So this is my first siggy, I used Gimp on a Mac. I know there are a few things I would do differently starting with the fact that it's a little big, but what does everyone else think?
I think you did a great job with it, especially with it being your first. To me Gimp is really hard to do cut outs with and I think you did really well. Great job!
Did you do that cut-out of the stork yourself? It looks awesome! That would be super-tricky to do. There's an easier way, though. You can download digi-kits that have elements like that pre-made so that you don't have to make them yourself. Have you been to DigiScrapDepot.com - digiscrap, freebies, challenges, tutorials, forum and much more... ? There are a lot of good freebies available there.
Anyway, I love how you added the ultrasound photo riding in the stork's bag. Very cool effect!

Thanks I did do the cut out myself and it's not perfect but I couldnt find a realistic looking stork in a digi scrap kit. I did get the background from there though.
