Heaven Sent FTU/PTU Tutorial Part 2 - Animated

9:13 PM | Edit Post

This tutorial was written by Ashley Zimmerman on 5/21/2020
Any resemblance to any other tutorial is coincidental.
Supplies I used:
 PSP – I used 2020 but any version will do
Jasc Animation Shop
Animation 1268 from Package 422
Animation 1409 from Package 469
Both from Rebel Dezigns
The animations are PTU
We will be going back and forth between Animation Shop (AS)
and PSP

If you did the first half of the tutorial and came to this then
your tag should still be open in PSP !

Let's get started !!

Open Animation Shop
Open animation 1268 & 1409
Minimize animation 1409 as we will use this animation second

We are going to resize animation 1268


When you have resized now
Edit > Select All or CTRL A

Back to PSP 

Layers > View > None
Now select your Note Tube and
every layer beneath it
Click the visibility toggle
(the little box on the left)
Now all these layers will be on your canvas  


Now activate only your White background layer
It should be the only one highlighted blue
Edit > Copy Special > Copy Merged

Back to AS

Edit > Paste as new animation
Press CTRL L until you have 25 frames like our animation
If you look in the bottom right hand corner it will tell you how many frames you have 

Edit > Select All
Edit > Propagate Paste

Now go back to animation 1268
Edit > Copy

Now on your tag
Edit > Paste Into Selected Frame
Place where you would like
I placed mine to the left on top of my Note Tube
*Note* You can click View > Animation to see if you like
where it is placed 
If not just click the undo button
and try again !

Back to PSP

Now we want to hide all the layers that are currently showing
Layers > View > None
Now select every layer above your Note Tube
CTRL and select each layer
then click the visibility toggle box
and they will all appear on your canvas 


go to the very last one it should be element 5 and
make sure this is your only active layer
So it should be the only one highlighted blue
Edit > Copy Special > Copy Merged

Back to AS

Edit > Paste into selected frame
Place where you want it to go

Now maximize animation 1409
Edit > Select All
Edit > Copy

Go to your tag and
Edit > Paste into selected frame
and place where you would like

Back to PSP

Layers > View > None
And now select element 19 & above
This will include your copyright and also
if you are only doing one name on your tag and
not for multiples then
have your name on the tag also
I am making for multiple so I do not have a name
on my tag yet



Activate element 19 it should be the only one
highlighted blue
Edit > Copy Special > Copy Merged

Back to AS

Edit > Paste into selected frame
and place where it goes

Now I am done animating my tag
If you are only doing one name on your tag then it should already be
on there with the last copy merged we did
and you can now simply save as a gif

If you are wanting the tag to be for multiple people then
we are going to save as a Animation Shop Animation (*.mng)


Now close your saved (*.mng) tag

Now the reason we are saving as a (*.mng) is because
I want to make my tag for multiple people

I am making my tag for 3 People which equals 3 names
So I am going to open my saved (*.mng) tag 3 times
On each one press CTRL A it will select all 25 frames
which we need


Back to PSP

Layers > View > None
select your text tool
and write out the first name
Covert to Raster Layer
and add any effects you would like
I used Eye Candy 4000 Gradient Glow and added a DS
of   V: 3, H:2, Opacity: 60, Blur: 3 (Color Black)

Now select your text tool again and write out the next name
Convert to Raster Layer
add effects and repeat for as many names as you have

When you have all your names finished
Layers > View > None
Now activate the first name you are going to use
Edit > Copy Special > Copy Merged

Back to AS

Edit > Paste into selected frame
place where you would like

When it is placed where you would like
File > Save as (*.gif)
It is the first one from the dropdown menu when the
dialog box opens
I use all the custom settings when I save
Click Next , Click Next, Click Next then Click Finish
Now close

*Note* when you close that tag you will still have your tags underneath it
that we opened for each name we made !

