***********************

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

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

add a new raster layer and select all.

open paper13 from the kit and copy.

paste into selection on the new raster layer.

select none.

apply the mask at default settings.

right click on the mask layer to merge the mask group.

resize the merged mask group layer by 90%.

now open up the droplets1 element, do not resize.

copy and paste (C/P) it as a new layer above the mask layer.

now open the starburst1 & 2.

C/P starburst1 above the dropslet1.

repeat the process with starburst2.

with starburst2, free rotate it to the right by 20.

now hide the mask and starburst layers.

open the frame3 element and resize by 70%.

C/P it as a new layer above the starburst2 layer.

now select the pick tool.

hold down the Ctrl key and hover your cursor over the top right perspective toggle.

while holding down the Ctrl key, pull the toggle down slightly.

use the below image for reference.

now open the tube and resize it by 70%.

C/P the tube as a new layer above the frame.

pull the tube over so it sits in the middle of the frame.

now zoom in on the canvas by 500%.

you want to put the tube so you can see a little bit of space between her bottom and her boot.

like below, click the image for a larger preview:

now duplicate the tube and pull the copy below the frame.

use your rectangle selection tool with 0 feather and make the following selection:

now hit delete on the top tube layer.

invert your selection and hit delete on the bottom tube layer.

*SPECIAL NOTE*

if you want to add a drop shadow to the tube, add the drop shadow on a separate layer.

you will need to use the same selection and delete process as above so the drop shadow is seamless.

now add a new raster layer below the bottom tube layer.

use your magic wand tool to click inside the frame and expand by 5.

open paper2 from the kit and copy.

paste into selection on the new raster layer.

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! =)
