with all the files open and ready to go, let's get started.

open the template and resize the canvas at 750px by 650px.

delete or hide the copyright layer.

now merge down the following layers:

frame2 with frame1

frame back with frame back

circle2 with circle1

circle back with circle back

rectangle2 with rectangle1

square2 with square1

now make sure the circle1 is above the circle back.

now delete the wordart shadow layer.

add a new raster layer above the background layer and select all.

open paper15 from the kit and copy.

paste into selection on the new raster layer and select none.

apply the mask at default settings.

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

now on the square1 layer, select all/float/defloat/invert selection.

open paper2 and copy.

paste as a new layer above the square1 layer.

hit delete on the paper2 layer.

go down to the background layer and select all.

crop to selection.

hide the square1 layer.

add a new raster layer above the rectangle1 layer.

on the rectangle1 layer, select all/float/defloat.

select none and hide the rectangle1 layer.

repeat the same steps with the following layers and papers:

OPTIONAL

here, you can add a close up tube.

open the tube and copy.

paste as a new layer above the paper9/frame back layer.

position it to the left frame.

duplicate the tube and mirror it.

adjust the position accordingly.

merge down so both tubes are 1 layer.

go up to effects > photo effects > black and white film.

apply it with the following settings:

brightness - 0

set the blend mode to multiply.

use your magic wand tool to select the area outside the frame back/paper9 layer.

hit delete on the tubes and select none.

go down to the background layer and select all.

crop to selection.

now add a new raster layer above the frame1 layer.

on the frame1 layer, select all/float/defloat.

open paper7 from the kit and copy.

paste into selection on the new raster layer.

select none and hide the frame1 template layer.

repeat the steps for the following layers and papers:

hide the 2 wordart template layers.

now open your full body tube and resize it accordingly.

copy and paste (C/P) as a new layer above the center circle/paper13 layer.

position it above the center circle.

add a drop shadow of your choosing.

duplicate the tube.

now use your rectangle selection tool to make the following selection:

hit delete on the top tube layer.

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

now unhide the center circle layer and select all/float/defloat/invert selection.

hit delete on the bottom tube layer.

you can use papers or colors to fill in the text and text outline.

now go to the very bottom layer and select all.

image > crop to selection.

this gets rid of any extra stuff not visible on the canvas.

hide the background layer.

edit > 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.
