To do this tutorial you must have some knowledge of PSP and Animation Shop.
This Tag was made using PSPX2 and Animation Shop. This tutorial is also copyrighted by Young at Heart Designs.
Im using the Beautiful work of Rachael Tallamy. If you wish to use her work you must have a license to use her work before using her tubes.
To purchase her tubes, images and receive a license go to HERE.
The adorbale kit I used is called Angels Among Us by "Kristi W." at ScrappinDivaz Designz and it can be found HERE.
Supplies I used:
Tag Template # 218 by Divine Intention which can be found HERE.
Mask # 18 by Magsnificant Creations which also can be found HERE.
Font: Vladimir Script
Plug-in: Alien Skin Xenofex 2->Constellation
I used shadow settings V3,H2, O50, B5, Color Black on ALL elements, layers, text and the tube except for the mask layer.
I also sharpened every element and image I had to re size to get the quality like the original size.

37 Add Copyrights
38 If you are not doing the animation merge all layer, resize all layers to 500x500 and save.

Background Fill- Keep Original Image
Random Seed- 1
45 Click ok.
46 Now hide this layer and click on Large Circle2.
47 Repeat Steps #: 43-45. The only thing you need to change is when you are inputing your settings click Random Seed once so it is no longer 1.
48 Now hide this layer and click on Large Circle3.
49 Repeat Steps #: 43-45 and again click the Random Seed button so it changes again.
50 Now you are going to Repeat Steps: 39-49 for each Circle Frame Background layer- the medium and small sizes.

60 Unhide Large Frame Circle3, Medium Frame Circle3 and Small Frame Circle3. Repeat Steps #: 53-54 and 58
I ended up with 3 frames.
61 Once you have all your frames go to the very first frame.
62 Go to Edit->Select All or you can hit Ctrl+A.
63 We are going to resize to 500x500 by going to Animation->Resize Animation
