Any resemblance to another
tutorial is purely coincidental.
For this tutorial, I’m using
a tube Cuddly Rigor Mortis
You can purchase her tubes at
CDO

Supplies:
Tube of choice
Scrap of choice.
I’m using a kit by TK Dezigns
inspired by Cuddly Rigor Mortis.
The scrapkit is available also at
CDO.

Open a 600x600 new image.
Open up your tube & scrap supplies.

Open an ice cream sign element.
Resize 88%.
Paste as a new layer.

Use your selection tool to
select around the center of the sign.
Paste a paper of choice as a new layer.
Selections invert & press delete button.
Select none
Move the paper under the sign layer.

Open a canopy element.
Paste along the top of the sign layer.
Add a drop shadow to the canopy layer.
2,2,50,5 black.

Open a dripping chocolate element.
Resize 80% & 84% once each.
Paste on the bottom of the frame.
Make sure this layer is underneath
the previous layers.
You want to see dripping chocolate
from the bottom.

On your main tube, resize 80%.
Paste on the top layer of your tag.
Position on a side of choice.
Add the earlier drop shadow to the tube.

Erase the dripping chocolate
except for underneath the main tube.
We're going to animate this later.

Open an ice cream element.
Resize 50% twice.
Paste on opposite side of our tube.

Open a whip cream element.
Resize 50% & 60% once each.
Paste by the ice cream element.

Duplicate the sign layer twice.
Move to the bottom layer of the tag.
Move on side to the left slightly past
the original sign layer.
Duplicate this layer & mirror.
This should give the illusiong of a store front.

Resize all layers 88%.
Hide your dripping chocolate layer.
Merge visible the other layers.
Add artist copyright to your tag.

Now if you don't wish to animate,
you can save the tag now.
To animate, please continue below.

Open up animation shop.

Copy merged & paste as a new animation.
Now back in psp, move the chocolate down just
slightly with your move tool.

Copy merged & paste after current frame.
Repeat these steps 2 more times for a total
of 4 frames. You want the chocolate to move

down more slightly each time.

Now staying in AS,
select all frames.
Animation Frame properties -change to 25.
Select all -Copy & paste as new animation.

On the new animation, select all.
Animation -reverse frames.
Copy.

Back on the original animation, paste
after current frame.
Select all.
View animation.
If happy, save as gif.
