Notes: It wouldn't have been possible without constant support and an honest feedback from my dear friend jdl71  Thank you Jen, for being an amazing beta and an even more amazing friend. 

This is my third entry into the challenge and I've been thoroughly enjoying it. I was fortunate to work with amypond45 for the beautiful story she wrote. The story revolves around idiots in love and the visuals that the author mentioned were so tempting that I immediately claimed the fic. Here's at a lance at how the final piece came to life.

1. Step 1 was to find a correct background and create a cut out of the boys to fit the scene of Sam and Dean laying in bed, all sweet.  It took some time because I had to work on getting the details right. I changed the tone and temperature and added a light hue to get the basic rough draft of the base manip.

I claimed Jen's fic for quicky_bang . the author wanted a specific scene illustrated and that was the brothers in bed. The thing that intrigued me the most was about Sam giving Dean a massage. The fic elaborates the scene so beautifully. I've tried my level best to do justice to the story. Here's how the final piece took a shape.

1. The first step towards creating the photo manip was finding the correct background. The dim lights, feel of an enclosed room as the boys are in bunker, a bed with white sheets and all. So I googled and settled on the following image of the room.
