SUMMERTIME FUN TUT

Supplies :

A Dean Yeagle tube. Dean sells at CDO and can be found  HERE

Belinda's Summertime Fun Scrap Kit which is on Creative Addictions Blog and can be found  HERE

I used Big Easy font for the name and it can be found  HERE

No outside Filters were used.

Open new image 650 x 650 and floodfill with white (easier to see with a white bkgrnd)
Open frame 7 and copy, paste as new layer and resize 85%
Open frame 6 copy, paste as new layer under frame 7 resize 95%
Open Frame 5 copy/paste as new layer under frame 6.
Merge frames.
Duplicate the merged frame layer, move below original merged frames. Adjust Blur Gaussian Blur at 20
Magic wand click inside the original merged frame layer and expand by 5. New raster layer and copy, paste Paper 11 into selection.
Open up Water and paste as a new layer. Move down inside the frame until the top is just below centre and promote selection to layer. Deselect and delete the original water layer.
Open Bubbles and copy/paste as new layer.
Open Beach Sign and copy/paste as new layer (above frame layers). Resize 80% and rotate left 10. Move to top left of frame.
Open Dolphin and copy/paste as new layer. Resize 35% and move over the water layer on the left.
Copy your tube (I used the larger of the 2) and paste. Move over to the right of the frame.
One of my pet dislikes is seeing the cutoff bottom of a tube. So to rememdy this I copied pasted the Innertube, resized by 80% and moved it down to the bottom of my tube. (like it is around her thighs). Duplicate the Innertube and move the duplicated layer below your tube. Go back to the Innertube layer thats above your tube and erase the upper section. Wallah! the tube now doesn't have that awful straight cutoff.
Open Beach Ball, copy/paste as new layer. Resize 50% and move to left side of Innertube.
Open Crab, copy/paste as new layer. Resize 50% and move to the bottom over the Innertube and Beach Ball.
Open BubbleWand, copy/paste as new layer. Resize 50% and move below Crab layer. Image rotate left 15 and move the BubbleWand as if the Crab is holding it.
Open Firefly, copy/paste as new layer and resize 10%. Image rotate 20 degrees left and move over to the right hand side of the frame. Duplicate the Firefly and mirror. Move this duplicate up and cover the shell on the To Beach Sign.
Open Flip Flop Left, copy/paste as new layer. Resize 40% Image free rotate 90 degrees left and move down bottom left, behind the Beach Ball, move layer below Beach Ball layer.
Open Flip Flop Right, copy/paste as new layer. Resize 40% and move down behind Flip Flop Left, move layer below Flip Flop Left layer.

Now is the time to drop shadow all elements EXCEPT the frame, the blurred frame and the Upper Innertube (the erased one)
Dropshadow using  H 2, V 2, Opacity 35, Blur 10, colour black
Add your name and the © Copyright. I used Big Easy font in color #ffce26 size 36. I rotated the name left 10 degrees and placed it on the Innertube. I then drop shadowed.
Hide the white background and crop to Merged Opaque. Save as a png.
