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).
 
~Serenity PTU scrapkit by Tasha's Playground which you can find HERE.

~Tube of choice. I used the artwork of Christina Lank, you must have a license to use this art which you can get from PSP Tube Stop HERE.

~Font of choice. I used Qwigley.

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 4 (rectangle frame), add drop shadow (Filters > Light & Shadow > Drop Shadow).

3. Open Paper 4 center it behind Frame 4, remove excess paper using a cutting tool or eraser.

4. Open Frame 3 (stick frame), place it under Frame 4 & Paper 4 in your layer box.

5. Open tube, add drop shadow.

6. Open and place the following elements:

Tree
Cattail 1
Waterfall
Grass 3
Stones
Rock
Flower 2
Flower 4
Shell 2
Log
Leaf
Lights

Butterfly
Deer

~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 (except Waterfall & Lights)~

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

8. Crop image (Image > Autocrop Image).

9. Scale image to desired size (Image > Scale Image).
