Cuddly Friends

Butterfly Blush has an adorable new tag kit called "My Cuddly Friends" & it's on sale right now!
I've made a tag with tutorial & a freebie quick page.

Tutorial for “Cuddle Up” tag

What I used:
Tag kit from Butterfly Blush called “My Cuddly Friends” http://butterflyblushdesigns.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=8_9&products_id=354
Poser by Ithas Poser Tubes
Adobe Photoshop Creative Suite 4.0 (make certain “show transform controls” is checked for easy resizing)

What I did:
1. Open a new transparent canvas 700 pixels x 700 pixels. Use preset shapes to draw a large heart. Use layer>new fill layer with use previous layer to create clipping mask to fill the heart with background of choice (paper 2).
2. Choose a bow (bow 1). Copy & paste, positioning at top center of heart. Apply bevel & emboss effect.
3. Choose the elements that you wish to use. I chose panda 3, frog 1, hippo 1, & dragonflies 4. Copy, paste, resize as needed, & position elements around your poser of choice (cookie-pink03-itha). Apply bevel & emboss effect to each element.
4. Add text in desired colour & font. In this case I used Ottum HMK Bold 14 in a blue, with glitter 17 from Yarrow applied. Use a smaller font for tag information (Ottum HMK 03).

Enjoy.
