Rock This
- For this tutorial I have used the TIFFANY kit from Gemini Creationz found HERE
- Artwork is PTU by Keith Garvey found HERE
- VIX masks 276 and 383 FTU found HERE
- Alien Skin Eye Candy 5 trial found HERE
- Animation Shop found HERE
- First pick the two papers you would like to use as your masks and apply one of your masks to each one.
- Next open your background
- Add the Rockstar Mask by Copying Merged and pasting as a new layer.(Drop Shadow)
- Add your tube of choice so it will be inside your frame (Drop Shadow)
- I added the chandelier behind my tube for effect. (Drop Shadow)
- Add any other elements you may want to use on the inside of the picture, I have added to the bracelet and her belly button =)
- RE-SIZE 50% this is now your base layer.
- Open the frame of choice and place your base layer inside the frame. You may have to re-size both the frame and the base to make them look the way you would like for them to. You do this with the little squares that show up when you are on your PICK TOOL
- Add embellishments around the frame as you would like (Drop Shadow)
- Add copyrights and any wording you would like
- MERGE ALL
- Now take your 'ROCK THIS' Layer and re-size it to about 35% and copy merged and paste onto your base layer. You will have to re-size this more I am sure, and place it where you would like it.
- Plugins>Alien Skin Eye Candy>Gradient Glow
- I used the Dark Aura with the following settings after changing the purple to a hot pink shade.
- COPY MERGED
- Open Animation Shop
- Paste as a new animation
- Back to PSP
- Apply Glow again with the same settings,
- Copy Merged
- In Animation Shop Paste after current frame
