Use my tag as a guide for placement of elements.
I used these elements:
Heart4, resize to 50%
Flower1
Butterfly3, resize to 35%
Butterfly2, resize to 45%
Gluttony6
Gluttony2
Gluttony10

Open your regular sized tube.
Place to your liking.
Open Gluttony1
Resize to 50%.
Place this on top of your tube's hand.
To make it look like she's holding the cupcake,
Erase the cupcake where your tube's fingers are.

Open Frame3.
Erase the frame where your tube's
head and arms are.

These are the other elements I used:
Bow3, resize to 50%
Gluttony9
Gluttony3, resize to 80%
Gluttony4, resize to 75%
Heart1, resize to 35%
Flower3
CandyInHeart, resize to 80%
Butterfly1, resize to 35%

Place a drop shadow on all layers except:
Gluttony1
Paper layers
Close Up tube layers
WordArt layers
Resize your siggy to your liking.

Make a new layer.
Type your name.
I used color ffff80.
I also used:
Bevel & Emboss
Stroke, Outside, 3, Black
Drop Shadow

*BEVEL & EMBOSS*


MOST IMPORTANT!!
You must now do this:
Put the artist's name, website, and your license number
of the tube you used on the siggy!!
Add your name (ie: Designed by Your Name) behind this info.
Make sure this info is legible and clearly seen.

Save as PNG.
YOU'RE DONE!!
(If you want to maintain your layers
Always Save as PSD first.
Then you can save it as a PNG.
When doing both these steps
It is important to change the title of the tag.
Example:
When I Save as PSD,
I always name the tag what I want.
Then, when saving as a PNG,
I add the number 1 behind the name of the tag.
Like this:
It's Under-Rated, Save as PSD
It's Under-Rated1, Save as PNG
Otherwise, your PNG will overwrite your PSD
Merging your tag into one layer only.)

I hope you had fun with this tut!
HUGS!

♥Tribute to Rieka♥

To honor Rieka and all she has blessed me with, I will be leaving all my tuts that I have written with her kits on my blog. They are not coming down. Even though her kits are no longer available, the tuts I wrote using them are my tribute to her. Hopefully, they will inspire you the way Rieka inspired me. Love You, Rieka! You'll be forever in my heart.♥

About Me

Savage
Hi Ya'll! I'm Savage and I'd like to welcome you to Redneck Tuts. These are not your ordinary tuts, as they are geared toward those of us that don't have "working knowledge" of Photoshop or PSP. My tuts are all done in PS. They are designed to show you different techniques that you may not know. I hope you learn something that you can use in your creations in the future. Please, just have fun and put your own spin on these tuts. Be original and shine! Love Ya! ♥
