Open both your template and
your image in PSP. Press shift and D to
make an exact copy of each and close out
the originals. We are first going to go
to our image and pick a color from it.
Click on your color palette and use the
dropper to pick a color. Remember the
hue and sat numbers. For myself I'm
taking the red from her skirt as you can see
in the image below.

Minimize your image and
bring up your template. Now make sure
you have your layer palette open. You'll
notice that the image is in shades of grey so
it makes colorizing it very easy. Click
on Paper 1 and then go up to Colors/Colorize
and plug in your Hue number and your Sat
(Saturation) number. Now I for one have
found that the sat number might have to be
adjusted. For this first layer I used
Hue 245 and Sat of 150
|
Now click on Paper 2 on the
layer palette and repeat. For this one
though I lowered the Saturation number down to
100 but kept the hue the same. So right
now my image looks like this:
|
Now the next will be photo
1 on the layer. For this you will just
be changing the frame part of the photo. The
white part will stay white. To add some
variety I changed the Hue to 150 and the Sat
to 150 as well. So that our frames are blue
instead of just red.
|
Now click on the layer that
says Ribbon and colorize but back to using the
Hue of 245 and Sat of 100. On the next layer,
the slider you can use the same or switch to
the 150 and 150. I did the switch but
either works nice. So here is how it
should look at this point.

Now you may want to save
were you are at before we go on to the next
step. Adding your images :).
