I dowloaded the free 30 day trial of PhotoImpact 10 that was mentioned earlier.
I started with a regular 8 1/2 x 10 new image with a white background.
Chose a background color and and did a bucket fill of the page.
The I used the "photo frame gallery"and chose a shape I liked. (This took trial and error) and when you pull the fame off it leaves a blank area where it was.
I added fireworks by choosing the ones I liked from the "Creative Lighting Gallery"
Then I added a picture of the castle I found by doing a google search. There are a ton of them out there to choose from. (To get rid of white backgrounds on the clip art use the "object magic erase tool" )
I added Tinkerbell again I found her on a search.
Then the princesses.
Added text, experimented with fonts and colors.
It just takes some time fooling around and alot of using the edit - undo feature!
Now I just have to find someone with a printer that does better picture quality then mine!
I can't begin to be as good at this as Midnite! But it makes me feel good that I made this and it look decent.
Ps. I'd be happy to email you a copy without my text on it.
