Tut "Paradise"

For this tut you will need the following things:

The beautiful scrap kit from Scrappingmar called "Beach Paradise", is a PTU and you can purchase this scrap kit HERE.

The tube is from ©Keith Garvey, and you can purchase your tubes and licence number HERE.

Let's begin:

1.- Open a new raster layer of 500 x 500 pixels.

2.- First of all you are going to compose the picture, you can choice other elements than I choose, I used the following elements from the Mar's kit:

- Paper 8, resize to 15%.

- Cloud, element 36, resize to 15% or less and duplicate the layer.

- Baloon, element 72, resize to convenience.

- Element 11, resize to 15%. add drop shadow of choice.

- Elements 21 and 22, resize to 15% or less and put as you can see in my image. Copy and paste element 18 and resize to 15%.

- Element 19, 37,57, 75, 78, 12, 54, 58, 2 and 81, see my image for help, and put all them as you can see in my tag.

3.- Merge all visible layers and resize to 80%, go to your shapes tool, select rectangle, with white colour outside and none colour inside, size 10, and made a rectangle frame. Convert to raster layer, and merge all visible layers, you have now a picture layer, add some drop shadow of choice.

4.- Go to layers/duplicate once, and rotate free 10 degrees to the left, now put this layer below and rotate the other layer 5 degrees to the right, resize this layer to 90%.

5.- Copy and paste as new layer Paper 14, resize to 20%. And put this layer as background.

6.- Copy and paste as new layer element 5, resize to 40%, go to image/reflet, nd put this as you can see in my tag, with your magic wand select into the frame, go to selection/modify/expand 3, copy and paste as new layer Paper 2, resize this layer to 15%, go to selection/invert and then Edit/cut. Put this paper layer below the frame. Add drop shadow to the frame.

7.- Copy and paste as new layer the ©Keith Garvey tube, resize to 80%, reflet the image and with your eraser tool delete all what exceed the frame. Add drop shadow of choice.

8.- Now copy and paste as new layers some elements, I used elements 6, 52, 45 and 46. Resize to convenience. And add drop shadow. And put the layers as you can see in my image.

9.- Merge all visible layers, add your licence number and write your name with a font of choice. Add some special effects, I used blinds and drop shadow in the text.

10.- Save as png.

It's done.
