Alright, let's begin! 
Open a new canvas, size 800x650.
Open your template. Select all layers, unclick the raster and word art, link together and move on to the blank canvas.

The three vertical bars in the back will be red, blue, and green from left to right in that order:
#c00404, #0328db, #2f821a
Make sure you change the color to the lower layer of each vertical bar and leave the overlay alone.
Add a drop shadow to each lower layer.

Frame around the main square:
Fill white
Add a drop shadow
Bevel: Leave everything as default, but change the shadow to #848282.

Main Square fill to this color #d7f8ff.

Place the tube behind the frame and create a clipping mask to the main square. Resize and move so she's not cut off too close to the face and her arm is just hiding behind the frame. Add a drop shadow #3b3a3a.

Move the Sun 2 in the upper left corner and resize. Rotate a little and add a glow: change the size to 12 and leave everything else the same.
Place the Waves 1 behind the frame at the bottom. Erase any parts outside the frame.
Move the Seagull to the right of the Sun. Resize so it's tiny.

Now take the Towel and place it under the frame to the right. Duplicate two more times so it covers below the frame. Add a drop shadow.

Place Sand 2 on top of the towels in front of the main square. Move one copy to the left side and resize. Duplicate and move to underneath the first copy so they are even. Merge the two layers together.
Use the small round eraser around 20px and soften the bottom of the sand.

Move the Surfboard 2 on the left side of the square and behind the sand. Rotate a little to the left and add a dropshadow.

Move the Palmtree 1 behind the surfboard and add a drop shadow.

Place Flower 1 behind the sand at the bottom and in front of the surfboard. Resize and rotate so it's pointing down. Add a drop shadow.
Duplicate the Flower 1 and move to the right side behind the sand, but this time move it to the top of the sand hill. Point this one toward the top.

Place the Beachbag in front of the surfboard and sand on the left. Resize and add a drop shadow. Make sure not to cover up the flower.

Move the Beachball 1 on the right side of the sand layer and in front. Resize and add a drop shadow. Make sure not to cover up the flower.

Place Pail 2 to the left of the beach ball so they overlap. Resize and add a drop shadow. 

Place the Flipflops 2 to the right of the beachbag so they overlap very little. Resize and add a drop shadow.
Now place the Sunscreen 1 next to the flip flips so they overlap very little too. Resize and add a drop shadow.

Move the sunglasses between the sunscreen and pail. Resize so they touch just a little. Add a drop shadow.

Place the Starfish on to the sand hill behind the pail. Resize and rotate a little.

Move the Kite behind everything and on top of the sand. Resize and rotate so it's laying behind the elements on the sand. Add a drop shadow.

Let's make the mask:
Open a blank canvas, paper 3, and your mask and resize them all to 600x600.
Move the paper on to the canvas and then the paper. 
Remove the white background then move behind the tag. 
Resize so you can see it on all three sides (except the bottom, erase that part). 
Make sure you do not stretch it off the canvas.

PTU Tutorial "Dark Dreamer"

I have a new PTU tutorial using Dark Dreamer by Annaica's Place. I matched it with a tube by Zindy S.D. Nielsen.


**This tutorial was written by me and any resemblance is purely coincidental  It is written for those with a working knowledge of Photoshop.**

What you will need:
Filter
Xero Porcelain

Font

Mask
WSL_Mask216

Scrap Kit
by Annaica's Place

Tube
Doll At Heart
*You must obtain a license to use this tube.*

Elements
2
10
22
23
35
37
45
52
55

Papers
9
14

Let's begin!
Open a blank canvas, size 650x650.

Move Element52 on the blank canvas. Rotate a little and add a drop shadow.

Place the tube in front of the frame. Resize and add a drop shadow.
Add these settings using Xero Porcelain to the tube.


Behind the tube, place Paper14 behind the frame. Erase extras outside the frame. Move Paper9 on top of Paper14, create a clipping mask, and then change it to overlay. 

Move Element10 behind the tube on the left. Resize and add a drop shadow.

Place Element2 behind the tube on the right side. Resize and add a drop shadow.

Move Element22 behind the tube on the left, but in front of the clock. Resize and add a drop shadow.
Move Element23 behind the black flower. Resize and add a drop shadow.
Duplicate the black and purple flower and move to the other side behind the tube and in front of the pillows.

Place Element45 behind the tube, but in front of the pillows and behind the clock. Resize and add a drop shadow in #3a0a47.

Now take Element37, place it on top of the frame and behind everything else above the frame. Rotate so you have the curve behind her head on the right. Resize. Duplicate and place it behind the tube and on top of the clock.  Resize and rotate so you the swirl at the top of the clock.

Move Element35 behind the papers and frame. Resize and add a drop shadow #3a0a47.
Duplicate a couple more times so you can have the stars around the top half of the frame. 

Now move element55 behind the tube and on top of the pillows and ribbon. Have it flow over the elements like I did. Add a white stroke, size 2 and add a drop shadow, color #3a0a47.

Let's make the mask:
Open a new canvas, size 600x600.
Open your mask and make sure it is also 600x600.
Open Paper14 again and resize it to 600x600.
Place the Paper on top of the blank canvas and then move the mask on top of the paper.
Remove the white background and place the behind the stars and frame.
Stretch the mask out so you can see it around the frame. 

For the name:
The font is Miss Brooks
The main color is black and add a white stroke, size 2.
Move it over the clock in a smaller size.

I have a few freebie snags for you!
