Let's Rock this Tutorial!!

Open the template in PSP, using your shortcut keys on your keyboard (SHIFT+D) duplicate the template as a new image. Resize canvas to 800 x 800, you can resize and/crop later. Close the original.

Open papers 7, 8,17 and 21. Resize as needed. For example, when I look at the blue bar where it tells me what I've opened paper1, it tells me what percentage I'm viewing it at. For me it's usually 16%, so I resize to 16% bringing it to 100%. ( I hope that made sense!) Once you've done this, minimize for later use.

Go to the wordart layers, Image-free rotate- to the right at a 270 degree angle. Arrange to the left of the tag, over the shamrock.Arranging 'Irish Babe' so that the word art and glitter word art fit with each other. Change the color of the glitter word art to #fec472.

Go to the clover layer, copy and paste clover of choice as a new layer, resize and arrange to fit over the original clover, delete the original layer.

Go to Raster 5, copy and paste a beaded frame of choice as new layer, resize to fit over the small white circle. Open frame02, copy and paste as a new layer, resize and arrange to fit over the inner beaded frame circle. Delete both original small circles.
