*********************** 

with everything all set to go, let's get started.

open a new image with a transparent background at 750px by 650px.

open the DBA JOURNALING 1 element from the kit and resize by 60%.

copy and paste (C/P) as a new layer.

now open frame7 from the kit and resize by 70%.

C/P as a new layer above the journaling element.

open paper1 from the kit and copy.

add a new raster layer below frame7.

use your selection tool to click inside the frame and expand selection by 10.

paste into selection on the new raster layer.

select none.

now open your tube and resize if needed.

C/P as a new layer below frame7.

position it to your liking.

use your magic wand tool to select OUTSIDE the paper1 layer.

hit delete on the tube layer to delete any excess portions of the tube.

select none.

now that all the basics are done, add any elements, text and tubes.

don't forget to add artist credit and license info.

when you're all done, copy special > copy merged. 

paste as a new image and use your magic wand tool to select outside the tag. 

invert selection and crop to selection. 

that will get rid of any extra space that you don't need.

thanks for trying my tutorial! =)
