Let's Get Started


Open up the template and press Shift + D to duplicate it. Close the original

Highlight the "black rectangle" layer and go to SELECTIONS... SELECT ALL.. FLOAT .. DEFLOAT
Copy and paste paper 9 from the scrap kit as a new layer
Go to SELECTIONS... INVERT and hit delete to remove excess paper
Select None and delete the origianl "black rectangle"

Repeat these steps for both "pink rectangle" layers this time using Paper 15

Repeat these steps for Black Circle layer, but fill the selection with a dark green colour instead of paper

Repeat for Pink Circle, this time filling with red
Open holly border and copy/paste as a new layer
position along the top of the "black rectangle" layer (now filled with the red paper)
Drag this layer down until it is just above the rectangle layer
right click and duplicate this layer
Move the duplicate copy and position along the bottom of the rectangle.

REmove the "snowflake" layer
