- 1. Unzip and open all supplies in PSP. Choose your tube, open it and minimize all
- 2. Open new image 600 x 500 and Flood fill with white
- 3. Go to preset shapes Choose a heart of choice I used heart 1

- Hold shift key down (this makes a better proportioned shape) Draw the heart to desired size Go to objects/align/center in canvas
- Convert to raster
- 4. On this heart layer Click magic wand
Replace/ RGB value/ Tolerance 20/ contigious ticked/ Feather 0/ anti alias unchecked
- Click on the black outline of your heart. You will now see the marching ants:
- 5. Duplicate heart x 2 - You Now have 3 hearts
- 6. Open the 3 red glitters from your supplies. Go to your colour palette and select Patterns - You will notice in your patterns the 3 glitters
- Select glitter 1 - ok and go to original heart layer. Flood fill with glitter

- 7. You now should have:
White raster layer (bottom layer)
Heart layer
Heart layer duplicate
Heart layer duplicate 2
You may rename these layers if it helps you
 
- 8. Go to the original heart layer
- Magic wand (same settings) Click inside the heart Selections/Modify/Expand by 5
 
- Open the scrapkit. Using paper of choice from the scrap kit provided, highlight the layer - then go to Edit/Copy
- Then Edit/Paste as new layer
- Selections/invert - Then hit your delete key.
- This is what it should look like:
- Move paper layer below the heart. Go to Layers/Properties and Lower to 75 and select none
- 9. Go to white layer and add a new raster layer. Flood fill with colour of choice
- Open the WSL-Mask 17
- Go to Layers/ New mask layer/ From image - Select Mask wsl-17/ invert mask data unchecked Source/ luminance checked/ ok
