Remember To Save Often!!

Lets Prepare The Image For Framing

1. Open a new image 500x500 transparent. Choose 2 colors from your tube. foreground #edeff8 (you will have to choose different colors if you are using a different tube) and a dark color for the background #6e7f9c.

2. Flood fill your image with your foreground color #edeff8, Effects-plugins-Filters Unlimited 2-Paper texture 1-Japanese, Intensity=35, lightness=130. If you are using a different tube you can colorize the supplied tile. Name this layer Background.

3. Open the rose bouquet tube and copy it. Go back to your working image and paste as a new layer then lower the opacity to 40 on the layer palette. Name this layer rose bouquet.

4. Open the childandunicorn tube and copy it. Go back to your working image and paste as a new layer. Effects-3D-Drop Shadow= Vertical=5, Horizontal=5, Opacity=50, Blur =15.00 Color #72839f (different if using your own tube file). Name this layer unicorn.

5. Open dbaw_goldoval1 and copy it. Go back to your working image and paste it as a new layer. Effects-3D-Drop Shadow= Vertical=3, Horizontal=3, Opacity=100, Blur=5.00 color #72839f. Name this layer inside oval.

6. Open dbaw_gold oval2 and copy it. Back on your working image paste as a new layer. Apply the same drop shadow as in Step #5. Name this layer outer oval.

7. Open dbaw_blueroses or other tube to accent the gold ovals and copy the image, back on your working layer paste as a new layer and move it to the top center of the gold ovals. No need for a drop shadow as this image already has it saved when I saved the roses. Name this layer roses top

8. On your layer palette duplicate the blue roses then go to Image-flip. Name this layer roses bottom.

9. Now go to your unicorn layer and drag it between the inner oval and the outer oval layers and move it down using your mover tool to where the wings are just over top of the inner oval. See My Image Below.
