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

Start a new canvas

Flood fill with white.

Open JJS_4

Add it to your canvas

Scale down to about 80%

Open_5

Add to your canvas just above the white snowball frame

Resize down to 55%

Use your magic wand to select inside this frame

Select → Modify → Expand, by 2

On the first frame press delete, deselect

Merge the two together

Add a drop shadow

Open PP2

Resize to 600px by 600px

Add to your canvas and have this below the frame layer

I made mine smaller so it was just bigger than the frame

Use your magic wand and select inside the frame

Select → Modify → Expand, by 6

Invert the selection and on the paper layer, press delete

Deselect

Duplicate

Filter → Penta → ColorDot, all at default

Change the blend mode to soft light

Open PP4

Resize to 600px by 600px

Add to your canvas just above the white background

Apply the mask here

Add your tube to your canvas.

Resize and reposition as you'd like to above the frames

Once you're happy with the size and position

Duplicate this layer

To the top layer

Filter → Blur → Gaussian Blur, 3.0px

Change the blend mode to screen

Lower to opacity to 50%

To the bottom tube, add a drop shadow

Add your tube in between the frame's paper layers

Erase any of the tube that is outside the frame

Change the blend mode to luminosity

Lower the opacity to 45%

Now we're just going to add the elements we want to, to the tag
