Apply the mask here

Now if you're wanting to animate follow the next steps, if not you can do it to add some sparkle or skip it, whatever works for what you'd like to do :)
Hide the very top tube layers along with the white background
Ctrl + A (selects the whole canvas)
Edit → Copy Merged
Paste
You may need to reposition your new layer of the merged image so it's directly over the other
Now Ctrl + click on the thumbnail of this image so that you select just around this one
I added a new layer here a filled the selection with black
Now you can delete our merged image
Duplicate the black layer 3 times so we have a total of 4 layer of them
On the bottom one

Resize and reposition where you'd like to
Once you're happy with this
Add a drop shadow that you'd like
Use the Quick Selection Tool and select just the puppy's nose

You may need to adjust it's position once again so it's back where it belongs
Duplicate this nose layer twice
Change all three blend modes to vivid light
Merge them together
You may need to do a bit of cleanup and erase little bits around the nose
For now though just hide this layer.

Now if you'd like to animate let's get to that, we're all ready and set

Open your animation window, everything should be ready for frame one if you closed out all the ones I mentioned previously so, add a new animation window
Leave the dog nose hid for now but, hide the first frame of the sparkles and unhide the second frame
Add a new animation layer, hide the second frame and unhide the third frame, unhide the dog nose layer as well
Add a new animation layer, hide the third frame and unhide the fourth frame, leave the dog nose layer as is
Add a new animation layer, hide the fourth frame and unhide the first frame, hide the dog nose layer as well
Add a new animation layer, hide the first frame and unhide the second frame, leave the dog nose layer as is
Add a new animation layer, hide the second frame and unhide the third frame, unhide the dog nose layer as well

Open your animation window and have all but the very first frame open on all of them
Add a new layer to the animation window
Hide the first layer of all 4 of the animation and unhide the second layer

If you're happy with your result save to your liking and you're done!

Now, if you're wanting to animate we're going to continue on!

Open up your animations

Select all of your frames of both of them and click alt + G
This just selects them all as a group
On the bubbles one, if you're using the animation without the shadow go ahead and add the shadow you used on your tag here.

Now add the bubbles to your tag
Resize and reposition as you'd like to.
Mine I just slightly bigger than the mirror frame
It is positioned just above this frame as well
Close all of the frames except for the very first frame once you're happy with the size and position

Now add the flame
Rotate is Counter Clockwise 90 degrees
Have this just above your candle 1 layer
Resize and reposition so it looks like it's on the wick of one of the candles
(I did the one on the left first since it's just slightly bigger of the two)
Once you're happy with how that looks
Duplicate this and move it over to the other wick and resize it so it's just a bit smaller
Hide all of the frame except for the first one of each

Now open up your animation window
have it set to go forever and the delay set to .1
Add a new layer and hide the first layer and unhide the second layer of each of them
Add a new layer and hide the second layer and unhide the third layer of each of them
You're going to continue this until you have all of the layers done.

For the flames, there is not as many as there is bubbles, just revere the frames and go back down once you're to the top.

Once all the bubbles are done I didn't like how it just sort of ended and started over so I duplicated all the frames and of the new ones I reversed the animation

Press play to watch it go.

If you're happy with the result save as a .gif and you're done!
