REFLECTIONS





This tutorial was written by me on January 27th 2025

It's been a while since I have written anything so here you are.

This is a very quick & easy tutorial

My ideas are my own.

Any similarity to another is purely coincidental & unintentional.

A basic knowledge of PSP is required.


I use PSPX4 but any version will work.


Materials needed :-

Main image of choice (please remember to credit)


Scrap kit or elements of choice. I used a FTU kit by Adrienne's Desgins

which can be found HERE


Mask 122 by Miztequee can be found HERE


Font of choice I used PoemRenaissance Regular, but any script font will work.


Filters used :-

Drop Shadow Used throughout as needed.

H – 0

V – 5

Opacity – 25

Blur 15


Gradient Glow (for font, optional)


This is a really simple tutorial instructions as follows


Open a new blank canvas 850 x 850

Select all, copy & paste paper 3 into selection, deselect.

Apply mask & reduce opacity to your liking. I dropped mine to 60%

Copy & paste frame 5 resize 80%

Move to the left & down

(see finished tag for my placement as a guide)


With the magic wand click inside the frame, expand 5

Copy & paste your image as a new layer place within the selection to personal taste, invert selection hit delete, deselect & drag under the frame.

Merge the frame and image layer together.

Duplicate & resize 80% Move up and slightly to the right.

Repeat the above on the smaller frame.

Choose the elements of choice and arrange as you like them. Follow my finished tag as a guide.

Merge all

Copy change this layer to overlay and reduce opacity to 70% (this step is optional.) Merge layers.

Add your copyright info.

Add anything else you may want to add ie sparkles, wordart etc..

Add your name you can like me add gradient glow to it or leave as you see fit.

Merge all & save as png.
