Autumn Whispers

Written November 2, 2026

 

Ingredients:

Tube of your choice or use one from the kit such as I did. Whatever tube you use be sure to give credit.

Scrap is a freebie from Bie Designz. It is called Autumn Whispers and you can get it at Bie Designz: AUTUMN WHISPERS

Be sure to check out the rest of her blog and her store. She has awesome kits/tubes.

Font of your choice. I am using  Beststop Glistening

Plugins/Filters:

Xero Soft Vignette

 

Lets Begin:

Open frame 9 from the kit and shift+D to duplicate. Close the original so you can use it again if you choose to do so.

Go ahead and resize this frame to your liking. Also give yourself enough canvas area to work with. You can always crop and resize when you are done.

Using your freehand selection tool set to point to point. Select around the frame being sure you include any bits inside of the frame that you will want your paper to be behind.

Layers new raster layer and drag to the bottom.

Open a paper of your choice. I am using paper 6.

Copy and paste into selection.

Add a drop shadow of your choice to the frame.

Make your paper layer active and apply the Xero Soft Vignette filter using the following settings:

Gradient Shape Eliptical

Effect Type foreground color

Pattern Type solid

First 3 sliders set to 0 and strength set to 255

It wont change the image much but you will notice it does brighten it a bit.

Open frame 1 and copy and paste as a new layer. Drag to the bottom. Resize so it fits nicely around your frame. Add a drop shadow.

Open your tube of choice and copy and paste as a new layer. Resize as needed and position where you want.

Now I will tell you the elements I used but honestly from here its up to you to make your tag your own. If you want yours to look just like mine then reference my header tag.

Elements Used:

Cluster 1

Element 6

Element 17

Element 34

If you want to make yours a 3 piece set like I did it is super easy. Just choose what elements you want to use for the banner and also the av.

Add your name.

Add your copyright and any licensing information needed.

Crop and save.
