It's another fun week with Mono Monday,

and I am so excited this week...

I saw Gator's post and I went with the fantasy theme.

My oldest granddaughter, Arianna, loves the Disney princess's

And so I thought I would do pictures that would make her happy.

(I have to thank Rita again... I am having so much fun with GIMP...

So much to play with and learn but it is great fun!!!)

 

Here are the pictures I used for

my Mono Monday #46:

1.

Taken from a Google search for underwater pictures

 

2.

A picture of my granddaughters taken 2007 (Arianna is on the right)

 

And some free clip art:

The first thing I did was cut Arianna out of the Christmas picture

Had to go to Gimp and put it on a larger width picture and anchor it

Than added the layer of Ariel and erased Ariel's face to show Arianna's.

Saved that and pulled my undersea picture up to GIMP

brought the picture made up with my Arianna-Ariel & erased it's back ground.

Now I had Arianna-Ariel under the sea...

I took the clip art one layer at a time and added it ~ sized each one to the right size.

 

After I had it all together I saved it and it looked like this:

I than took this into Picnic and changed it to black & white

Also added a drop shadow frame in Picnik & this is what I came up with:

 

 

 

And for my Plus:

I used these pictures:

1.

The procedure was the same for this picture... and so the plus:

 

 

 

 

WANT TO WISH EVERYONE
