Girly bug


This tutorial was written by Pints any resemblence to any other tutorial is purely coincidental, completely my own work.

 

I used PSPX1 but it should work with other versions.

 

Supplies needed:-

 

Scrapkit by Amy which is a freebie and can be found here:-

Tube of choice

I used the Gorjuss work from Suzanne Woolcott which can be found

Font of choice I used Abuse which is free and can be found here:-

Becky mask 19 which is here.

 

Lets go!

 

Open new canvas 600 x 600 and flood fill white.

 

Open girlybugframe5, resize and paste onto your canvas as new layer.

 

Open girlybug3, resize and paste onto your canvas as new layer.

Move this over to the right ontop of your frame.

Duplicate, image mirror.

Duplicate again and rotate right 90 degrees and place at bottom of frame.

Duplicate, image flip and then mirror.

 

Lower the opacity of the bug and erase parts to make it look like it is woven around the frame, see my tag for reference. Higher the opacity back to normal.

 

Repeat this step with the other 3 bugs.

X out white layer and merge visable.

Unhide white layer.

 

Choose one of the papers I choose girlybugpaper6, resize and paste as new layer underneath your frame layer.

 

With your magic wand click inside frame, selections, modify, expand by 2, invert

Go to paper layer and hit delete.

 

Add any more embellishments that your would like.

 

Add your tube.

 

Add new layer and flood fill with paper that you used for frame, put this above your white layer.

 

Layers, new mask layer, Source luminance clicked and hit ok.

Delete mask layer, merge all in group.

 

Add your name.

 

Add copyright.

 

Add drop shadows to all your elements etc, I find it easier to do this at the end.

Vertical & Horizontal 1

Opacity 50 & Blur 50, colour black.

 

Merge all visible.

 

Resize by 80% and your done.

 

Hope you enjoyed!
