Sea Side Fun

PTU CT/Tutorial for Trinita Lola using the beautiful SeaStar. She has several different colored layers for you to use.
I used the awesome kit from Jackie's Jewels called Rainbow Beach.



The creation of this tutorial is my own any resemblance to any other tutorial is strictly a coincidence.
Do not copy this tutorial or claim it as your own. If you would like to share it, please share the link to blog ONLY.
This tutorial was written using Adobe Photoshop CS5 and is for those with a working knowledge of Photoshop. This tutorial can be adapted for anyone with a working knowledge of PSP.

Before we start, I would like to remind you to save frequently. This is in case your program closes on you as mine is known to do. J  I save as a .psd file. This keeps your elements in layers instead of merging everything the way a .png file does. I also do not say copy and paste your element onto your canvas. In Photoshop, it is possible to drag and drop. But if you are more comfortable copying and pasting, then by all means do what is easier for you. I use a white background while I’m making my tag but I delete it when I am finished.

Supplies needed:

I’m using the adorable tube SeaStar from Trinita. You can get it here.

I used Rainbow Beach scrap kit by Jackie’s Jewels. You can find where to buy it from her blog here or at Pimpin’ PSPers Warehouse here.

JJS39: Place on the middle of your canvas almost to the middle of the page. Duplicate and place slightly lower to the left of your canvas. Part of the element is off the left side of the page. Duplicate again placing that copy to your liking but slightly off the canvas on the right. Again, duplicate. Take this copy and place it in the lower left of your canvas to your liking, again, I have some of the element off the canvas. Duplicate one last time bringing it to the right side of your canvas. Once again, mine is off the canvas.
