Nanoka


This tutorial was written by me on March 28, 2025. The results are of my own imagination.  Any resemblance to another tutorial is purely coincidental.  

Please DO NOT claim this tutorial as your own.

This was written assuming you have a working knowledge of PSP.

Please keep in mind that I write the tutorial as I am creating the tag.

Sometimes I may not explain properly where to place things so please see my example if you are ever in doubt :)

Supplies needed

I am using PSP 2018 but this tutorial should work with any version.

PTU Tube:  I am using LadySky's beautiful tube "Nanoka".  You can purchase this beauty here.

PTU Kit:  I am using a fabulous kit called "Nanoka" created by Tiny Turtle Designs.  You can purchase it here.

Font of choice for your name.  

Plug in: Mura Meister - Copies

Drop shadow of choice.  I am using Vertical 0, Horizontal 5, Opacity 85, Blur 10, color black.

I use Vivienne’s drop shadows quite a bit as I really like the look of her shadows.  Thank you for letting me use your settings for my tutorials.

An image can get blurred when you resize an element or tube in PSP.  I use unsharpen mask for each item.  Vivienne has wonderful tips and tricks on how to do this here.

Please read all the Artist's/Designer's TOU.

Let’s get started.

Open a new 800x800 transparent image.  We will resize later.  Flood fill with white.

Remember to sharpen and drop shadow each image as you create the tag.

Add a new raster layer.  Select all.  Copy paper of choice.  I am using paper 13 and close the original.  Standing on the new raster layer, go to edit, paste into selections.  Select none.  Go to layers, new mask layer, from image and locate mask 5 in the drop down and click ok.  Merge group.  You can close Allison's mask as we no longer need it.  Resize 105%.

Add your name and copyright.

Hide the white background and save as png.

I hope you have enjoyed my tutorial.  I would love to see your results.

Element 71 - Resize 10%, mirror and move to the left of element 62.  Drop shadow.

Element 95 - Resize 7% and move to the bottom of the skull.  Drop shadow.

Select Vivienne's mask layer and duplicate it.  Using the pick tool set to scale, pull the top of the mask down so it almost looks flat.  Mirror and move down so it shows under the mirror and elements on the bottom of the tag.  Duplicate and move to the right under the elements.  Duplicate one more time and move under the tube and elements.

Add any other elements you would like and make any adjustments on the tag.

Crop and resize your tag.  Be careful not to crop off any shadows or mask edges.  I resize mine to 650px on the width (if needed) as that is what fits my blog best.

Mischevious O'Malley


This tutorial was written by me on March 2, 2025. The results are of my own imagination.  Any resemblance to another tutorial is purely coincidental.  

Please DO NOT claim this tutorial as your own.

This was written assuming you have a working knowledge of PSP.

Please keep in mind that I write the tutorial as I am creating it.

Sometimes I may not explain properly where to place things so please see my example if you are ever in doubt :)

Supplies needed

I am using PSP 2018 but this tutorial should work with any version.

PTU Tube: I am using Stella Felice Art's stunning tube "Leprechaun".  You can purchase this tube at VM Artist's store here.

PTU Kit:  I am using a fabulous kit called "Mischevious O'Malley" created by Wicked Princess Scraps.  You can purchase her awesome kits here.

FTU Mask:  I am using Mizteeques mask 386.png.  You can download it from her blog here.

Font of choice for your name. 

Plug in: None

Drop shadow of choice.  I am using Vertical 0, Horizontal 5, Opacity 75, Blur 10, color black.

I use Vivienne’s drop shadows quite a bit as I really like the look of her shadows.  Thank you for letting me use your settings for my tutorials.

An image can get blurred when you resize an element or tube in PSP.  I use unsharpen mask for each item.  Vivienne has wonderful tips and tricks on how to do this here.

Please read all the Artist's/Designer's TOU.

Let’s get started.

Open a new 800x800 transparent image.  We will resize later.  Flood fill with white.

Remember to sharpen and drop shadow each image as you create the tag.

Copy Mizteeques mask and paste as a new layer.  Resize 90%.  Select all, float, defloat and add a new raster layer.  Open paper 3 and copy it.  Close the original.  Standing on the new raster layer, edit, paste into selections.  Select none and delete Mizteeques mask as we no longer need it.  Resize the mask paper layer by 90% again and move to the top center.

Element 49 - Resize 50% and move to the right of the mask.  Drop shadow.

Element 78 - Resize 40% and move to the left of element 49.  Drop shadow.

Element 90 - Resize 60% and move to the bottom left of element 78.  Duplicate and move to the lower right.  See mine for placement.  Drop shadow each layer.

Element 19 - Resize 40% and move to the lower left of element 78.  Drop shadow.

Element 60 - Resize 20% and move to the lower left of element 19.  Drop shadow.

Element 128 - Resize 20%, mirror and move to the lower left of element 19.  Drop shadow.

Element 18 - Resize 40% and move to the lower right of element 19.  Drop shadow.

Element 107 - Resize 40% and move to the bottom center between the well and the truck.  Drop shadow.

Element 96 - Resize 60% and move to the lower center of the tag.  Drop shadow.

Element 15 - Resize 30% and move to the lower left of element 19.  Drop shadow.

Element 1 - Resize 20% and move to the bottom of element 18.  Drop shadow.

Element 22 - Resize 15% and move to the upper right of element 15.  Drop shadow.

Element 91 - Resize 40% and move to the lower left of element 18.  Drop shadow.

Copy and paste tube as a new layer.  Resize 25% and move in the center of element 96.  Drop shadow.

Element 89 - Resize 40% and move to the bottom of the tube.  Drop shadow.

Element 13 - Resize 15% and move to the lower right of element 19.  Drop shadow.

Element 23 - Resize 15% and move to the lower center of element 89.  Drop shadow.

Element 24 - Resize 15% and move to the lower right of element 15.  Drop shadow.

Element 76 - Resize 30% and move to the lower right of the tube.  Drop shadow.

Element 28 - Resize 15% and move to the left of element 76.  Drop shadow.

Element 57 - Resize 15% and move to the lower left of element 76.  Drop shadow.

Element 47 - Resize 15% and move to the lower right of element 57.  Drop shadow.

Element 2 - Resize 10% and move to the lower left of the violin.  Drop shadow.

Select the mask layer and duplicate it.  Using the pick tool set to scale, pull the top down so the mask almost looks flat.  Move it under the truck.  Duplicate, mirror and move under the well.  Duplicate the first one again and move under the tube.  Duplicate this layer one more time.  Resize 50% and move under the gold.

Add any other elements you would like and make any adjustments on the tag.

Crop and resize your tag.  Be careful not to crop off any shadows or mask edges.  I resize mine to 650px on the width (if needed) as that is what fits my blog best.
