I used the wonderful art of Suzanne Woolcott. You must purchase a licence to use her art which can be done here

Lets begin!

1. Open a new canvas 600x600 and fill white

2. Copy and paste your image as a new layer, I resized mine by 60%

3. Duplicate this layer 2 times so you have 3 image layers, on the bottom image layer, image, rotate, free rotate by 12 degrees to the right, on the middle image layer, image, rotate, free rotate 6 degrees to the right, hide your white layer and copy merged, add a drop shadow of choice

4. Again duplicate this merged layer, effects, texture effects, blinds, width 2, opacity 100 colour-a colour of choice, I used a light grey, and horizontal checked

5. Make your white layer active and add a new raster layer, fill this with a colour from your image, layers, load mask from disk,add your mask of choice. delete this layer and click yes to the question asked, ungroup layers. At this point, I resized my mask layer by 70%

6. Preset shape tool set to circle, with 2 colours from your tube, line width 5, draw out a circle and convert to raster, draw out another circle slightly smaller and convert this to raster also, place the 2 circle close together, hide all other layers and merge these visible once hapy with their position, add a drop shadow of choice. inhide your other layers

7. Change the properties of this layer to mulitply, duplicate, image, rotate, free rotate, right 90 degrees to the right, place down the left of your image close to the other ones

8. Preset shape tool again set to ' X ' or any other little shape you like, again with the same colours you used for your cirlce, change the line width to 2, draw out a shape, convert to raster, place it on one of the corners, duplicate and move this one to another corner. Change the colours over and again draw out another shape, convert to raster and place over one of the corners, duplicate and place over the final corner

9. Add any embelishments of choice, copyright information, your watermark and name, and your all done
