Let's Begin
900 X 900
1.) Garden Vignette--Copy and Paste = C&P -- new Raster Layer = NRL-- place it on the center right of tag..DS & tag reference = TR
2.)  Sidewalk -- C&P as NRL--Resize = R = 80%- till it fits around the bench--DS--TR-use your deform tool till you have it around the bench.
3.) Tube-w/easel-- R = if needed  = 50% X2--sharpen -unsharp mask = USM--DS--TR--C&P as NRL--place on bottom left side.

9.) Sign - R = 60% & 80-- USM-- C&P as NRL-- Place on right side--move below the bench layer-- DS -- TR
10.) Now we are going to make the flowers on the stim..--open a new canvas 600X600
stim-  C&P as NRL- Flower 9 - R = 50% and 80% X 2-USM--DS --duplicate = dup.--R = 80% X2-sharpen-move this one below the top-- dup. - R = 80% -- place on the bottom-- close out - if you want more than 1 flower-- just repeat # 10--until you have as many flowers as you wish, I did all the flowers..
11.)  Flowers 1-10--R = 50% only--sharpen- and DS-- TR\
12. )  Deco 4 --R = 50% --USM--C&P as NRL --place on top of stem -- Dup.--R = 80% --free rotate--right 20 - place this one on stem-- dup. -- R = 80 -- free rotate--right 20%.
13.) Repeat the above for Deco's 1-3-- TR
14.)When you are done adding all your flowers and Deco's--merge down till you just have 1 layer per flowers and decos--
15.) Now just Copy merged and place them where ever you choose, I placed mine behind the Bench..DS-- TR
16.) Water Can --R = 50% --USM--C&P as NRL --Place on the grass--DS--TR
17.) Hummingbird 3 -- R = 50% -- USM--C&P as NRL -- place upper right side --- DS --TR

19.) Hummingbird 1 -- R = 50% -- USM--C&P as NRL --Place upper left side--DS--TR
20.)  Butterfly 8--R = 50% & 80 % --USM--C&P as NRL -- place on bottom right--DS--TR
21.) Repeat #20. for Butterflys 6 & 7-- place them in front,or wherever you wish.-- DS--TR
22.) Butterfly 5 -- R = 50% & 80% --  USM--C&P as NRL -- free rotate--right 25--DS--TR
23.) Butterfly's 1-4-- Repeat # 22 -- with the same settings --except for rotating
24.)  #4 - Free rotate --= left 25
25.)  # 3 -- free rotate -- right 25
26.) #2-- free rotate -- left 25
27.) #1 -- free rotate -- right 25//
when happy with everything, merge visible all layers-- R= 56% -- sharpen-- Now add All Copy right Info -- and Name==then save as PNG
I hope you had fun doing my tut.. would really like to see what you've done..

22.)  Merge down -background with dark water-- rename bottom. Close bottom and tube layers-Merge Visible -- fish layers--rename--top-now you should have 3 layers.
23.) EL 22 - R = 50% -Usm--C&P as NRL-- place on left - dup.--mirror - R = 80% --place on right--dup.-R = 80% -sharpen--place in center--now Merge down to fish.
24.) R= all layers 56%-sharpen - Sparkle 2 =-C&P as NRL-- place below the fish layer --place on top--
25.) Add All Copy right info.-- if you don't want to animate- go ahead and merge visible all layers, add your name and save as PNG.
Let's animate
Close out all layers but bottom layer -- open animation shop--
26.) copy merged-- and place as new animation-- dup. the same  # of bubbles--  on bubbles-- click on the first frame--edit -select all - copy and paste  into selected frame--continue to copy and paste - place them around to make tag look good.. once happy go back to PSP.
27.) PSP- close out background==open all other layers and Merge Visible-- copy merged -- in animation shop ---edit -select all- working on your frames--Propagate paste- paste into selected frame- once you are done you should have a total of 6 frames-- go to edit-select all and go to animation and then Frame properties --place it at 15-- when happy view and then save as GIF..
Thank you for taking the time in following me, I hope you like this tut, and please fill free and send me your tags, I would love to see what people have made.

