I wrote this Tutorial and any resemblance to others, is purely coincidence. DO NOT share this on any website,group or Forums, without my Permission.
The Artwork I am using is by Greg Horn ( I do not know if he has signed with any tube store.If anyone knows his new CR, Please let me know and I will add it to this tut.) You can view his art Here
This Beautiful Scrapkit is by Cari at Black Widow Creationz it's called "Be Mine" and can be found Here
Let's Begin
Filter = Penta: Dot and Cross
Mask = Here -- Use # 0309
Drop Shadow = DS -- 2,2,50,5 black
2 to 3 tubes,  from same artist
900 X 900
1.) EL. 9 --C&P as NRL--place in center
2.) With Magic wand- click on center of Frame--Selection-modify-expand 30 -
3.) Paper 4 (or your choice)- -C&P as NRL-- place over frame-- invert 0n frame - delete on paper -- Select None-move paper below frame- DS both
4.) On paper - go to Penta- dot and cross - use default 
5.) 1 st. Tube---C&P as NRL--place under frame - erase any that over hangs in the bottom-Duplicate - blur - gaussian 6- Blend mode - Luminance Legacy- opacity-100--merge down- and add DS
6.) Close bottom layer - keep it closed through out tut.--Merge visible all Layers-- rename - frame
7.) EL 14 ---C&P as NRL---place upper right--move layer below frame--NO DS-- duplicate-- mirror -- flip
8.) EL 23--mirror --C&P as NRL--R=80 % -- sharpen-- place on left bottom-- DS -- TR
9.) EL 18 --R = 80% --sharpen---C&P as NRL-- place left Center--move below  (#8)  TR'
10.) EL 2.--C&P as NRL--Place on top right -- DS - TR
11.) EL 28 ---C&P as NRL-- Place on Bottom right -- DS -- TR -- Move layer below Frame
12.) EL 29 -- R = 80% --sharpen--C&P as NRL-- Place on top left-- DS-- TR

20.) EL 5- R-60% X 2 -- USM ---C&P as NRL--place center top -- DS - TR-- dup.- move to left center--free rotate-left 25%--dup. again= R = 75% ==mirror=move to center on right side-- TR
21.) Close out WA and 2nd tube,with background still closed-- merge visible --all layers
22.)  {A.) If you don't want to animate go ahead and open your WA and 2nd tube-merge down--resize 56% = 504 X 504 -- add a paper of choice-- and then add Mask 0309-- delete mask and then ungroup layers..
B.) Make sure all layers are open,and merge visible--all layers-
Add all copyrights and save as PNG}
Now Let's Animate
23.) Open WA and 2nd tube, C&P 3rd tube as NRL--  Place it nicely behind  2nd tube.--dup.--blur-- gaussian 6 --Blend Mode hard light -- opacity-- 90 % - MD-- add DS  -TR     
24.) WA & 2nd tube--MD - rename - both tube layers (EX; T1,T2,Tag & Bottom, you should have 4 layers (2 tube layers- tag -- bottom--) Resize all layers- 56%  = sharpen= 504 X 504 
25.) add paper as NRl make sure it is above the bottom-- add Mask 0309 - or one of your choosing-- delete mask-- ungroup layers-- now merge tag- bottom- and mask layers  =
26.) Add all Copy right info.. now close off T2, copy merged and Paste into AS as New Animation-
27.) Back in PSP -- close out T1 -- and Copy merged..(make sure when you do this, you are on the right layer )
28.) Paste after current frame-- select all- animation -- animation properties-- opaque -- white- then go to frame properties and on 1st frame-150 and 2nd frame 200 -- view and when happy save as GIF.
Thank you so much for doing my tut.

Filters : Alien Skin= Xenofex 2 - Constellation
Drop Shadow = DS = 2,2,50,5 black
1 Close-up, 1 Regular
Let's Begin
900 X 900
1.) EL 18 -- Copy and Paste = C&P as New Raster layer = NRL -place in center
2.) With Magic Wand--click in center of frame-selections-modify-expand X30 - P4 (or one of your Choosing) C&P as NRL place on frame- Invert (frame) delete (on paper) Select None = SN. - place paper layer below frame-- DS both
3.) 2 colors from tube--add a NRL above paper layer -- find a nice brush that would look good,and add a few,(if you want to rearrange them add a new layer each time you use your brush.) Do not add DS.
4.) Close - up Tube- C&P as NRL - place in center of your frame, move it below--Duplicate = Dup.--Adjust--Blur -- Motion blur-Angle = 105. --strength -- 51--Blend Mode =BM= Multiply-- Opacity = OP = 80 Merge Down = MD, BM = Luminance --
    (Legacy) -- OP = 75 add DS-- Close off bottom Layer-- Merge Visible = MV - rename =frame

