with your text tool font Valentine In Love type out struck by love
over your rec layer. (see my tag)

ok now at this time you need to add your cr info to your tag
and your name i used AlexBrush. and added a glow to it.

 

you can save your tag as it is now or you can continue to follow this
tutorial and animate.

 

for the animation you need to open animation shop
find your animation open it up
Edit/select all File/export frame to psp
this will bring it up in paint shop pro
starting from frame 1 make sure its selected in the layer palette
go to adjust/hue and saturation
hue:255 Saturation 248 hit ok.

do this for all 11 layers.

 

at this point go to your tag and x out your name , the element and
cr if its over the circle layer.

select your circle .Selections/select all/float/
defloat. Selections/modify contract by 3 if you added a gradient glow
before like i did.if not just select the circle.

 

go back to your animation in psp starting from frame 1 copy and
paste on your banner as a new layer, dont move anything just leave it there.
do this for all 11 layers.

you can name your layers if this helps.

 

when you are finished, go to selections/invert and hit delete on each of
the heart layers you just added.

Selections/select none.

 

ok un x the layers you x'ed out before, make sure layer 1 of
your animation in psp is un x'ed (i renamed mine heart 1-11)
copy merges on your tag

take to animation shop paste as a new layer

go back to psp x out your heart layer 1 and un x layer 2
copy merged and go over to animation shop , paste after current frame.

 

keep doing this for all layers going from psp back to animation shop
paste after current frame each time, make sure in animation shop
you are on the last frame that your copied over there.

 

when your finished view your animation and if your happy with it
save your tag

for these few instructions here.

paste paper 2 as a new layer resize by 50% and then again by 60%
selections/invert hit delete on keyboad. Select none.

 

on the middle circle or cir1 select all flood fill with #dc1919
delete original. add gradient glow or drop shadow.

 

if your animating, select the middle circle
select all/float/defloat. resize the heart animation you already
have open in psp.

if you closed it out like i did and have to restart.
resize by 70% then again by 80%

or resize to preference.

 

repeat the same steps as in the banner animation.

add your name or initial and thats it.

i hope you enjoyed this tutorial .
