Make a new image 500X500

Make a new layer called Flowers

Put some flowers slightly below the half way mark of your image

Make a new layer called grass

Use your freehand tool set to point to point. Select just below the flowers and everything underneath and fill with a light green. Opacity set to 50%

Apply Eye Candy 4000 Fur

Effects > Plug-in Filters > Eye Candy 4000 > Fur

Grab the flowers layer with your mover tool and move it down a little to close the gap between the grass and the flowers.

Make a new layer called sky

Use your Paintbrush tool at these settings

Put white dots scattered all over your sky

Do it again but change your color to a medium blue

Use your retouch tool with these settings. Use a circular motion to smudge your dots. Make sure your don't smudge them TOO much. You still want to be able to see a little definition between the white and the blue.
