Description This is the first photomanipulation that I have ever done It's for the Create Your Own Fantasy Contest that can be found here: [link] . I didn't have a specific idea in mind until I read that we have to include a structure. I figure, what better than a door standing in the middle of a forest? I don't know where it leads - and it's likely that she doesn't either.

I made this using Adobe Photoshop Elements, with my Bamboo Craft tablet. It probably took me somewhere around an hour to put together. It took me a while to get the "vision" right for it. I even applied some cool lighting effects to make everything look more cohesive. It's a little shaky, since it's my first, but I'm proud of it and I feel that it all works well together.

Hehe. Thanks! It was a lot of fun. The cutting is what takes the most time in this whole process. A lot of people will think "oh, you're just putting pictures in other pictures." It's so much more work than that to make it look good!

True If you then also put special filters, colors and other things that aren't easy to do so everything looks as if it belonged together then it'll look really professional.
