Let’s Begin

I like to work on a big surface and then resize later, so open up a new canvas 700x700 and flood fill with white.

Open up Frame 2, copy and paste onto your canvas. Resize 110%.
Take your magic wand and holding down the shift button click inside the frame, including in all the little open spaces around the flowers. This will allow you to get the whole frame covered.
Copy and Paste paper 1, selections, invert, delete key, select none. Put the paper layer below the frame.

Open up tube and resize 110%. Click on the frame layer again and use the magic wand as before where you think you are going to place the tube. Copy and paste tube and place it where desired. Duplicate tube. Close out the duplicate and click back on the original. Do not move either tube layer. Selections, invert, delete, select none. Place this tube layer under the frame layer. Add drop shadow. Open up the duplicate tube layer. Add drop shadow on this tube, then erase the parts that you don’t want on top of the frame.

Now we are going to add the elements. Open up Button 1 (yellow button) and resize to 75%, duplicate twice. Move buttons to desired positions, add drop shadow. Open Flower 1, resize to 25% and place above the buttons. Open up Ginger 1, resize to 75% and place under the buttons where desired. Erase stem showing below buttons, if desired. Open up Heliconia, place below buttons, rotate as desired, and erase stem below buttons if desired. Drop shadow all.

Open Flower Stem. Mirror and place on the right side with the other flowers from the frame, place as desired. Move below frame, duplicate, move duplicate layer above frame. Erase excess on top layer to your liking. Add drop shadows.

Open Ribbon 3, duplicate and mirror duplicate layer. Place both layers at bottom of frame and below frame. Add drop shadows.

Open up Pixie Dust Trail. Place below frame but above paper layer, so the stars show behind your tube layer. Duplicate and position to your liking. I didn’t drop shadow my pixie dust but you may if desired.

Add copyright info and license.

Add your name or saying.

We are finished. I hope that you liked this tut. Thanks.
