Now lets get started with the tutorial
1. Open a new image set the Width at 525 and set the Height at 400.
2. Copy and paste as a new image the image below as we will need it again later in the tutorial.

3. Now right click on your work area and paste as a new layer and leave it where it lies.
4. Go to Adjust/Blur/Gausian Blur and set this to 30.
5. Go to Adjust/Hue and Saturation/Colourize and apply the settings below.

6. Now here are your choices for a different look to your tag:
- To achieve the purples look in the sample below duplicate your layer.
- To achieve a different colour you will have to colourize to the colour
you want and then duplicate your layer.
- To achieve the multi colour look as I have in the header copy and paste the image below.

7. If you have chosen the image above you will have to go to Adjust/Blur/Gausian Blur and apply the same setting of 30.
8. At this point we all have two layers set the Opacity of Layer 2 to 63 for the purple and colourized versions, for the new image on top versions set your Opacity to 42.
9. Go to Effects/Sapphire Filter and set to the following, I had to import the sapphire filter into Filters Unlimited but the settings will be the same.

10. Now copy your bedroom scene again (if you don't have it just scroll up and copy again).
11. Now paste it as a new layer on your work area.
12. On your layers palette change the Opacity to 68 and the Blend Mode to Luminance (Legacy).
13. Now copy and paste your lace curtains tube, leave it where it lies.
14. On your layers palette change the Blend Mode to Luminance (Legacy).
15. On your layers pallet lower the opacity of this layer to 93.
16. Copy and paste your couples tube, arrange to the righ, I lined up the ringlet that is hanging loose with the one fold of the lace.

32. If you are using the purple or colourized version activate your background layer.
