You can resize and position where you would like.

You can resize now if you wish and crop down.

So I hope you enjoyed my first real tutorial. Let ,me know if anything was unclear and confusing lol
