My ‘The Beat Goes On’ word art

1. Open a new image, 600X600.
2. Open DBA Frame 7, copy and paste to your blank canvas.
Select your Magic Wand tool, using these settings: Mode add(shift), Match Mode RGB Value, Tolerance 0, Feather 0, anti-alias checked. Click on the inside of your frame. Selections-->modify-->Expand by 10.
3. Open paper DBA Paper 40, copy and paste as a new layer, Move below your frame layer, Selections-->Invert-->Delete. Selections-->Select None.
4. Make your Frame layer active, and resize it by 85%.
5. Open your tube of choice, copy and paste as a new layer. Position it where you want it and resize if necessary. I lowered the opacity of mine and erased a little off the bottom so it looked like she was inside the frame.
6. Open DBA Silk Spotted Flower 1. Copy and paste as a new layer. Resize it by 35%. Arrange the flower on one corner of your frame. Duplicate it and arrange it on another corner of your frame.
7. Open DBA Paper 12, copy and paste as a new layer. Move to the very bottom and apply your mask. Merge Group. I resized my Mask Group by 115%. I also moved it so it was showing on all 4 sides of my frame.
8. Apply drop shadow to your layers.
9. I ‘X’ out my Mask layer and then merged visible, and then moved everything down a little on the canvas so it was more centered.
10. If you want to resize your tag, now is the time to do so. I resized mine by 85%.
11. Add word art if you wish.
12. Now all you need to do is add the Copyright info and your Name.
