**TO ANIMATE**

Open the Animation Window.
Set the time for .2

except your word art.

Go to your Layer Palette.
Move the train to the right side of your tag
so only the front of it barely shows.

Go back to your animation window.
Click the square button, next to the trash can,
in the animation window.
This will duplicate the first animation frame
making frame 2.

With frame 2 highlighted in the animation window,
Go over to your Layer Palette.
Now move your train
so the flower on the back end of it
is even with the right end of the bench.

Highlight frame 1 in the animation window.
See those little squares in the animation tool bar
just below the frames?
They're going in a diagonal downward slope.
That's your Tween button.
Click it.
A window will pop up.
Use these settings:

Highlight frame 11 in the animation window.
Now go to your Layer Palette and
unhide your word art.
Move your word art to the right of your tag.
You only want the first letter to show on your tag.
You should see the whole train and
that first letter of your word art on your tag.

Go back to the animation window.
Duplicate frame 11.

Highlight frame 12.
Go to your Layer Palette.
Move the train over to the left of your tag.
Only a very small part of the back end of your train
should be seen.
Now move your word art to the center of your tag.

Highlight frame 11 in the animation window.
Click that Tween button.
Use the same settings as before.
You will now have 21 frames.

Duplicate frame 21.
In frame 22,
set the time to .5
Hide the train layer in the Layer Palette.

Click Play in the animation window.

If you like what you see...

Save as PSD. Then Save for Web & Devises.

YOU'RE DONE!

♥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.♥
