On Raster 6 repeat the same steps
as above.
Do the same for Raster 7 and then on
the copy You'll have to scroll up

use another with a lighter shade.
Ok go back down to Raster 4 and using
Your Manual color correction tool
use these settings:
Manual color target
checked.
Freehand Selection
unchecked.
Source: use the eye dropper tool and
use the same color as the
frame.
Target a color that goes well with
the rest of Your QP.
Now delete all the templates original
layers except leave Raster 3
alone. We'll get to that here in just a
little bit.
Now just start to add any of the elements
from Your chosen tag that You

Click on raster layer 12 and hit Your
delete key once again.

these steps.
See how easy this was? You've now learned
a new trick.
Ok now We are going to add some text to
this very pretty page You've
been making.
Click on Your eye dropper tool and depending
on the paper You used
on the background You will either choose a
light or dark color.
Now add any of the text You want and give
it a pretty drop shadow.
If You wish to now add an image of Your own
just click inside the frame and go to
selections
modify
contract
by only a few pixels though and then it should
look very very nice.
I hope You enjoy this tutorial as much as I did
writing it for You.