18.) Close both Butterfly layers and bottom layer -- MV --all layers -- R = 56%- sharpen -- add paper of choice,then add a mask -- when your happy crop- opaque-- delete mask and then ungroup layers.
19.) If you don't want to animate then open all layers and MV..-- Add all Copy right info. --Name and save as PNG. if you want to animate keep going
20.) Do not MV all layers, you may merge all layers but Butterfly layers, when this is done, you need to grab your Freehand Selection tool - these settings-- point-to-point-- add shift -- feather =1 -- Smoothing = 0 -- anti alias checked-- go around both butterflies--after this is done -Dup. both 2X = 3 layers-each- dont forget to rename them --on so now you should have butterfly 1,b,c butterfly 2,b,c-- on bottom 1-
- go to Alien Skin Xenofex -- constellation -- small stars --star size =  1.98 -- star variation = 50
edge star density = 50 -- overall star density = 25 -- Overdrive = 50
twinkle amount =  75 -- twinkle rotation = 45 -- random seed = 1, Now go to the top butterfly and add the same filter..   (EX 2)
Close out both #1 butterflies... open the #2 a -- butterfly and add the same filter but hit the Random Seed 1x, repeat with the 2b. and then do the same for both #3 layers,once done open both #1 layers  make sure the others are closed, open animation shop -- copy merged  and paste into AS -- as new raster layer-- go back to PSP -- close the 1st butterflies,and open #2's Copy Merged and then go back to AS and paste.after current frame,repeat for #3 when this is done, go to Edit--select all--animation properties -- crop opaque--white and the frame properties to 20..-- when happy save as Gif.
thank you for checking out my tutorial.

My Supplies Here
Drop Shadow = DS - 2,2,50,5 black
Open my Supplies,and add them to your Brushes
Let's Begin
900 X 900
1.) Frame 3- Copy and Paste = C&P as New Raster Layer = NRL --place n center of canvas.
2.) With magic wand click on the center of frame-Selections- modify --expand 10
Choose a Paper -- I used paper 5--C&P as NRL place on frame.. Invert frame layer and delete on paper- crop opaque on the paper,then move below frame and add a DS to both
3.) Close the frame and bottom layer-- open your brushes -- add new raster layer to your canvas,and use any one of the aces- using anyone of the colors from the layout colors--I used the color white,and I made my cards--move it where it looks nice, I copied mine and mirrored it, make sure none of these are over hanging the paper, once happy - convert to raster layer. I Merged Down = MD, add DS
4.) Tube of choice- C&P as NRL and place under the frame layer-- erase any that is over hanging the frame..once happy--duplicate = dup. -- tube-- adjust -blur - gaussian  6, Blend Mode = Soft light - Opacity - 100% -- MD--DS--When this is all done,make sure your bottom layer is closed, and Merge Visible = MV -- all layers..-- rename : frame
5.) EL 22 - C&P as NRL -place in center of canvas-move it  to the upper right and bring layer below frame.-- DS --duplicate and mirror =place this one a little below.. move layer below frame layer--crop opaque
6.) EL 16--Resize = R -=75% sharpen- C&P as NRL-- place on right bottom -DS and tag reference = TR
7.) EL 12 -R = 90%--sharpen--C&P as NRL-- place on bottom left-- DS -- TR
8.) EL 9 -- R = 75% unsharp mask --USM --C&P as NRL- place on EL12 -- DS - TR
9.) EL 27 -- R = 75 sharpen--C&P as NRL -place on top left -- DS
10.) EL 28 - R = 80% USM--C&P as NRL -place on right side top-- mirror -DS--TR
11.) EL 1 -- R=80% - sharpen--C&P as NRL--place on right side frame-- DS
12.) EL 2 -- C&P as NRL -- place this one in the middle and bottom of frame -- DS-- TR
13.) EL 3 --R = 89% X 2 -- USM--C&P as NRL--place on left center-- DS -- TR
14.) EL 10 -- R = 60% X 2 -- USM --C&P as NRL--place on upper --DS -- TR
15.) EL 11 --R = 60% X 2 -USM --C&P as NRL--place this one on center of frame and move it below #EL 10 -- DS -- TR
16.) EL 31 -- R = 50 % & 80 USM--C&P as NRL-- place bottom center--DS--dup.--R = 80% sharpen -- free rotate=right 80-- TR
17.) EL 40 --C&P as NRL--Place layer below frame-move to upper left side- dup. -mirror --flip--move to bottom right side--MD--No DS -- TR
18.) EL 35 --R -- 50% -- USM --C&P as NRL--Place on top left --DS --dup. -- R = 80% sharpen -- free rotate --left 70% -- I placed a few around..--TR
19.) EL 38 -- R = 70% -- USM --C&P as NRL-- place on top -- dup. -- R - 70% -- sharpen -- free rotate -- right 70-- dup. -- mirror - I added 1 more.  
20.) MV.- all layers -- keep bottom closed -- R = 56% sharpen-- add paper above bottom layer- I used P2-- add mask of choice--delet mask--ungroup layers--crop opaque-- when done, open bottom layer and MV -- all layers-- sharpen -- now add ALL Copy Right info..your name.. and save as PNG.
I hope you had fun,and I would really like to see if you used my tutorial.

