This is a quickie one

Open a new image 800 x 800
Resize paper 5 to 23%, paste, apply your mask, delete and merge group, duplicate, merge down, resize larger to 110%.

Resize element 104 to 60%, paste on the mask layer.
Resize element 115 to 35%, paste on the right, duplicate move to the left and down some.

Resize your tube to 50%, paste off to the left side more.

Resize the overlay 7 to 35%, paste under your tube, duplicate, move above your tube and erase the parts you do not want on top of the tube.

Resize element 113 to 15%, place below the ski's layer to the left.
Resize element 25 to 30%, place behind the tube where you like, change the blend mode to hard light, duplicate, resize to 85%, move over to the right more, duplicate, mirror, adjust.

Resize element 12 to 20%, place on the right side how you like.
Resize element 16 to 20%, place below the ski layers and down, duplicate, mirror and adjust.

Do not merge your tag yet if you are going to do the signature tag.

For the Signature, new image 600 x 250, fill with either white or a light gray.
Paste the mask from your tag, move to one side, duplicate, mirror.
Paste the snowflake layer from your tag.
Copy and paste one of the trees, duplicate a couple of times and place where you like.
Paste the reindeer, resize smaller and place on the right.
Paste your tube, mirror, change the blend mode to overlay and move to the right.
Paste your tube again, move to the left.
Resize the skis, place toward the right and more at the bottom, below your tube layer.
Once happy with it all, merge visible, add copyright and name.
Add a frame of choice, I used AAA Frames-Foto Frame
Width was 3, Matte was 2 and Opacity was 50

If you want to do the Avator like I have, resize the ski cluster to a size to fit what is allowed for your group, then resize the snowflakes and place behind the skis, sharpen and add you name or an initial. If you would like a frame then do like before.

Now Crop your tag to be sure no stray shadows are on the edges of your tag.

Once happy with it all, close off any backgrounds, merge visible.
Resize first, then add your copyrights and name.

That's it

Hope you enjoyed doing my tut.

Font of Choice, I used Magnolia Light

Drop Shadow usually V2 H2 50 black

 *Remember to add your drop shadow as you go along*

Open a new image 600 x 250, resize paper 5 to 35%, paste on one side, duplicate, mirror, erase the center part to make it blend in more.

Resize element 48 to 25%, place on one side, duplicate, mirror.

Resize element 49 to 30%, place in the center above the fence layer.

Resize element 76 to 30%, paste on the right side, duplicate, move to the left and below the fence, duplicate again and move over some.

Resize element 29 to 15%, place on the left upper side.

Resize element 7 to 15%, place on the left side.

Resize element 47 to 15%, place on the left behind the snowman.

Resize element 51 to 15%, paste at the bottom, duplicate a couple of times and move how you like them.

Resize your close up tube to 17%, if using the same one I am, mirror and place where you like.

Click on your tag, select copy merged, and paste as a new layer, keeping the unmerged tag to use in the Avator how you would like it.
This way you can close off any layers you do not want to use in the Avator.

Merge visible, select all, new raster layer, fill with a color of choice,  contract by 5, delete, select none. Add noise at about 40% if you like.
Add your copyright and name.

Animation
Hope I explain the animation without confusing anyone.
To add the animated snow, close off the frame layer, copy merged to animation shop, making your tag have 30 layers to match the snow layers.
Once you have your 30 layers, click on the snow layer, go to Edit, Select All,  copy, then go to your tag, being on the first layer, click Edit, Select All, paste into selected frame.

Once that is done, go back to psp, close off the tag part and copy the frame with the copyright and name to animation shop, make 30 layers with this, then Edit, Select All, copy, then click on your tag, go to Edit, Select All, paste into selected frame, and line up your frame, paste and test your animation, if happy save.

Avator,
Open a new layer a size you prefer, I did 180 x 180, then I closed off the frame layer with the copyright and name, paste the tag I just finished and resized it to 85%, place how you like, then merge visible.  Select all, new raster layer, fill with the red again, contract by 5, delete, select none and add the noise again.
Do the same as before if you want the Avator animated also.

Be sure you add your copyright and name on the frame first.
That's it

Hope you enjoyed doing my tut.
