After you've done that get a white brush that is very feathered and add a glow type effect behind your picture of you, you don't want to much white just a little bit to make the picture stand out from the background.

After You've done you can add little effects like the stars I've used or the swirly thing I made with the pen, you can also add your name at the top.

When You've done all these steps you will be done, I hope you like my image and I hope you found this guide helpful, feel free to ask any questions about the making of this image and I will answer them to the best of my ability.
