**CT PTU TUTORIAL - Santa Knows...**
-VM.png)
*This tutorial is written by me using Photoshop CS6 but any version will work.
Any similarity to any other tut is coincidental.*
Supplies:
Tube of choice. I'm using the artwork of Verymany.
You must purchase a license to be able to use her work.
Kit of choice. I'm using PTU kit 'Candy Cane'
Template of choice. Santa Knows
Mask of choice.
Font of choice. Play Ground
Let's get started...
Open template. Hide or delete layers 'info', 'top white circle' and
'top purple circle'. Select all layers from the 'wordart' to 'white stripe'
and move them a little down. Now click on the layer 'white large circle'.
From the kit past Paper #15 and Create Clipping Mask. For the layer
'mauve large circle' create mask with Paper #12. Then for 'dot n dash'
layer use Paper #27 and Create Clipping Mask. Now select all of the
rectangle layers and delete them. Then from the kit past Element #119,
Rotate a little to the right and place it at the top right side.
Add Drop Shadow, Opacity 40%. Make a copy of it, Flip Horizontal and
place in the middle, little more to the left side. On the right tree
place Element #170. And on the left one add Element #147 with shadow
on both. On it place Element #182 so the bottom of element is right
under the stripe where's wordart, with shadow on 40%. Make a copy of
it, Flip Horizontal and place next to it. Then on the right side place
Element #119 again, with shadow. On it past Element #207, shadow. Under
this element just place paper or element on the window, to cover the
empty space. I used Paper #17. Next to the house, right side, add
Element #184, shadow. On it place Element #190 and then Element #171
on it, shadow on both 40%. Then on the hose left side place, again,
Element #119, shadow. On the snowman place Element #174, shadow.
Next to it, left, add Element #148 with shadow on 40%. Now add
Element #142 at the bottom left side, no shadow. On it place
Element #165 with shadow. Make a copy of it and place on the santa.
Past full size tube, Flip Horizontal and place. Use filter or
effect of choice and add shadow on 60%. Click on the 'white strip'
layer and past Paper #24. Create Clipping Mask from it. For the
'purple strip' layer create mask using Paper #12. Then for the
layer 'bottom purple circle' use Paper #24 to create mask. Click
on the 'bottom white circle' and move it to be inside the white
circle. Place a tube and Create Clipping Mask. Use diferent filter
or effect for this tube. For the layer 'wordart' set Storke on size 1,
color white, Color Overlay with color red and Outer Glow with color
white. Then add Element #105 and place under the WA.
Now let's add mask:
Open your mask as new image.
Mask layer will be called 'Background' and will be locked.
Double click on same layer, press OK. Layer name will be 'Layer 0'.
Add a new layer above it and flood fill with color of choice,
or use a paper from kit . I use Paper #20.
Click on mask layer and hold CTRL+A to Select All, CTRL+C to Copy.
Click on the paper layer, hit Q to turn on Quick Mask mode.
CTRL+V to paste the mask. It should now be kinda red.
Hit Q to turn off Quick Mask mode
and there should be shown selection on your canvas.
Hit the Add Layer Mask.
On paper layer, right click and Convert to Smart Object.
Right click again and Rasterize Layer.
Drag completed mask to your tag canvas as the bottom layer.
Resize it if needed.
Add proper copyright and your name on tag.
Hide or delete bottom 'Background' layer. And save your tag as .PNG file.

**CT PTU TUTORIAL - Let It Snow**
-danny.gif)
*This tutorial is written by me using Photoshop CS6 but any version will work.
Any similarity to any other tut is coincidental.*
Supplies:
Tube of choice. I'm using the artwork of Danny Lee.
You must purchase a license to be able to use her work.
Kit of choice. I'm using PTU matching kit 'Fall Leaf'
Brush of choice. HERE
Font of choice. robotech
Let's get started...
Open new canvas 600x250.
From the kit past Paper #1, resize it to fit the canvas. At the top
center place Element #68, rotate a little. On it past Element #67.
At the right side add Element #49, resize to fit. On it, to cover
left edge, place Element #57 with Drop Shadow, Opacity 50%. Add
Element #61 on those two elements. At the left top corner place
Element #75, shadow on 50%. To cover it a little add Element #67.
On it add Element #64 and #60. Next to the other element place
Element #72. On it add another copy of Element #64. At the left
bottom corner past Element #54 and rotate a little. Next to it
place Element #25, shadow. Then at the center place Element #57,
Drop Shadow 50%. On it past Element #10, #9 and #28 with shadow
on all. Cover those a little with Element #64. At the bottom right
corner place Element #39. Now add tube. Make a copy of tube. On the
copy layer set Blend Mode to Screen. Click on the original tube layer
and go to the Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation and set Lightness
to -26 and Saturation on +27. Then go to the Brightness/Contrast and
set Brightness on -22 and Contrast on 58. Now make a boarder. I used
full line brush for it, but you can do it the way you want. Then add
copyright info and name on you tag. If u don't want to do animation,
then that's it! Just save it and you'r done. If you do want to animate
it then keep reading.
Animation:
First you open animation .PSD file. Turn off all layers but the last one.
In this animation all of the layers are already grouped, so all you need
to do is just move the group right under the tube layer. Cause this ani
is small to fit canvas, just make a copy of the group, Flip Horizontal
and place it next to the original group. Now click on the
Window > Timeline > Create Frame Animation. Then duplicate frame to
have 10 frames in total. Number of frames should match the layers number
in the ani group. Timeline frame #1 should have animation layer #1.
Click on the frame #2 and uncheck ani layer #1 and check layer #2. And so
on till #10. But dont forget to do that in both groups at the same time.
So every timeline frame number should have matching animation layer number.
For every frame set time delay to 0 sec. To save it click on the
'Save for Web...' and don't change settings there, just save it. Don't
forget to save .PSD file as well. You can just click on the name on your
tag to change it and save again.