Drop Shadow = DS = 2,2,50,5 blank
Filter-- Mura's Meister --- copies
Let's Begin
900 X 900
1.) Swim 2-Resize = R = 50% and 100% X3--sharpen = Un-sharp mask = USM- Copy and Paste = C&P as New Raster Layer = NRL-place in center of canvas, You can change the suit's if you wish..
2.) Mura's Meister -- go to copies-Encircle--default settings : circle-(tile mode) Behind--12,50,50,0,100,-25,100,0,100,o/,0,30/,0 (the ones with /,those are the ones lightened) EX1 & EX.2
 3.) Tube-R-if needed-C&P as NRL- (sharpen if you resized)--now duplicate-blur-gaussian-6--blend mode=hard light--opacity=80- Merge down=MD -DS- Tag Reference = TR
4.) Picnic Bag --R = 56% X 2--USM.---C&P as NRL- mirror and place--on bottom right.-DS--TR
5.) Swim R = 30% & 50% --USM.---C&P as NRL-  Place on bottom left corner--TR &DS
6.) Swim Bed 1 -R = 20% & 60%--USM.---C&P as NRL- (EX.3)- On pool-(EX.4) dup. bed--close out the original-with freehan selction tool-these settings: point to point-add shift-Feather=1 - smoothing=0 -anti-alias-checked-open original and do the same-once done,where it looks like the bed is coming out of the pool--DS,on bottom bed-merge down with pool.
7.) Swirl 1-- Open it up as new raster layer--(you are going to re-color- it, the next ( EX.5- EX.8,)so I wont go into it,just follow the examples.) Use a nice color from tube...mostly the light color
Now R = 48% & 35%  USM.---C&P as NRL- place this one on upper left side--DS--TR--now dup.-mirror and place this one right above the bottom layer. TR
8.) Flip Flops--R = 20%  USM.---C&P as NRL- Place it on the bottom in the middle- DS--dup. and mirror--MD--TR

 9.) Swim 2 = R = 50% X2 --USM.---C&P as NRL-DS--move below tube layer--Rename  Sw1
 10.) Ribbon 1-R = 20%--USM.---C&P as NRL-Move it to the upper left side,on top of the swirl--dup..R = 80%--mirror--Place right over Swim2--rename A1--TR 
11.) Bubbles 1 =R=30%--USM.---C&P as NRL-Place on left center--DS--TR--dup. R = 80% - move this one down a little--TR
12.) Now if you don't want to animate--go ahead and open bottom layer and then Merge Visible= MV---Resize 56% sharpen--
Add ALL copy rights and name--then save as PNG--
If you want to animate then continue..
Open Animation shop
13.) Close out all layers Below tube -- then MV-- re-name- top
B.) close out A1 and Sw1--MV all layers below--re-name bottom
C.) Sharpen all 3 layers--and add ALL CopyRights and MD to top layer.
14.) Dup. Sw1 2X=3 layers--close out top 2, we're going to add noise first..Rename layers--Sw2 and Sw3
on Sw1-add/remove noise--add noise--Gaussian-30--monochrome checked-close open Sw2- change 30 to 40 and hit Ok--repeat this for Sw3 change 40 - 50--close and open Sw2- we don't need to change Sw1
15.) working with Sw2- free rotate 25-- (EX.9) you want to even them out,like in the EX.--close out
16.)  open Sw3--repeat rotate but change it to Right 25--as in EX. 10- even them out..close out..now open Sw1- make sure your on that layer in layers pallete- Now Copy Merged = CM--and paste into animation shop as New animation--
17.) back in PSP--close Sw1-open Sw2- make sure your on layer 2
CM and paste after current frame= back in PSP--
Close Sw2 and open Sw1-make sure your on that layer
18.) CM -and paste after current frame close Sw1 and open Sw3-make sure your on that layer
19.) CM and paste after current frame-- you should now have 4 frames--
20.) Now go to Edit- select all- animation-animation properties--opaque and change it to white
21.) now with all layers still checked you want to change your frame properties--go to frame properties and change it to 25, now you should have all 4 frames running at 25.. once happy-- view--and then save as gif..
I sure hope you had fun with this tut..like everyone has ever said, this is just a tut on how I did this, you make it yours..As always I sure would love to see what you did..
