Supplies

Open up the supplies in psp. The font I used should be standard, if not choose something to your liking.  Import the brushes into psp 8-10

These brushes won't work in psp7 so you could write the sentiment out with some pretty text and use another brush that you have from your collection.

Open a new canvas 450x350 transparent

Click on the textureyellow.jpg and go to Edit - Copy

Click back onto your canvas and go to Selections - Select all

right click on the header of your canvas and choose paste - paste into selection

Selections - Select None

Click on the mist of Jessica and go to edit - copy

then paste as a new layer onto your canvas.

Set this layer to Luminance Legacy and lower the opacity to 26.

Position this layer up and to the right of the canvas.

Copy and paste as a new layer again and resize by 65% bicubic resize all layers unchecked.

Position to the left of the canvas and down a bit... set this layer to multiply.

Hope you enjoyed the tutorial!  I have a few more samples below

On this one I colorized the bottom layer a bright pink I did not apply the flower brush to this one

On this one I did not add the second layer of the mist, and I did not use the flower brush.
