Lets make a background tile. This is going to have a cool pixelated design to it.
You can use it for a signature tag, Incredimail Letter, website design, table border... Whatever you choose.
Graphic Credits: MD, AlskasAbode IOP [closed]
-------------------
Okay, lets grab all your filters/plugins first. You'll need to re-start your graphics program for them to appear most likely.
Eye Candy 5-Alien Skin Textures :: Xero>>(Fritilary) :: VM Toolbox (softborder)

Note: How pretty this turns out really depends on the colors of graphics you use.
You are welcome to use my scene, or create your own.
If your using my template - just open it in graphics program. (This is written with paintshop pro 12 settings)
• Adjust >>> Gaussian Blur x5.00
• Effects >> AlienSkin Texture5/Texture Noise. In 'settings' choose 'crumpled tissue'
Basic Tab:
• Layers/ Add Raster Layer. Drag to bottom layer. [you may need to hide/deactivate your graphic layer to flood fill...]
• Flood Fill with color of your choice. I used #ffa1bc (pink)
• Now at this point I will sometimes make copies of the image and move
them around to make a larger decorated tile.
• Layers/Merge Visible
• Effects >>> VM Toolbox > Soft Borders
Settings: Transition-100, R,G,B - 255, Padding-4
• Effects >> Simple > Quick Tile.
And your done!
Once you have these steps memorized this is a very fast background to create.
This is what mine looks like

If you want less background and more of the pixelated design. Just move your images around more to take up the whole space of the background...
I think I actually like this one better.
I used 6 copies of my graphic on this one, and moved them about.

Paste in your main tube - mermaid or whatever you are using.
I am using :copyright:Alex Prihodko mermaid purchased at VeryMany Artists just $1.85!!!
Then on your layers palette, drag your tube layer below the frames, but on top of the beach background.
I have mine peeking from behind the seaweed. Resize your tube to whatever you need to, to look nice.
Erase the extra parts again.
Effects >> 3D effects >> drop shadow : same settings -3, -3, 10, 6
Still on that layer, change the Blend Mode to Luminance (Legacy)
Lower the opacity to 53%
Paste your main tube again as new layer. Move it to the very top layer on the layer palette or
layers >> arrange >> bring to top
Depending on the size of your tube and what it is - resize.
I resized mine 45%. To make room for my tube; I hide that layer. Merge all visible for the rest of the items.
Image >> resize canvas >> 1000 x 1000 px -- so I have room to move things around...
Effects >> 3D effects >> drop shadow: -6, -9, 57, 6
layers merge visible
Lets go back to our Christmas at the Beach 1 more time 
Open item 12. Paste as new layer. These bubbles are so pretty. I resized 40% and left them directly on my mermaid.
This is totally optional. duplicate bubble layer, resize 60% move to the small frame and arrange above the bottle.
Layers >>> merge visible
If you want your finished image smaller than it is. This is the time to do that. -- Before we create the back drop and put on the credits and our license number.
Duplicate your layer. Hide top layer. click bottom layer on layer palette so your working with only that layer.
Effects >> Medhi >> Melt
Unhide top layer. Merge / Visible.
Add credits.
Add name. I didn't list Eye Candy in the filters. I just decided to use it on my name at the last minute...
And DOnE!
