Spring Spirit


I don't know about the rest of yas but myself.... I am so READY for spring!!
So, I have decided to do a spring tutorial now!!

Supplies Needed:
Scrap kit called Spring Spirit from Bluedream Designs, you can find it here
Tube of choice, I am using one from Ismael Rac, you can find it here
Mask WSL_208 from Missy here
My supplies here

Let's get started!

Open a new image 700 x 700 with a white background to give us some working space, you can always crop later.

Open frame1, resize by 80 percent, paste as a new layer.

On your frame layer take your magic wand and click inside it, go to selections - modify by 5.

Open a paper of your choice and paste as a new layer below your frame layer, go to selection - invert, hit delete on your keyboard.

Apply a drop shadow to your frame.

Copy and paste a paper of your choice above your white background layer, I used BD-paper6 and resized it by 110 percent. Apply the mask to this layer, merge group.

Open and paste your tube as a new layer above your frame, delete anything overlapping the frame. Add a drop shadow to this layer.

Open and paste BD wrap5 as a new layer, position at the bottom of the frame. Take your freehand tool and select anything that goes past the frame. Apply a drop shadow.

Open leaves, resize by 40 percent, rotate free left, copy and paste as a new layer. Position below the flower layer. Apply a drop shadow, duplicate and flip and position at the bottom of the flowers.

Open BVS flower 02 and resize by 50 percent, paste as a new layer at the bottom of your frame, see my tag for reference if needed. Apply a drop shadow.

Open BVS flower 01 and resize by 40 percent, paste as a new layer at the bottom of your frame, see my tag for reference if needed. Apply a drop shadow.

Open leaves again and resize to your liking, place around the bottom of the flowers you just added, apply a drop shadow.

Open word charm and resize to your liking, paste as a new layer and move to the top right, see my tag for refernce if needed. Apply drop shadow.

Open BD butterfly, resize by 50 percent then by 50 percent again. Paste as a new layer and move to the left of your tube, apply a drop shadow. Duplicate if liked and position to your liking.

Open and paste glitter as a new layer above your mask layer, you may colorize this to match your tube. Apply a drop shadow.

Add copyrights and your name.

Crop and resize if needed.

Save as a PNG.

You are all finished!
