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

Start a new canvas

600px by 600px

Flood fill with white.

Open Frame3

Add to your canvas

Resize down by 80%

Duplicate this layer.

On the bottom one press ctrl+shift+alt + b, then enter

On the top one rotate it by 13 degrees

Rotate the bottom one by -8 degrees

Arrage them similarly to what I have in my tag

Merge the two layers together

Scale down to 90%

Add a drop shadow

Open sp1

Resize to 600px by 600px

Add to your canvas

Have this below your frames

Use your magic wand to select inside the frames

Select → Modify → Expand, by 5

Invert your selection and on the paper layer, press delete

Deselect

Add your close up tube to your canvas

Have it between your frame and paper layer

Position it how you want her in the frames

Once you're happy with this erase any parts that are outside the frames

Duplicate this layer

On the bottom change the blend mode to luminosity, opacity at 30%

On the top one change the blend mode to soft light, opacity at 70%

Add your tube to your canvas

Flip horizontally and resize and position to your liking

Once you're happy with this erase any of the legs that are over the frame

Duplicate this layer
