Open the template, delete the top five layers, go the white background and Image > Canvas Size, 800 x 800> Ok. Flood-fill the white background to fill the area and rename your design.

Merge layers 7 & 8 into one layer; replace with Pixelily paper 9 after a 30% resize. (Drop shadow by 6-8-0-6-20; mirror, flip and do it again. Place layer back in starting position.)

Open Aprilisa paper 6, resize by 30% and replace layer 11. (Drop shadow by 5-2-0-5-20; mirror, flip and do it again. Place layer back in starting position.)

Open Aprilisa paper 7, resize by 30% and replace layer 6. (Drop shadow by 5-2-0-5-20; mirror, flip and do it again. Place layer back in starting position.)

Merge layers 3 and 4 into one layer; open Pixelily paper 2, resize by 30% and replace this layer. Keep layer 5. (Drop shadow by 12-8-0-12-20; mirror, flip and do it again. Place layer back in starting position.)

Open Pixelily paper 12, resize by 25% and replace layer 10. (Drop shadow by 5-8-0-5-20; mirror, flip and do it again. Place layer back in starting position.)

Open Aprillisa paper 3, resize by 25%, add a PDN glow of 2/-82/10, and then use this to replace layer 9. (Drop shadow by 6-8-0-6-20; mirror, flip and do it again. Place layer back in starting position.)

Open Aprilias paper 9, resize by 25% and add a PDN glow of 6/-100/10. Open the mask of choice, apply it to the paper and then invert the colour on your white background to see it. It should be centered.

Open Aprilisa snowflake 2 and add one upper and lower, DS to your liking. Open the Aprilisa snowman, resize by 30% and add to the left of your design.

Open Pixelily deer, resize by 25% and add below the snowman layer. Open Aprilisa wordstrip 2, resize by 30% and add to the right of the design UNDER the deer.

Open Aprilisa evergreen, resize by 20% and add above the paper 2 layer (upper and lower). Open the Pixelily pine cone, resize by 23% and add above the lower evergreen leaves (drop shadow now); duplicate and the position over the other leaf layer with mirror and flip.

Open Aprilisa flower 4, resize by 20% and add above all template layers. Open Pixelily flower 1, resize by 20%, add a PDN glow of 2/0/10 and then add near the pine cone layers.

Open Pixelily magic lights, resize by 23% and add above all layers (lower). Open Aprilisa flower 1, resize by 20% and add above the magic lights.

Open Pixelily scatters, resize by 15% and add below (1) the snowman and (2) flower 1. Open Aprilisa owl, resize by 15% and add above the flower 1 layer.

Using colour 4C7699 (which I pulled from the center of flower 1), add your name. Duplicate for four (4) layers. On the bottom layer, add an outline and drop shadow.

Add a noise setting to each of the remaining layers, starting with 54-100-100, 64-100-100 and 74-100-100; save.

Resize to 650 x 650. Sharpen all layers by 2 EXCEPT (starting from the bottom): mask layer, brown lines layers, layer 5, Aprilisa flower 1 layer, Aprilisa owl layer, and name outline with drop shadow.

Animate with Animation Shop by adding the layers one after the other in order. Once completed: Edit > Select All > File > Optimization Wizard > and apply your settings. In case you have forgotten what settings I use, it's
