Ready for Spring FTU

Ready for Spring

I used the wonderful artwork called Rapunzel by Caron Vinson 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 Summer Splash by Scraps by Pam which is FTU and can be found here

Mask of Choice 

Font of Choice

Xero Soft Vignette

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.