Now repeat those steps for each name !
When you go back to PSP
Just hide the name you just used
and make the next name active and visible then
Edit > Copy Special > Copy Merged

Also when you save each tag in AS
MAKE SURE you save each one as a (*.gif)

*Note* another cool thing is when you are done making all your tags
in AS you can go back to PSP
Layers > View > All
Hide the names
Hide the white background layer
Change your credits so it doesnt
have the animation credit on it
Then save as a PNG 
**Keep your tag opened**

Now you can
activate each name one at a time
(because we already have them all on the canvas!)
place the name where you would like
and save it as a PNG for said person
Then you would just hide that name
and go onto the next and repeat !

I hope you enjoyed my tutorial !

Heaven Sent FTU Tutorial Part 1

8:25 PM | Edit Post

This tutorial was written by Ashley Zimmerman on 5/21/2020
Any resemblance to any other tutorial is coincidental.
Supplies I Used:
PSP – I used 2020 but any version will do
Tube of Choice I used the new FTU Ladybugs Tube by
Barbara Jensen & the matching FTU kit which you can get HERE
Font of Choice - Font I used for the names was Saritha
Plugins Used
Eye Candy 4- Gradient Glow
**Abbreviations I use**
C&P - Copy and Paste DS- Drop Shadow RS- Resize 
Drop Shadow used is V: 3, H:2, Opacity: 80, Blur: 10 (Color Black) Apply Drop Shadow to all your elements as we go along unless I state NO DS! *Also Sharpen all your elements as we go along!
Let's get started !!

Open a new canvas 750x750
*Note I will post a Part 2 which will be the animated version of the tag- If you are wanting
to do the animated version then you will need to flood fill your canvas with white!
If you aren't doing the animated version just leave your canvas transparent!*

Open element 4 C&P on canvas
Image > Free Rotate > Left 20 degrees
Objects > Align > Center in Canvas

Open element 8 C&P on canvas, RS 55%
place at the bottom right hand side of element 4 , add DS

Open element 19 place under element 8 to the right , add DS
Open element 28 RS 30% place above element 4 to the left , add DS

Open element 2
Image > Free Rotate > Left 45 degrees , add DS
place below element 19 to the right

Open element 3 , RS 45%
arrange > bring to top , add DS

Open element 1
Flip > Horizontal , move beneath element 4 to the right , add DS

Open element 12 RS 65% (NO DS)
place above element 4 to the right

Open element 22 RS 75% (NO DS)
place to the left beneath element 1 
Open element 7 RS 85% (NO DS)
place above element 22 
Open element 20 RS 80% (NO DS)
place beneath element 22
Objects > Align > Center in Canvas

Open element 17 RS 70% (NO DS)
place above element 20
Objects > Align > Center in Canvas
Open element 26
Image > Free Rotate > Right : Free 30 degrees
RS 50% place between element 2 & 12 to the right
add DS
C&P your tube on your canvas
Place between elements 19 & 2  to the right
SHARPEN
Now duplicate your tube , on the duplicate
Adjust > Blur > Gaussian Blur - Radius : 10
Change your blend mode to overlay
Merge down , add DS
rename Tube
Open element 5
Image > Free Rotate > Left : Free 30 degrees
RS 40 % place above element 4 to the left , add DS
Open Wordart RS 60%
place above element 3 to the right
Effects > Plug-Ins > Eye Candy 4000
and you can use whatever color you would like and thickness
ect , I used white and
my settings are
Glow Width : 3
Soft Corners : 25
Overall Opacity : 100
and I use Medium
Add DS 
Activate your tube layer
Edit > Copy

Now select element 4
grab your magic wand and click on element 4
Selections > Float
Selections > Defloat
Now you should have marching ants around it like this 

Edit > Paste as new layer (this will be your tube you copied)
grab your move tool and move your tube over to the left
where you would like


When placed where you want it
Selections > Invert , press delete
Now it should look like this
Selections > Select None

Now change your blend mode to Luminance Legacy
Opacity about 53
Rename Note Tube
Now it should look like this


If you want to do the animated version do not close out your tag or save it yet
and  head on over to Part 2 HERE !
If you are doing the non animated version then
Add your copyrights , Crop away any excess canvas
Save as PNG/JPG then add name(s)

I hope you enjoyed my tutorial !
