Graveyard Retreat PTU


Graveyard Retreat

I used the wonderful artwork of Amy Matthews called which you must be licensed to use. You can purchase her tubes from CDO which can now be found here
I am using a scrapkit called 13 Spooky Street which is PTU  
and can be purchased at PinkParadox Productions here.
Font of Choice  
Mask of Choice I used weescotslass creations wsl302  these masks are Here 
The tut was written in Paint Shop Pro X4 but should work in others.

Note When I resize I use these settings: (make sure that pixel dimensions is on percent and in advanced setting it is smart size lock aspect ratio is checked and resize all layers is unchecked) also please save often and for placement on the tag you can always refer to the example tag if that helps.

Let's get started!!


Open a new image 800 X 950 pixels with a transparent background.  You can resize later to meet your needs.
Copy & paste paper1 from the scrapkit onto your new image and apply your mask
