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.

Supplies Needed:

~Gimp (any version will do).

~Tube of choice. I used the artwork of Roman Zaric, you must have a license to use this art which you can get from PSP Tubes Emporium HERE.

~Minty Moment PTU scrapkit by A Taggers Scrap.

~Mask of choice. I used mask 19 which you can get from HorsePlay's Pasture HERE.

~Font of choice. I used Freebooter Script.

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 Frame 5 (square frame), I tilted the frame slightly using the Rotate Tool. Add drop shadow (Filters > Light & Shadow > Drop Shadow).

3. Open Paper 14 center it behind Frame 5, remove excess paper using a cutting tool or eraser.

4. Open Frame 11 (round frame), place it under Frame 5 & Paper 14 in your layer box. Add drop shadow.

5. Open tube, add drop shadow.

6. Open and place the following elements:

Flower scatter 2
Flower1
Flower6
Flower7
Greenery
Greenery2
Button
Brooch2
Mask
Lantern

Frog

~Some elements may need to be sized down. Using the Scale Tool in your tool box adjust pixels to desired size~

~Add drop shadow to all elements~

7. Open Paper 23

8. Open mask

9. Add mask to paper (click HERE for a tut on using masks).

10. Merge layers (Image > Merge Visible Layer).
