Let's Begin--

Open the template in PSP. Hit Shift+D to duplicate it and close the original. Delete the watermark layer.

Click on the rectangle layer. Go to selections-Select All, Selections-Float, Selections-Defloat, open a paper of choice from the kit, copy and paste it onto your canvas, go to Selections-Invert, hit your delete key. Selections-Select None. Delete the rectangle template layer.

Repeat this step for the thin rectangle and the frame background layers of the template.

Add a droop shadow of 0,0,88,0 to the rectangle layer and the thin rectangle layer.

Click on the frame layer, go to Selections-Select All, Float, Defloat, then add a new raster layer, flood fill the layer with a color of choice, Selections-Select None. Delete the frame template layer. Go to Effects-Plug ins-DSB flux-Bright Noise and change the number to around 60 and make sure mix is selected and click ok.

Open your tube of choice. Copy and paste it onto your canvas. Resize it if needed. Position it where you want it in the frame. Duplicate it and move the original below the frame. Close off the top copy and click on the original copy. Use your eraser tool to erase any parts of the tube that are sticking out below the frame. Open back up the copy of your tube and click on it. Add drop shadow. Then use your eraser tool to erase the bottom part of the tube up to the inside edge of the frame. Click on the frame layer and add drop shadow.

Click on the stars layer. Go to Selections-Select All, Float, Defloat, then Selections-Modify-Expand by 1, add a new raster layer, flood fill with color of choice, selections-select none. Delete stars template layer.

Duplicate the stars layer twice. Close off the top 2 stars layers and click on the bottom one. Go back to the DSB flux plug in with the same settings and click ok. Close off that layer and open up the next one. Go back to DSB Flux Bright Noise but click the mix button once. Close off that layer and open up the last one, go back to the plug in and click the mix button twice. Close off that layer and open up the bottom one. Go to Effects-Plug Ins-Eye Candy 4000 Gradient Glow, change the top number to 3 then click the color tab then click on fat. Click ok. Repeat this for the other 2 stars layers. Now add a drop shadow to each of the stars layer. Keep the top 2 closed and the bottom one open for now.

Open the doodle element from the kit, copy and paste it onto your canvas, resize it by 80%, mirror it, place it in the bottom right hand corner like shown in my tag, add drop shadow.

Open a flower of choice from the kit. Copy and paste it onto your canvas, resize it by 35%, add drop shadow and position where you want it. Duplicate it and move it to another place on your tag.

Open the diamond from the kit, copy and paste it onto your canvas, resize it by 45%, move it onto the flower in the middle of the flower. Duplicate it and move it to the middle of the other flower.

Add your name and any text you wish to add.

Open the lip print from the kit. Copy and paste them onto your canvas, resize by 50, rotate to the right by 10 degrees, add drop shadow, and place where you wish on your tag.

Add copyright information. Crop and resize if needed.

Make sure that the top 2 copies of your stars layers are still closed off and the bottom copy is open. Copy Merged.

Open AS, paste as new animation.

Back to PSP, close off that stars layer and open up the next one. Copy merged.

Back to AS, paste after current frame.

Back to PSP, close off that stars layer and open up the last starts layer. Copy Merged.
