~*~*~ Let's Get Started~*~*~

Start a new canvas

600px by 600px

Flood fill with white.

Open as17

Add to your canvas

Add a drop shadow

Open as_paper10

Resize to 600px by 600px

Add to your canvas

Use your magic wand to select inside the frame

Select → Modify → Expand, by 5

Invert the selection

On the paper layer press delete

Open as_paper07

Resize to 600px by 600px

Add to your canvas just above the white background layer

Apply the layer mask here

Add your tube to your canvas, resize and reposition to your liking

Move just below the frame, Erase any of the tube that's outside the frame

Duplicate

Move above the frame, erase any of the tube that's over the frame at the bottom

Filter → Blur → Gaussian Blur, 3.0px

Change the blend mode to soft light

To the bottom tube add a drop shadow

Now add which elements you'd like

I used the following from the bottom layer up with a drop shadow unless stated:

I worked only on the right side at first.

as23 (no drop shadow)

as05 (no drop shadow)

as07

I then duplicated all of these layers and moved them over to the left

Adjusted the small ribbon flowers a bit on each.

Crop your tag to get rid of the access space that's not needed

Resize if you'd like to
