Program used: PSP 9

Supplies: kit Retro Chick by Lise-Lotte Sunesen. The kit can be bought at Digital Scrap World.

Plus a tube of your choice. I use “Groovy” by Ismael Rac. You can buy the tube at his store.

Outside filters: simple/4 way average and Zero Porcelain. Optional: a shadow plugin.

* Open a 600*450 px. canvas. Save.

* Open paper 07. Resize to 600*600 px. (Smartsize). C/p onto the canvas. Close the original paper without saving it.

* On raster 1 (which is an empty layer) select all/modify/contract 10 px/Invert.

* Keep selected. Go to your paper layer and promote selection. Deselect.

* Apply the filter simple/4 way average to the promoted selection.

* C/p the following elements onto your canvas:

album 3,

cassettetape 1,

earphone1,

frame1,

radio2 and

ribbonflower 3_DS (/which means it has already been applied with a perspective shadow)

* Resize all elements to 18%.

* C/p the tube to your canvas. Duplicate. Mirror one of them and resize that one with 70%. The other tube (100%) needs to be duplicated twice.

* Place the three “100%”  tubes behind the frame like this:

* With the Magic Wand select inside one of the frame “holes”. Modify/Expand 1 px/Invert. Go to the tube, that fits into that “hole” and press delete. Repeat with the other two “holes” and tubes.

* Apply plugin Zero Porcelain default settings to the three tubes in the frame.

* Rotate the cassette tape 4 degrees to the right.

* Apply a shadow to all elements.

* Add the appropriate copyright info.

* Add your text/name. I used font sf Dedi size 12. Convert the text to a raster layer. Rotate 4 degrees to the right. Place above the cassette tape.

FINITO!

Supplies: Seamless Pattern Creator 1 (PSP Scripts). The pack can be bought at Digital Scrap World.

A colorswatch and a texture. Or you can use mine (right click to save to your own computer):

* Install the scripts. How to do it, is described in the pack.

* Open the colorswatch and your texture pattern in your PSP.

* Chose two colors from the swatch with your color picker. I use color 5 as my background and color 8 as my foreground color.

* Run script “lhsPATTERN_TILE_vol1_01″. You now have a seamless tile that looks like this:

* Open a new 3600*3600 px. canvas.

* Chose a color from the swatch. I use #7. Pick the color with your color picker and flood fill the canvas.

* Add a new layer.

* In your color/material palette chose the pattern option. Find your new tile and set the scale to 25:

* Flood fill the empty layer with this pattern.

* Add a new layer. Again go to the color/material palette and find lhsPATTERN_tut_SeamlessPatternCreator1. Set the scale to 100.

* Flood fill the new layer in your canvas with this pattern.

* Change the blend mode of this layer to overlay and lower the opacity to approx. 65.

Your paper is now finished! Remember to save!

I have made three other examples of how to use the Seamless Pattern Creator 1. I have left out the text here and is just showing the settings with pictures.

EXAMPLE # 1:

I combine two of the scripts in this one. That can be done, when the tiles has the same size (/in this case 600*600 px) and the scale and angle is set to the same.

Background color in the paper: #5

Result:

EXAMPLE # 2:

Paper background color: # 6

Result:

EXAMPLE # 3:

Paper background color # 1.

Result:

Flood fill with a darker color. Go to Selections/Modify/Contract 1 px. Press delete. Deselect.

I used a green and a brown color.

I use one of Susanne Woolcott’s beautiful artworks (“Spider Spider”).

* Add copyright information.

Convert to the vector to a raster. Drag the layer to be the top layer in your canvas.
