The above tag is what we will be creating. It is written for PSP9

These tuts are for everyone beginners included.

Supplies needed

Tubes of choice, I used ones from Rion Vernon you need a GILD licence to use his work

Filter needed Xero and Xenofex here

Font decorative elements, big daisy small daisy zip here

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Place filters into your psp plugins folder.

Place font into your fonts folder in control panel

Then close psp and restart it.

Lets begin!

1. Open a new file 500 by 500 white background. Dont worry we will crop it later. Open your tubes and the daisies supplied

2. New layer select the font decorative elements. And type a capital P make the size 300 use a colour from your main tube. Add a drop shadow.

3. Copy and paste your main tube as a new layer, position it where you like or see mine as reference.

4. Also copy and paste your other tubes and paste them and resize them. You may need to use your eraser too to trim them to fit in your shape (see mine)

5. Now copy and paste the big daisy as a new layer. colourize to match your shape. And arrange to the bottom of the layers pile, just above the background layer. Duplicate the daisy twice and position them where you like. Heres what I have so far.

6. Now, hide all the layers including the background layer, leaving your 3 daisies. right click and merge visible.

7. Now open the small daisy, colourise if you wish and paste as new layer. Duplicate it several times and position them around your tag.

8. New layer add copyright info and your name. I used a font called 'Dali' also add any additional text if you like.

9. Ok select the daisy merged layer and go effects>plugins>Alienskin Xenofex >constellation. These settings

10. Apply then select your shape layer and go effects>plugins>xero>fritillary these settings

11. Apply and save the tag as image1.png

12.Edit undo fritillary, edit undo constellation. Then again Click on the daisy layer. Effects>plugins>Xenofex>constellation. Same settings only hit random seed once.

13. Again select the shape layer and apply the fritillary same settings this time move the slider on variation down to 7

14. Save this as image2.png. Edit undo the effects again and apply them again remembering to hit random seed on constellation and move the variation slider on fritillary to 6. Save theis as image3.png
