Because we're using 5 different kits,
I will refer to the elements like this:

Resize to 75%
Place in upper left corner of canvas.
Duplicate this layer.

Use my tag as a guide for placement.
Duplicate this layer twice.
Hide layers 2 & 3 for now.

Erase all of the tube layer that goes outside
the inside part of sb-frame1.

Highlight the second CU layer.
Place this to the right inside of sb-frame1.
This will overlap the CU tube layer
you just did.

sb-facebook icon

Place a drop shadow on all layers except:

Make a new layer.
Type your name on the taggie.

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 PSD, then PNG.
YOU'RE DONE!!

I hope you had fun with this tut
and that you can use this technique
in other taggies you create!
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! ♥
