I'm using Items from Butterfly Flutterby Creations Thank you soooo much Butters for allowing me to use your awesome creations in my tutorial!! :-) Her mask : BflyFlbyMask4 ( You'll have to scroll back some pages to find the masks.

Open your ButterflyFlutterby Halloween Template1 and hit SHIFT +D to duplicate the template. Close out your original for future uses. Now.. Delete the top layer (©) And the Bottom layer ( background) .

Locate your BflFlby Mask4 and click OK Delete the mask layer YES and Merge Group. Next layer going UP is "Shape" layer... make that layer active Selections > ALL Selections > FLOAT Selections > DEFLOAT Selections > MODIFY > SMOOTH both set to 10 Selections > MODIFY>EXPAND by 1 Copy /Paste a paper of choice Selections > Invert Hit the DELETE key on your Keyboard and Selections > NONE Drop Shadow of choice. Next layer up is "Dotted Lines" I used a Gradient Glow with a color from my tube... you can either use a gradient glow... or a Drop shadow of choice using any color EXCEPT black. Next layer up is " Rectangles"... Grab your magic wand and click on the DARK GREY border of the rectangle/squares.

Thin/medium white glow and again using a color from my tube a little thicker. Give all layers a DropShadow of choice. Add your Main Tube and DropShadow of Choice.
