Drop Shadow = DS= 2,2,50,5 black

Filters : MuRa's  Meister

You'll need 2 tubes - 1 face & 1 Full

Lets begin

900 X 900

1.) Candy Corn 3 - Resize = R - 56%X2-- Unsharp mask = USM- Copy and Paste = C&P - as New Raster Layer = NRL

Place in center-- use Mura meister - Encircle- Tile mode - behind - 12,50,50,0,100,-25,100,/0/100,0,0,/30/,0, ok--EX1

2.) With Magic Wand -Click in center of circle- Selection- Modify- Expand =5 - Paper 8- C&P as NRL - place in center- invert on frame layer and delete on paper-- Crop opaque- now move below frame - DS on both - Tag Reference = TR

3.) Large tube - C&P as NRL - place on top of paper and below frame - Duplicate = Dup. - Blur - Gaussian 6 - Blend Mode = BM -Multiply- opacity = 90% - when done Merge Down = MD - BS & TR

4.) Dup. Frame -With Raster Deform tool - on 2nd Candy frame - move it like EX 2- or if you can get your free rotate buttons work (mine was holding picked signs) Just remember you have to intersect the C-Layers --EX2

5.) Cat & Pumpkin -C&P as NRL -R=75% USM -place on bottom right side - DS & TR

6.) Cauldron - R  75% - USM -C&P as NRL -  Place on bottom left- DS - & TR
7.) Cupcake - R = 75% X3 - USM -C&P as NRL - place it on bottom next to kitty - DS & TR

8.) 2nd Tube- -C&P as NRL - Place on bottom left  -DS - move below cauldron layer-- TR - Dup.= R =75% - sharpen - now dup. this one - then blur -the same as before on #3 - MD-place this one on top right- DS- TR

9.) Ghost - R = 80 % - sharpen=-C&P as NRL - mirror- place on top left side -- DS & TR

10.) Jack - mirror--C&P as NRL -  place on upper right side - DS - TR

11.) Pumpkin bucket with candy -R = 60% X 2 --USM-C&P as NRL - place on bottom left - next to cauldron -- mirror--DS &TR

12.) Roses with Ribbon - -C&P as NRL - place on center left side-- DS & TR - move layer below 2 tube layer --

13.) Skull cherry - R = 60% X 2- USM---C&P as NRL - place on bottom right side -- DS - Dup. - 80 % place this below the 1st one.---Dup.- R = 80% - sharpen -mirror - place this one below the 2nd one- once they are done and you like your tag - then Merge Down = MD --  TR

14.) Vamptini- R =50% USM--C&P as NRL - place on center bottom - DS & TR

15.) Spooky Tree - R = 50% USM -C&P as NRL - place on top right side--DS &TR - move layer below the  candy cane layer.

16.) Tombstone-R=50% USM --C&P as NRL - place on top left -- DS -Dup. - mirror place this one - move layer below the tree layer -- TR

17.) Paper of choice - I did 3 papers - #1,#3,#7. -C&P as NRL - Add a nice mask to all 3 layers--delete mask and ungroup layers - do this for all mask layers - crop opaque if needed, to clean around the edges

18.) BOO WA- R = 50% USM -C&P as NRL - place on bottom of frame -- DS & TR

19.) Black Cat - R - 50% USM -C&P as NRL - place on bottom left side - DS & TR

20.) Bat - R= 50% USM -C&P as NRL - Place on center right side - DS & TR

21.) Close   All Candy

cane layers and above- on the rest below CC layers == Merge Visible = MV. - and rename Bottom - close this out

22.) Now open all layers above the candy corn - and MV- rename top- open candy cane 1 and top and bottom layers--

23.) R - 56% all layers = Sharpen on all layers

24.) ADD ALL Copy Right info== If you don't want to animate just open all layers- delete the 2nd candy cane - or you can leave it.. It will look like one of the other tags..Now add Name and save a PNG..

25.) To animate just go ahead and copy Merged - and place this one in animation shop as new animation

26.) Close CC 1 - and open CC2  - copy merged and paste after current frame

27.) In Animation shop== edit - animation properties - opaque

28.) Now go to Frame properties and change it if you think its to fast, just bring it up a little -- I left mine at 10

After viewing it and you like it, save as GIF.

I hope you injoyed this little tut.

20.) EL. 5 - R = 50% & 80 % USM- C&P as NRL -place on bottom right near the ruler - DS & TR
21.) EL.40 - 50 % USM - - C&P as NRL -place on bottom left DS  & TR
22.) EL. 15 - R = 50% USM- C&P as NRL - place on lower left side -- DS & TR- place it over the WA.
23.) EL. 27 -R 50% USM- C&P as NRL -place on bottom left side, move it below the shoe layer- DS & TR
24.) EL. 28 - R = 50% X2- USM - C&P as NRL -mirror - place on bottom right side - DS & TR
25.) EL. 34 - R = 50% USM- C&P as NRL -place on right side - DS & TR - place below WA.
26.)  EL. 9-- C&P as NRL - place on bottom center - bring layer to right below the laptop layer.. DS & TR
27.) Now if you are not going to animate- MV all layers- R= 56% - sharpen-- 
28.) Paper 4 and 8- I used 2 different mask - Vix 15 &19- delete mask on both and ungroup layers for both. - remember to crop opaque - 504 X 504
29) Add - all Copy rights and Name- save as PNG
30.) Let's animate- first off lets R = 56% sharpen and then Add All Copy right info, and name
Now we are going to MV layers -
A.) Close out - MD both WA and Lockers -rename lockers-
B.) Skate layer and Phone layer- Merge Down - Close Locker- phone and phone #
C.) You should now have 3 layers - EX 3
We are going to add the phone # in PSP and take it over to Animation shop - you can do this in Animation shop if you prefer, or do it the old fashion way .lol
D.) open text # - move it as close to the right side, you should have 940 (area code ) copy #,close this one and with freehand selection tool - point to point - add shift - feather-0 - smoothing - 0- anti alias checked
E.)  open duplicate - move the # a little - dup. close out the dup layer. use the freehand selection tool to erase the part not needed -  close this one
F.) Repeat Layer E - until you have the # going across the phone - I  had 14 frames in AS-- when your happy with your "tag" you can either open all layers and save it as "AS" and then bring it over to AS - and follow the instructions. I did mine the old fashion way, by opening each layer and Copy  Merged and paste in AS -
G.) when done Edit All frames - Animation properties - and opaque- and then go to Frame Properties - and change it to 30
View your animation, and when you get the way you wish.. save as GIF
Glad you checked out my Tutorial

EX 5 - I did each building different, make sure you add a Nrl for each building's color --I ended with nine- close them out
2.) start Duplicating the sun and move it down, layer by layer, continue to dup. the sun and moving them down.
when done, work on moving the night layer up, so as the sun goes down the night comes up with the lighted buildings.
3.) when happy and if you caught up by now. I want you to close out each section-- Copy merged layers and working by layers- place 1st layer in animation shop as New animations. all other layers will be paste after the current layer-- when you are done, 10 frames -- edit = select all - copy and clicking on #10- add these after the current frame then reverse frames- you should have anywhere from 19 - 20
4.) now click on #7 - open "animation notes " make active layers 7-19 - propagate paste - and paste into  selected frame- reverse the animation
5.) Now clicking on frame 1 - select all - animation - animation properties - opaque- white and then click  on #1 - change frame properties
