Adding Elements Project

What I did here was I first had to extend the actual photo to 11"x 8".  After doing that, I had to use the stamp tool to "fit" the photo on the entire canvas. I then filled a box in with a pattern overlay and changed the color to a more old look and used the lasso tool on the edges of the paper, weaving in and out to make the edges seem torn. After that, The elliptical marquee tool helped me to make a circle with another circle in it and I used the bevel and emboss layer option to make it look like a brad. The text on the "paper" had a script font but for the Texas text, I used a bluebonnet pattern overlay, which I made myself, the bevel and emboss with a Gaussian contour, and a drop shadow to make it pop. The very last task to accomplish was to give the sky a blue color to it, and I did that by using the gradient tool and simply just dragging down completed the new and improved picture.
