I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas

If you want to make this tut you will need, 6 papers of choice, three of bright colours, and three of pastels colours.

One tube of choice, I used the beautiful art of Suzanne Woolcott©, you can purchase a licence on http://www.gorjussart.com/

The template is # 117 of Designs by Ali, and you can find it HERE

The scrap kit I used is called "DoodleAXmas" from Irene Alexeeva, and you can find it HERE

The other supplies: Masks, snow and wordart, you can Download HERE.

Let's begin:

1) Open a new layer of 600 x 600, transparent.

2) Select one paper with a pastel colour, copy and paste as new layer. Select Masks/ from an image, and select the mask # 1, apply the mask. Then go to mask/delete mask and merge with the layer.

3) Select other paper with pastel colour, and do the same as before, but now with the mask # 2

4) Open the template # 117 from Designs by Ali, select the three rectangle of right side, one by one, copy and paste as new layer in your image, select the rectangle, open a paper with a bright colour, paste as new layer, select/invert, and then delete, do this with the three rectangles, in different colours.

5) Select the charmed clip, on the template, copy and paste, on your image simluate the engagement of the three rectangles.