My Supplies Here  
Drop Shadow = DS = 2,2,50,5 black
Let's Begin
open my supplies and put them where you can use, they are examples of this tut.
900 X 900
2 Colors from tube-One Dark and one light.
1.) Grab your Ellipse tool - Circle-Create as Vector checked- Line style-Diamond-width-20-on materials palatte-background- dark color- draw out a good size circle -( EX.1)
Ex.1b.- align-center in canvas- (EX.2)--convert to raster layer -Duplicate = dup.
2.) With magic wand - starting at top- click inside each other Diamond- I did mine left and then right till I got to the bottom,and there is 2 at the bottom,as in (EX.3)
3.) With light color- add New Raster Layer-color all the ones who have "ants" around them as in (EX. 4)--. when you are done delete the duplicate- you should now have 3 layers, rename them - I did mine dark cir. and light cir.
4.) Working on top layer- grab Ellipse tool again- circle- create as Vector checked--line solid--Width 10--Gradient- gold-angle/0 - repeats-/0-invert unchecked -(EX. 5 & 6) back ground - Gold- F/0--draw out a circle as all most as large  as the diamonds (EX.7 ) center in canvas- convert to raster layer--now as an Inner Bevel-color -AD8F3B -(EX. 8)
5.) Paper 9 ( or 1 of choice) --with magic wand-click inside the circle-- copy and paste = C&P as New Raster layer = NRL- invert on frame -- delete on paper--select none- crop opaque-900X900--DS--place paper below frame.
6.) Tube - C&P as NRL -place in center - dup.- blur- gaussian 6 -- blend mode = multiply - opacity - 70 - merge down-= MD-- DS -- Tag reference  = TR
7.) EL 19 - C&P as NRL - place on the upper right--DS

9.) EL. 28 - C&P as NRL -place on paper layer--move layer below tube - DS - TR
10.) EL.3-C&P as NRL -place on left side center--DS--Dup.-Mirror and move the layer below frame layer remove any that is over hanging--TR
11.) EL.34--C&P as NRL -- mirror- move to bottom of frame-- place layer above bottom layer--DS--Dip. --Flip--MD--
12.) EL. 35 --R = 80% X2-C&P as NRL - move to lower left bottom -- DS -- mirror -- TR
13.) EL. 9 --C&P as NRL-- place bottom right--DS
14.) EL. 8--C&P as NRL--place center right -- DS -- TR
15.) EL. 7--   C&P as NRL--DS -- move layer right above heart layer -- Dup.-- mirror - flip-- MD
16.) EL . 29 -- R-= 60% -- USM --C&P as NRL -place on  bottom left layer- DS--move layer below-- layer 35
17.) EL 25 - R = 60 USM - C&P as NRL -- place on left side-- DS -- TR
  Dup. R = 80% -- place a few of each flowers around--
18.) EL 11--R = 50%-USM -C&P as NRL- place on paper- move behind tube-- mirror -- DE -- RT
19.) EL 12- R - 50 % X 80% X 2 -- USM -- C&P as NRL--place on right side -- DS. --TR.
20.) EL. 16- R.--60% -- USM --C&P as NRL-- place it  on paper layer - move below frame . DS & TR
21.) EL 14-- R= 60% X2 USM =C&P as NRL -- place on upper left side--place under frame --DS--TR--I added 3 flowers
22.) EL. 30- C&P as NRL- place center on tag (DS)
23.) EL 31.- C&P as NRL -- place on bottom of tag (TR) (DS)
24.) Close all layers from peach diamond down--Merge Visible = MV -- rename top
25.) Close out top-peach diamond--brown diamond--MV --rename bottom-
26.) resize all layers 56-= 504 X 504 --add paper of choice,and then mask of choice--delete mask, ungroup layers--Md to bottom--crop opaque-- ADD ALL Copy RIght info  and name,if you dont want to animate go ahead and save as Png.. 
                                            Let's animate
open Animation shop
1.) Close peach layer-Copy merged + CPM and Paste into animation shop as new animation.
2.) Close this layer and open pink one, CPM -- paste into selection--repeat till you have all layers in AS
when done, view then edit all --animation properties-- white --opaque.. then frame properties -- set at 20
thank you for trying out my Tutorials
