Call 911 PTU

Call 911
I used the wonderful artwork by Ted Hammond which you must be licensed to use. You can purchase his tubes from CDO which can now be found here  
I am using a scrapkit called Firefighter which is PTU by Gimptastic Scraps and can be found at The PSP Project here  
Font of Choice  
Mask of Choice  WSL84 (Weescotlass) 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.
