Amethyst Dreams PTU

Amethyst Dreams
I used the wonderful artwork called Lilum by Enamorte which you must be licensed to use. You can purchase his tubes from CDO which can be found here
I am using a scrapkit called Birthstone Series  Amethyst which is PTU by Gimptastic Scraps and can be found at The PSP Project here
Font of Choice  
Mask of Choice  I used WSL297 (Weescotslass)
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.
