Last tutorial of 2016! --Dark Winter

This is my last tutorial of 2016. 

I know I haven't posted a lot, but I hope 2017 will be better

in the tutorial writing and posting area for me.

So on that note, here ya go! 

The above tag is made by using the materials below:

Tube by Julia fox found at Pics For Design.   

Mask  #4  HERE .

Gothic Winter Scrapkit  By Gimpnastic Scraps HERE.

Font of choice.

New Image 600x600 Transparent.

Select all - Add a new layer and copy and paste paper 4 into selection. 

Add your mask, merge, merge group.

Copy and paste Frame 2 onto your canvas, and copy and paste Element 21 and move near bottom of frame layer. Duplicate and mirror.

Copy and paste Element 5 and resize it to 25%. Add Drop shadow.

Move it over to one side, duplicate it and mirror. I duplicated it a couple of more times. 

Find a tree of choice and copy and paste it just below the frame. Resize it to 

fit your tag. Duplicate it a time or two and move the trees to your desired locations.

Copy and paste Element 28 onto your canvas. Resize it to just fit below the frame layer.

If you need to, duplicate it and arrange it so it

covers the frame layer. 

El21, Duplicate and mirror.

Element 7  Resized to 30%. Duplicate.

Now, copy and paste your.

Wordart from kit or word art of choice.

Add your watermark if you wish, and make 

sure you add the copyright for the image you used.

Add your name or name(s) of whoever you want. 

For my name, I duplicated the layer and on the 

bottom layer added a white Fat Gradient glow.

I also added a drop shadow of 1, -1, 5, 0.
