Amour de Paris PTU

Amour de Paris
I used the wonderful artwork called Wishful Thinking by Jasmine Becket-Griffith which you must be licensed to use. You can purchase this tube from CDO which can be found here  
I am using a beautiful scrapkit called Amour de Paris which is PTU by Gimptastic Scraps and can be found at CDO here  
Font of Choice  
Mask of Choice I used DBV Mask111 which can be found here
Effects used candy eye4000 gladient glow
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.
