Font of choice
Mask of choice - mine is by Vix and you can get it here on her site the one I used is Mask350.
Eye Candy 4000 - Gradient Glow
A kit of choice I am using a gorgeous kit by Foxy Designs called Braylin which you can purchase over at here store here.
Ready?
Let's get started!
Open up a new canvas 700x700 we can always re-size/crop it later.
Open up element 6 from the kit and take your magic wand click inside the squares of the frame then go to selections-modify-expand by 3 then with a paper of choice I used paper 9 from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer, then go to selections-invert and hit delete. Move this layer BELOW the frame layer and select none.
Open up element 11 from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer on your canvas, re-size it so it fits nicely on the frame. Then open up the bird element from the kit copy and paste that as a new layer, re-size it so it fits nicely on the birdhouse to make it look like it is resting there.
Open up element 9 from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer move it to the top part of your frame and re-size it so it fits there nicely, of course making sure its behind the birdhouse layer.
Open up element 30 from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer re-size it so it fits nicely and move it to the corner of the frame. Duplicate this layer and move it to the other corner of the frame.
Add a new raster layer move it all the way to the bottom of your palette and flood fill with a color from your tube then add your mask.
Copy and paste your tube arrange to your liking and add a drop shadow, my setting shown in the screen-shot below.
Add your name in a font of choice and a gradient glow, my setting shown in the screen-shot below, add the same drop shadow shown in the screen-shot above.
Finally add your copyright and license number if applicable save as png or jpeg whichever you prefer and we're done!
I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and found it easy to follow.
