This tutorial is of my own creation and any resemblance to any other tuts is purely coincidental. This tutorial is for personal use only, using it for monetary gain is against our TOU's. ~Gimp (any version will do). ~Do You Believe PTU scrapkit which you can get from Creative Intentionz HERE. ~Tube of choice. I used the artwork of Tyson McAdoo, you must have a license to use this art which you can get HERE. ~Template of choice. I used temp 201 from Blissfully Beth which you can get HERE. ~Mask of choice. I used WSL mask 302 which you can get HERE. ~Font of choice. I used Creative Power. Let's get started!!! 1. Open a new layer ( I prefer a large canvas, so I make mine 1050x656). Make your canvas transparent (Layer > Transparency > Color to Alpha). 2. Open template in PSD format, move layers of template around until they are the way you like them. ~Add paper from scrapkit to individual layers of the template (Right click on layer in layer box > Alpha to Selection > CTRL I > Select paper layer in layer box > Delete). These are the papers I used: Paper 1 Paper 2 Paper 9 Paper 11 Paper 13 ~I added noise to some of the template layers to make them look glittery (Filters > Noise > RGB Noise). ~I colorized some of the template layers to better match the scrapkit (Colors > Colorize > play with the setting until you get the desired color). ~Add drop shadow to template layers (Filters > Light & Shadow > Drop Shadow). 3. Open tube, add drop shadow. 4. Open and place the following elements: Candy Cane Penguin 1 Poinsettia 1 Present 3 (the above embellishment is mislabled, it's actually the yellow poinsettia) Bell 1 Bell 2 Decoration 1 Holly 1 Holly 2 ~Some of the elements may need to be sized down. Using your scale tool in your tool box adjust the pixel size until element is the correct size~ ~Add drop shadow to all elements~ 4. Open Paper 6 5. Open mask 6. Add mask to paper (click HERE for a tut on using masks) 7. Merge Layers (Image > Merge Visible Layers). 8. Crop Image (Image > Autocrop Image). 9. Scale image to desired size (Image > Scale Image). 10. Add copyright info and name 11. Save as .png YOU ARE ALL DONE!!!!!!!!!!
