Open a new canvas 400 by 400 and flood fill with white.

Open all your season images and the Kimberly font.

We will do SUMMER first so set your Stroke to  a darker colour from the summer image i used #c6a88c

 Fill Null - Kimberly font - size 48, - stroke width 2 pixels

Now type SUMMER in capitals. convert raster to layer.

Grab your magic wand and select in side each letter.
Selections modify Expand by 1 pixel.

Copy and paste your SUMMER image paste as a new layer arrange
so the part of the image you want to use is in side the selected text area

Go to Selections - Invert- hit delete once.

X out the white background merge visible

Now we are going to repeat all the above for each season
each word will be longer or shorter so use the nodes to make the text
all the same size as the SUMMER text like below.


Pull the node to the right so it stretches And is the same length as the Summer text.

Changing the images and the stroke colour to match the image.

and once you have this

X out the white back ground and merge all layer visible.

a a drop shadow of V & H both 3 - Opacity 50- Blur - 3, colour black.

Ok now for the back ground,

add a new layer, and bring down so its sits between your background and merged layer.

Set you brush to +Round25 size  50

In your foreground & stroke find the winter image you used to fill your text
and sweep from left to right under where it says WINTER.

Do the same with each picture until you have this


now open your Internationl Palm font or any if you don't wish to use the same as me.

And add the  Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, text and place on each of the words
then add the drop shadow of  V 3 - H 9, - Opacity 73, Blur 2, colour black.

Add your name an use the same drop shadow as above.
