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).

 ~ Those Spring Days PTU scrapkit by Tasha's Playground.

~Tube of choice. I used the artwork of Anna Liwanag, you must have a license to use this art which you can now get from CDO HERE.

~Font of choice. I used Napoleon Light.

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

3. Open Paper 9 center it behind Frame 5, remove excess paper using a cutting tool or eraser.

4. Open Frame 4 (round frame), place it over Frame 5 & Paper 9 in your layer box. Add drop shadow.

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

7. Open and place the following elements:

Leaf
Leaves 2
Flowers 1
Flower 6
Puddles
Grass Mound
Rain
Ball
Flower Pot
Froggie
Rain Boots
Watering Can
Cup
Bird

~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 Puddle, Grass Mound & Rain)~

8. Open Frame 3, place it under all other elements in your Layer box. This will give the look of using a mask. 

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

10. Crop image (Image > Autocrop Image).

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

12. Add copyright info and name.

13. Save as .png
