Made my own wordart which you can snag right here

or just type what you would like on your own.

For the main text, I used FrenchScript MT.

Open all your tubes, etc you will be using in PSP.

Ok, let's get going!

1. Open a new image 500x500

2. Flood fill with white

3. Open BVS Journal01 - resize 90% - paste as new layer

4. Open Chocolate_Wordart_dw from zip or type whatever you would like on journal01.

5. If you type text, use ds of 1,-1, 51, 5 black.

6. Open flower03, resize 40%. Sharpen. Duplicate, Move slightly left and down, move below first flower layer. Highlight top flower layer, merge down. apply same ds as for text.

7. Open Lovely Chocolate06, resize 50%, move to lower left corner. To add the text, use French Script size 45. Center in heart. Convert to raster. Selections, select all, float, de-float, add new layer, effects cut out 10, 10, 60, 50, black. add new layer, effects, drop shadow 1, 1, 100, 1 color#a9a265. Select none.Delet original text layer. Highlight top layer, merge down, merge down again. Ds as before.

8. Open Chocolate Bow03, copy, paste as new layer, resize 50%, move to upper right on journal. Rotate slightly if desired. Apply ds 1, 1, 51, 5

If you are going to resize your tag you can do so now or after next steps. I have done it both ways and it works fine either way. Be sure to add your text, watermark, © and any other elements you may wish to add.

If you do not wish to animate your tag, do not duplicate and add noise to layers in the following sections.

9. Open BVS Chocolate Doodle03, copy, paste as new layer below journal layer

Duplicate, image mirror, image flip, merge down. duplicate 3 times. Close off bottom 2 of these, adjust, add/remove noise, add noise, Random, 30, Monochrome unchecked. Open and highlight next layer down, add noise of 45, repeat on last layer add noise at 60.

10. Open Chocolate leave 02, copy, paste as new layer below doodle layers. Resize 90%, rotate slight and move to upper left so leaves show past edge of journal layer. Duplicate, mirror, merge down, duplicate, flip, merge down. Duplicate 3 times. Close off top 2 duplicate layers. Adjust, add/remove noise, add noise, Gaussian, 35, Monochrome unchecked. Close off layer, open next layer up, add noise 50, close off, open next, add noise of 60.

Close off the top 2 layers of both the leaves and doodle layers. Copy merged, paste as new image. Go back to your original image, close of the first layers, open the 2nd layers, copy merged, go to your 2nd image and paste as new layer. Do this for the 3rd layers of the original and paste as new layer on the new image. File, save as, name your tag and save.

Open animation shop, browse to your image you just saved and open. Test your animation to make sure it looks the way you would like. Then, File, save as, name it, go thru the optimization and save. That's it!

Hope you enjoy your new tag!
