Tut: April Showers






















April Showers

This tutorial was written by me on April 16, 2010 using PSP 9.  All my tutorials assume you have some working knowledge of PSP and/or Animation Shop.

Supplies

Tube of choice - I'm using the adorable work of Suzanne Woolcott.  Do not use without a license.  You can purchase her tubes and license here at Gorjuss Art.

Scrap kit - I'm using Shades of Gina's portion of Underground Scraps' "Thunderstorm" collab.  You can purchase this kit here.

Mask & Font of choice

This is an easy simple tut so let's get started!  Open your mask & tube in PSP and minimize.

1.  Open a new image 700 x 700 white - open Cloud 2 and using your dropper tool choose a darker color from the element - new raster layer - floodfill with color - layers - new mask layer - from image - find your mask - ok - merge group - copy/paste Cloud 2 as new layer - position - duplicate - image - mirror - position - dropshadow both cloud layers

2.  Copy/paste Fence 2 as new layer - resize - position towards the bottom of tag - dropshadow

3.  Using your picutre tube tool - find the lawn tube in your dropdown box ( yours maybe different) - new raster layer - apply tube - duplicate as many times as needed to give the appearance of grass in front of fence ( move fence up if needed - see my tag for reference) - when happy close out all layers, but your grass tube layers - merge visible - open all layers up again

4.  Copy/paste your tube as new layer - resize - position - dropshadow - on cloud layers - move above the fence layer

5.  Close out background layer - crop/resize tag to your preference - add copyright/license information & name - save as .png.

That's it!!  Easy Peasy!!  Thank you for trying my tutorial!!!
