For this tutorial im using the beautiful art of Rebecca Sinz.You need a licence to use her art,
you can get one and purchase her tubes from Dreamscape Imaging
Now at *Digital Chaos*
The scrap kit i used is a lovely ftu kit called Twisted Vines from Amanda Kelleher
I used a mask from WitchysHeart,Mask24
Alpha i found at Nothing but Freebies here
Onto the tut.........
Open a new image 700x700 and flood fill white.You can resize later.
Add a new layer and go to selections,select all,and paste paper 31 from the kit into selection.Deselect.
Find your mask24,layers,new mask layer,click ok and merge group.
Open the wooden frame,element 22,and resize it up to about 120%,and past onto your working canvas,
Place it slightly to the left so the path in the woods part of the mask shows through.
Add a drop shadow,i use 3,3, 35 6 and sharpen.
Now paste in your tube.Place it to the left of the frame,and duplicate.drag the duplicate under the frame,then on the original layer,
use your eraser tool to get rid any parts overhanging the frame.
Paste element 3 onto the canvas,and go to image rotate,and rotate it by 90% to the left.Then image mirror,resize by 70%
and place on the left hand side of the frame.Sharpen and drop shadow.Duplicate it and mirror again and paste to the right.
Paste element2 onto the frame,and place at the top.Add another drop shadow if you like.
Now choose some of the pretty leaves from the kit,and place around the bottom left of the frame.
You can resize them by about 30% and some by 25%,and duplicate and mirror some of them too.
Remember to add a drop shadow and sharpen each one so they stand out more.
I added element 8,the feather too and placed that to the bottom right of the frame,and arranged some leaves around it.
You can also add some of the flowers too,and arrange them betwen the leaves.
Paste elements 6 and 7 onto the canvas,the butterflys and resize and place them where you like around the frame.
Now add your name using a font or the alpha and arrange some more leaves & flowers around it.
Now add your copyrights,delete the white background and merge all layers.Save as a png.
And that`s it you are done!
I hope you enjoyed my tutorial :)
