The Golden Goddess of the Sea PTU

The Golden Goddess of the Sea

I used the wonderful artwork called Golden Goddess by Keith Garvey which you must be licensed to use. You can purchase this tube from Garv Girls which can now be found here  

I am using a beautiful scrapkit called The Golden Sea which is PTU by Crazy Creative Scraps and can be found here

Font of Choice  

Mask of Choice I used Aqua's mask CMC146 which can be found here (look for Aqua)

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.

Copy & paste paper2 from the scrapkit onto your new image and apply your mask of choice. (Click layers, load save mask, make sure fit to canvas, source luminance and hide all mask is checked then click load)
