This tutorial was written using PSP X2. But any version should work.
 
You will need the following supplies to do this tutorial:
Some beach scrap kit and add on from Melissaz Creations which you can download from her blog~ HERE
Beach babe template #56, also from Melissaz Creations which you can download from her blog above.
WSL mask 181 which you can download fromWeescotslass Creations~ HERE
Tube of choice. I used the awsome work of Elias Chatzoudis, which you MUST have a license to use.
You can get a license and purchase his tubes from MPT HERE
Filters Needed~
Eye Candy 4000 (glass)
Tramages(pool shadow)
 
Ok, Let's get started!
Open your template up. X out copyright layer.
 
Click on Raster 4 layer. Selections, select all, float, defloat.
Select a paper from kit. I used Raster 13 from kit.
Copy and paste paper as new layer
Selections invert, hit delete on keyboard, Selections, none.
Delete original layer.
 
Now select Raster 5 of template
Selections, select all, float, defloat, and select another paper from kit.
I used raster 14.
 Copy and paste as new layer, Selections, invert, hit delete.
 
Go to the next rectangle layer in template and repeat the process using the same paper you just used..
Repeat the same steps as above with the last 2 rectangle layers using paper or color of choice.
Ok, now click on the top rectangle layer, go to layers, merge down.
And merge down until you have all of the rectangles on one layer.
Now still on rectangle layer, go to Effects, Tramages, Pool Shadow, and apply using default settings. Add drop shadow of choice.
Select your Beach word art layer, and again, Selections, select all, float, defloat, and copy and paste paper of choice.
I used Raster 16 from the kit.
Selections, invert, hit delete, and delete orriginal layer.
Add drop shadow of choice.
Select Babe word art layer, and again, Selections, select all, float, defloat, only go to layers and add new raster layer, flood fill this layer with color of choice to match your tube. Selections none, delete orriginal layer.
Now go to Effects, Eye Candy 4000, glass, from setting's choose snow and hit ok.
Click on raster layer 1, and make sure to send to the bottom, flood fill white.
Ok, now open your tube and paste as new layer, position to your liking and add a drop shadow of choice.
Now click back on your white background, and add new raster layer. Flood fill this with color of choice. I made a gradient using a yellow and a dark orange, so that the mask kind of looks like the sun in the background.
Open your mask, go to layers, new mask layer, and select your mask from drop down menu, ok.
Add any embelishments from your scrap kit you want to add now.
Now go ahead and delete the white layer.
Select the color layer you used for your mask.

And your all done!
