Hi Swala welcome to the forum.

what you need to do is add a new layer for your text type what you want to say.
this layer you just typed the text on go up along the top of your paint.net screen under layers you need rotate zoom swivel that ball thing upper left of the UI (user interface) to the right. I won't give a number for the swivel because I'm not sure what size type you will use. but you'll easily notice what happens when you swivel that ball around. :wink2:

What a great idea.

Just adding to Oma's input ... alpha displacement will help to get the text flowing with the pillows and a bit of drop shadow, maybe ?

*** I didn't use alpha displacement ... that came to me when I was posting this :???2:

Try the Perspective plugin (it should be better) and give you more control with perspective. You could use it in tandem with Rotate/Zoom. Welshblue has the right idea, and hope you can be able to achieve what he did.
