Happy Autumn

Supplies Needed

1 tube of choice – I used the adorable artwork of Sally Gilroy which can be purchased from CDO here.  Better hurry, she’s retiring at the end of the month and has a sale going on right now!

Font of choice – I used Atelier du Machiniste here

“Autumn Sunset” is now a FTU tagger size scrap kit created by me, HorsePlay’s Pasture Designs and can be downloaded from my blog here. 
  
This tutorial was written assuming you have working knowledge of PSP. 

~~ Let’s get started ~~

Open up a 700 x 700 canvas.
Flood fill white.

Copy and paste the following elements on your canvas –
Don’t worry about placement yet:
EL 49:  Resize 70%
EL 31:  Resize 50%/Free rotate Left 90 degrees/Duplicate
EL 28:  Resize 60%/Make your Pick Tool active and pull the top down so that the frame takes on a more square shape.

Move the wheel into position at the left side of your canvas – see my tag for reference.

Move the frame (that you squared up) so that it’s centered over the wheel.

Move both green frames into position just behind the square frame – see my tag for reference.

To each of the green frames:
Highlight the frame layer.
Click inside of the frame with your Magic Wand.
Selections/Modify/Expand by 2.
New Raster layer below the frame.
Copy and paste Paper 9 Into Selection.
Image/Flip
Deselect.

To the Square frame:
Highlight the frame layer.
Click inside of it with your Magic Wand.
Selections/Modify/Expand by 2.
New Raster layer below the frame.
Copy and paste Paper 9 Into Selection.
Copy and paste EL 6 as a new layer above the paper.
Move into position – see my tag for reference.
Selections/Invert
Tap the delete key.
Copy and paste EL 20 as a new layer just below the frame.
Resize 70%/Duplicate
Move both into position across the bottom of the frame – see my tag for reference.
Highlight each frame layer and tap the delete key.
Deselect.

Copy and paste your tube as a new layer.
See my tag for placement.

Add your elements.  I used:
EL 63:  Resize 90%
EL 17: Duplicate/Free rotate Left 30 degrees
EL 17 again:  Resize 90%/Mirror
EL 58
EL 59
EL 40:  Resize 80%
EL 13:  Resize 50%
El 80: Duplicate 2x’s for a total of 3
EL 78: Duplicate 3 x’s for a total of 4

Add your copyrights.

Add your name.
Color Pallet:
Foreground: #600c07
Background: #db9b2c
Stroke set on 1.0

Type your name.
Convert to Raster layer.
Give it a slight Inner Bevel:

Make your Freehand Selection Tool active and section off the bottom half of your name – make the marching ant line a little wavy.
Ctrl + H – to open up the Feather Selection Box:
Number of Pixels:
20
OK
Shift + B – to open up the Brightness/Contrast Box:

OK
Deselect.

I’d love to see your results.
Email me!
Hugs,
Bev
