***

Set your foreground on red.

I used  #ff0000.

Background #b90103.

Save the cmv_rose_satin.jpg in the

PSP Patterns folder.

 

 

1. Open a new transparent image, size 540x375

and fill with the pattern. Minimize for now.

 

2. Open the lady tube.

Activate the Selection tool and choose the

Freehand Selection.

Change the "Selection Type" to

"Smart Edge"

 

Begin to click with your mouse around the hand, selecting the

grey garment. Make very sure you don't include the hand.

Keep on clicking until you have selected the

entire garment.

When you're finished, double click to

get the ants marching.

If you have made a mistake, you just press "Esc"

on your keyboard and start over.

 

3. With the marching ants still around the garment,

add a new raster layer and fill with the foreground color.

Reduce the opacity of this layer to 50%.

Adjust -- Sharpness -- Sharpen twice.

Keep selected.

Merge All visible layers.

Keep selected.

Selections -- Invert.

Adjust -- Hue/Saturation -- Colorize

Hue = 18, Saturation = 99.

Selections -- Select None.

This is what we have now:

 

4. Add a new layer and fill with the pattern.

Drag the bottom layer in your Layers Palette to the top

so that you can see the lady again.

 

5. Merge All Layers.

 

6. Add a 7 px border in your background color.

Add a 7 pixel border in black.

 

7. Resize the image to 300 px in height.

8. Duplicate the image with Shift D on your keyboard.

 

9. Open your minimized bigger background canvas.

Copy and paste the framed lady image onto the canvas.

Reduce the opacity of this image to 8%.

 

10. Duplicate this layer another 4 times

so that you have 5 copies in total.

Shift them randomly around the canvas.

Merge layers visible.

 

 

11. Paste the lady image onto the canvas again

and drag it slightly to the left and up.

 

12. Open the legs tube.

Resize to 350 px in height.

Image -- Mirror.

Edit -- Copy.

Edit -- Paste onto the canvas as new layer.

Position it to the right of the framed lady.

Reduce the opacity of this layer to 60%

 

13. Open the shoe-tube.

Lock the watermark layer.

Copy the image layer.

Paste onto the bigger canvas.

Shift it to the lower left bottom.

Merge all layers.

 

14. Add a 5 pixel border in your background color.

Add a 7 pixel border in black.

 

15. Lock your foreground color.

Activate your Font tool and type your text.

I used Algerian, size 26.

 

16. Add a drop shadow.

 

Your tag is finished :)

 

If you want to use the script you

will need to make another background tile

as well as a gold bar.

I used the pattern as background.
