This tutorial was written using PSP9,but should work using any version.
It is written assuming you have a basic knowledge of PSP and its tools.
You will need A tube,font and mask of choice. You will also need a scrap kit
of choice. I used  Love and Passion by PspGirl. This is a wonderful kit!

6.Paste your tube as a new layer below your frame layer.

Draw a slection around her face and make sure to get
all her hair.

7.Promote the selection to layer and select none.
Move the promoted layer above the frame layer
and on the tube layer add your shadow.
Now you will need to take your eraser tool

the part of the tube below the frame.


8.Open One of the heart elements (I used element 56)

Resize and position it as desired.
When you are pleased with the placement.
Take your selection tool and select the
bottom half ot the arrow.Promote selection to layer.
Go back to the arrow layer and hit delete on your keyboard.
Now drag the promoted layer below the heart
layer so it looks like the arrow is going through the heart.
Sharpen both layers and add a drop shadow to both layers.

10.Add more elements now if you would like.

(Or use the word art provided)
