Onto the tut.......

Open a new image 650x650-You can resize later-flood fill with white.

Open the wreath from the kit,resize by 55% and place in the middle of your canvas.

Add a drop shadow-i use 2,2 50 5,and go to adjust brightness and contrast,and choose clarify.

Change the strength to 5 and hit ok.

Open paper 6 from the kit and resize by 55%,and paste as a new layer.Drag this paper under the 

wreath then use your lasso tool to remove any overhanging parts.Repeat the clarify steps as above

on the paper.I darkened this paper a little to match the tube.

Open flowerswag and resize by 50%,and place at the bottom left of the wreath.

Use your deform tool so the flowerswag points upwards towards the top of the wreath.

Apply a drop shadow and sharpen.

Now duplicate the flowerswag,and image flip,image mirror,and place at the top right hand of the frame.

Paste in your tube now,so it`s easier to build the frame around it.

Duplicate the tube,and drag the duplicate under the wreath,using your eraser tool

 remove any overhanging parts on the original layer,

add a small drop shadow and sharpen if needed.

Open bird2 and resize by 20%,image mirror and place on the top left of the frame,sitting on top of the 

blue flower.

Click on the white background layer,and paste the clusterframe element as a new layer.Resize by

about 80%,and position at the top left of the frame.Position to your liking,

and add a drop shadow and sharpen.

Again,use your lasso tool to remove any parts you don`t want.

Open the window element,and resize by 40%,then paste onto your canvas.Drag it below the frame,

and place on the top of the frame,next to the bird2.Drop shadow and sharpen.

Open lightpost and resize by 50%,place at the top left of the frame.Place in front of the window.

Add a small drop shadow,and use the brightness and contrast clarify settings you used earlier.

Use your lasso tool to get rid of the bottom of the lightpost.

Now add leaf*,resize by 20%,and rotate it 90% to the left,and place next to the lightpost.

Open the frame element,the one with the blue bow,resize by 50% abd place at the bottom right of the 

original frame,add a drop shadow and sharpen.

Open trunk,resize by 25% and place in front of the small frame.Use your deform tool to make it sit straight,

then open the key element,

resize by 10% and place next to the trunk.Add a drop shadow and sharpen.

Open flowerleaf*,resize by 20%,and place ,to the left of the trunk and behind it.Sharpen.

Open stars element,and click on the paper inside your frame,and paste the stars as a new layer.

Place where you like it,and duplicate and flip.

Now add anything else you like around the frame,add any wordart or sparkles etc

then add your name.

I used a gold gradient for the stroke,and a dark green from my tube for the fill,

I used an inner bevel and added a small gradient glow.

Add your copyrights,and delete the white background,merge all layers,and save as a png.

That`s it you are done!

I hope you enjoyed my tutorial :)
