Called “Happiness”

I am using the PTU artwork

 Of Joel Adams

I am using a FTU Template by

Millies PSP Madness

I upsized the canvas size to 700x700 I removed the word art as it did not match the kit….

Delete the background layer (just the white part)

Raster 1 flood fill with paper 5

Raster 2 flood fill with paper 6

Raster3 flood fill with paper 19

Raster 4 flood fill with paper 11

Raster 5 flood fill with paper 20

Merge raster 6&7 then flood fill with paper 6

Add this drop shadow

Vertical 5

Horizontal 3

Opacity 100

Blur 7

Color black

Merge 8&9 negative image it then add a gradient glow of your choice I picked one from the kit/tube since they are both blues

I added the same drop shadow as above; I normally use just 1 drop shadow easier that way for me…

Take one of the tube’s paste it behind the merged layer and crop just her face off, do this how ever you feel most confident in just getting the same face in both, mirror one so the kind of look inside to the tag…

Click on Raster 2

Border c/p mirror re-size by 55% pull to the far right hand edge of the square, add the drop shadow from above…

Raster 1 c/p bling 2 re-size by 55% pull to cover the circle add a sharpen more to the element…

Click on raster 6(small circles) open Frame8 c/p re-size by 45% pull so it covers the top, one then copy the re-sized version paste it on the same layer over the bottom one…

Click on raster 5 c/p flower 1 mirror re-size by 50% pull to the middle of the small circles…

Leaf 4 c/p re-size by 65%,  then add a sharpen more pull to the left hand edge of your tag…

Go to the top layer open 2 c/p re-size by 35% pull to the bottom edge of left circle…

Gem c/p re-size by 20% pull to the middle of the bow, then add a sharpen more to it...

Books c/p re-size by 40% mirror then pull to the lower right hand edge of your tag…

Birdcage c/p re-size by 35% pull to make it sit on top of books…

Bird2 c/p re-size by 15% make sure to add a sharpen more to element, and then pull it to make it sit in the middle of the cage…

Books 2 c/p re-size by 25% pull to the front of books…

Bottle2 c/p re-size by 30% pull to the left hand edge of books…

Flower2 c/p rotate 45° to the right  re-size by 30% then pull it to the left hand edge of bottle2…

Light2 c/p re-size by 30% pull to stand on top of the books by the bird cage…

Flower 6 c/p mirror re-size by 35% pull to the far edge of your tag, the cat will cover up the stems of this bundle…

Cat c/p mirror re-size by 40% pull to the left hand edge of the rose…

Take the tube you used for the face, or a different one that can sit down, and paste it pull to the left hand edge of the cat, and re-size it by 35% …

I am taking a brush and adding a sparkle layer over the tube, and a few other places, you can use any sort of “sparkle” type brush…

Click on the very bottom layer of your tag, open cloud and paste to the top of tag, and again on the bottom of your tag, we are not going to use anything else for the background of the tag…

Go to the upper top most layer of your tag, make a new raster layer so you can add your credit’s and give the kit maker her credit since she does require it…
