Wow - everyone has such great suggestions! Chat Icon

I think I am going to try all the different versions and then order each one to see it in person...might as well since I have so much time, right?

Sure...but I will be the first to admit that since this is all so new...it might not be the best way...it might not even be right.

I opened a new file using the 5x7 default size with black background.

I changed the background to the greenish color.

I added everything you see layer by layer. For the picture I followed directions posted on LIW by CaMacho

For the words - it's two layers of words one on top of the other - same with the tree under the poem

Got the border from a pic online and just made it bigger

Selected the entire thing with the rectangle lasso and flattened.

If you want more detail let me know...I'll try my best to explain.

Re: My first attempt at Lucas' Christmas Card

Is this an online program or is it on your computer..?
