Let’s get started.

Open up Paint Shop Pro.

Create a new raster layer, 850x850 and flood fill white.

Don’t worry about the size as we will resize and crop later.

Open up your scrap kit Alyce in Gothland and have ready.

Let’s get started with any elements you might like from the kit. I used:

DCD_AIG_Mesh01: Copy and paste as a new layer.

DCD_AIG_Fractual05: Copy and paste as a new layer.

Drag this layer under your mesh and move this to the top left. Duplicate once, flip.

DCD_AIG_Parchment02: Copy and paste as a new layer.

Move to the left of mesh. Free rotate to the left by 15 degrees.

DCD_AIG_Whimsical Tree: Copy and paste as a new layer,

 resize by 60% and move to the right of the tag above your parchment.

Make sure this layer is above the parchment layer.

DCD_AIG_Door01: Copy and paste as a new layer.

Position this above your Whimsical Tree to the right of the tag.

DCD_AIG_Mushroom02: Copy and paste as a new layer.

Move in front of the door. See mine to reference.

DCD_AIG_Throne: Copy and paste as a new layer. Resize by 60%. Move to the left of the mushroom.

DCD_AIG_Potion Bottle: Copy and paste as a new layer. Resize by 80%. Move to the right of the throne.

DCD_AIG_Sign-DrinkMe: Copy and paste as a new layer. Resize by 40%. Move under your thrown layer, use your pick took to turn it some. See mine to reference.

DCD_AIG_Pocket Watch02: Copy and paste as a new layer. Resize by 55%.

Move this layer to bottom right of the thrown.

Make sure it’s under the thrown layer so it’s sticking out.

Now copy and paste your poser/tube of choice. For the top example I used a Mad Hatter out of the kit, provided in the supplies. Copy and paste as a new layer. Use your pick tool to sit him as if he’s sitting on the chair.

Now add your name to the bottom of your tag. I used font Luciferius , Size 20, Stroke width 3, Foreground Color code: #7d5981 and Background Color, I used a paper from the kit: DCD_AIG_Paper01 (I set the scale to 65% for more detail),

then Convert to a Raster and add a drop shadow.

Drag this layer under your tube layer so it rests at his feet.

For the second tube, in the bottom example I used a poser called: Curious Hatter by Joelle. I

 move the mushrooms to the left, add the tube to the right of the thrown.

And then added the word art on top of the chair as if it was sitting on the chair.

Now add any additional drop shadows you prefer to the elements.

Now add any copyrights and watermarks.

Crop to get rid of any excess white or background of the tag. Resize to your preference.

Now Save as default (psp image) for later for tag offers or alterations.

Right Click, Copy Merged and paste as a new image. Now save as a JPG with the white background, or keep your white background hidden and save as a PNG. (Transparent Background).
