For this tutorial you will
need: Jasc or Corel Paint Shop Pro. I've done this tutorial in PSP 9 and PSP XI. I believe it can be done in most versions. You may have to look around for the commands but it's likely they are there.  Filters and materials needed No filters are needed Supplies in zip file here. http://www.ellies-treasures.com/files/tuts/scrap-rosalinde-supplies-psp.zip Supplies in psd format here if the psp tubes don't work for you. http://www.ellies-treasures.com/files/tuts/scrap-rosalinde-supplies-psd.zip ************* Credits I've included the woman's face tube that Violette used as well as the jpg I used in mine. Mine is from Ana Rasha and used with permission. The woman's face tube was made by Suzy Sgai and shared here with her permission to Violette. The scrap kit is supplied with permission to Violette by Gwyneth of Gwyn Grafica |
| Preparation Open your tubes, duplicate them (shift-D) and close the originals. I always open all of my tubes and close as I use them The tube used more than once here is the scrap kit. You can close the other one after using. I also keep a copy of the tag example open to refer to. Save mine from the top of the page and keep it open if you would like to do this. |

Resizing To keep the striped paper from going funny when resizing, resize at 85%, then repeat till it gets near the size you want. At that point you can resize normally. If you resize, use the unsharp mask or Brightness/Contrast to sharpen it a bit. Adjust>Sharpness>Unsharp mask at Radius 1, strength 60, clipping 4. or Adjust>Brightness and Contrast set to Brightness of 5-contrast of 15. |
