Thanks for Rocking Out my tutorial, I hope you enjoyed! ~Lori 

For animation: 

Bubbles:

 Make all layers of the tag visiable except for the swing and tube sitting on the swing.

 Copy merged layers and paste as new animation in animation shop. Hold Ctrl + shift+ l 

buttons and continue pasting until you have 60 frames. 

Open the bubbles in animation shop. Delete frame 2, the credit frame. 

Edit-select all-animation-cull animation with the following settings. 

 Select-all-copy. Go to the tag in animation, hit ctrl+a, then ctrl+e to paste into selected 

frame. When it comes up, arrange it so the little blue dot in the first frame is in the middle 

of the bubble wand, then right click. 

 Butterflies: 

Open butterflies hit ctrl+a, ctrl+x, go to the tag, ctrl+a, ctrl+e, arrange butterflies to

 liking, right click. 

Swing: 

go to paintshop pro, go to layers, view, invert. 

So only the swing and tube sitting on it is visible, copy. 

Go to animation shop, and paste as a new animation. 

Go to Insert Image Effect using the following settings:

 Go to frame 4, select it, holding down the ctrl button, select every frame after frame 4,

 hit the delete button on your keyboard, you should only have 3 frames left. 

(you don't want the last frame being so small, that is why we made it with

 10 and then deleted, if you make it with 3 frames, the last one would be to small.) 

Go to the 1st frame, with your move tool, very CAREFULLY, 

slide the swing to the top, do this for the 2nd and 3rd frames also. 

This will be your '1st set of swing animation' for later use.

Ctrl+a, Ctrl+c, ctrl+v, (select-all-copy-paste as new animation) 

Go to animation on your tool bar, reverse frames. 

Ctrl+a, Ctrl+c, go to the 1st set of swing animation, 

and paste after last frame. 

Ctrl+a, Ctrl+c, go to last frame, 

Ctrl+Shift+l, which will copy all 6 frames and paste them after the last frame. 

Keep hitting Ctrl+Shift+l until you have 30 frames, 

then hit Ctrl+a,Ctrl+c,

 go to last frame,Ctrl+Shift+l, which will give you 60 frames total! 

Hit Ctrl+a, Ctrl+c one more time!

 Go to the tag, Ctrl+a, Ctrl+e to paste into selected frame, 

once it shows up, arrange to fit just under the frame of the long rectangle. 

Go to animation, with all frames still selected, frame properties, and set to 25. 

View and Save animation!

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. Close the original.

Open paper several papers of choice. Minamize for later use.

Go to large circle layer, Open paper image3, go to Selections-All-Float-Defloat. Add new raster layer and paste into selection. Delete original layer.

Do this to all the smaller circles except circle 3 and to frame the background and frame.

For circle 3, open button 2, resize 134x139 pixels, copy and paste as a new layer and arrange to fit over circle 3.

Open butterflywireframe of choice, arrange above the large circle layer.

Add tube of choice, arrange and resize to fit to liking inside the frame. Go to Effects-PhotoEffects-Black and White film with setting to your liking. Go to your layer properties and set to overlay. Go to your frame background, go to Selections-All-Float-Defloat-Invert go to the tube layer and hit the delete key on your keyboard. Duplicate 3 times so you have 4 layers. Arrange one to the second circle at the top, go to that circle, go to Selections-All-Float-Defloat-Invert go to the tube layer and hit the delete key on your keyboard. Do this with another tube but placing it in the circle under the button layer. Leave the last two layers where they are, do not merge down, it will lighten it up, to me it just looks better.

Open the stat element, resize to 179x103 pixels, arrange to the bottom of the frame background layer.

Add wordart of choice, resize to likin, go to Selections--All-Float-Defloat-Modify-Expand by 3. Add a new raster layer, arrange below the wordart and flood fill with color of choice.

Add Stethascope resize to 92x178 pixels, arrange to the top of the wireframe, to make it look like a part of it is going throught the frame, with your eraser tool set to a small size setting, I used 4, carefully erase a very small portion of the stehascope.

Open IVdrip, resize to 143x423 pixels, arrange to the right of the image. Add tube of choice, and arrange above the IV drip. If using the same tube and you want her arm to 'wrap around' the drip, first you will add a dropshadow of choice, then duplice the tube and arrange one below the drip, go to the top tube and carefully erase a very small portion of the arm Go to the bottom tube and carefully erase most of the tube except the portion of the arm. this way the shadow isn't too much on the tube.

Add anyother elements of choice.
