2. Click on your D key. Select the fill tool and fill the background with black.

3. Creating the Doily - any texture that has holes in it will work for the doily. If you  use your brush textures and create your doily, make it 500 X 500 pixels square and skip down to  H. If you would like to make the doily I used, follow below.

1. Click View=>NewGuide
   • Set Horizontal guides at 100, 200, 300, and 400
   • Set Vertical guides at 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600.
2. Click Layer=> New=> Layer to insert a New layer. Set the foreground color to white by clicking the D key followed by the X key.
3. Select the shape tool. Set the shape to the multipointed round star.
   
   
    
4. Click on the shape on the shape selection and set the size of the shape to a FIXED size of 100 X 100 pixel shape.
    
5. Put your cursor over the 100 vertical line and the 0 horizontal line intersection and click. Do the same for all the coordinates listed below. Please note that there should be guide lines or edges of the canvas on these locations. This will give you 5 stars across by 5 stars down.

   100, 0 200,0 300, 0 400,0 500,0

   100,100 200,100 300,100 400,100 500,100

6. Add hearts set at 50 x 50 and "from center" to the crosshairs between your stars. (when I did it, I created star shapes at 45, 90, 135, 180, 225 degree variations to use. You may want to check out the shapes for sale on the shopping cart.)You may want to add a white 6-10 pixel wide rectangular shape to the four edges of  the doily for borders.
7. Resize your shapes layer by selecting your move tool, and then check bounding box. Bring the bottom right corner handle up to the 500 across and 370 down mark. This will bring the overhanging shape into view.
8. Rotate the selection clockwise by using the bounding boxes, until the corners are dead on center with the horizontal 200 pixel line, and the other two corners are vertically aligned with the 300 pixel line.
9. Grab the top handle and move it down so that the image is pinched to about 250 pixels or less in height. Widen the image out so it is about 600 pixels wide.
