She Still Dances PTU

She Still Dances

I used the wonderful artwork called Ballerina by Enamorte which you must be licensed to use. You can purchase this tube from CDO  which can now be found here  

I am using a awesome scrapkit called Gothic Ballet which is PTU by Gimptastic Scraps and can be found at The PSP Project here  

Font of Choice  

Mask of Choice I used GemsMasks 192  which can be found 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 800 pixels with a transparent background.  You can resize later to meet your needs. I resize at the end by 75% to get a 600 X 600 tag
