Could anyone suggest how should I learn and in what order to do following?

I want to build windows application for photo editor like photoshop(That's huge) with just two buttons of features, import picture, export picture save and open! That's it!

I know C++ and image processing algorithms. But I am confused from the following what should I learn and in what order? Windows programming with API, windows GUI, MFC, Message driven architecture, MSDN, SDK?

Would you please highlight on this with respect to my small application? Where they fit in pipeline while you create one full fledged application?
