Selections - select none.

Activate your frame layer again and click inside ONE of the frames, selections - modify - expand by 5 pixels and copy and paste one of your tubes onto the canvas, position how you think looks best.

Selections - invert then hit delete on your keyboard

Repeat this step for the other 2 frames using different tubes.

Make sure the tube layers are above your paper layer.
Add a drop shadow of your choice to your tubes and frame, i used

V & H 1 Opacity 50 Blur 8 and color Black

Open knotted ribbon3 from Missy's kit, resize by 85% and copy and paste onto your canvas, and position at the top of the frame, see my tag for reference. add the same drop shadow we used earlier, then go to LAYERS - DUPLICATE then IMAGE - FLIP.

Open the crisscross1 ribbon thingy lol from the kit and resize by 20% and then copy and paste it over to your canvas and position, where the first and second frame meet, and then paste it again where the 2nd and 3rd frame meet, see my tag for reference. add the same dropshadow we used earlier.

Once you are happy with the tag so far, hide any white layers u have and merge visable.
Open Paper 1 from the kit, paste onto your canvas and apply your mask, then go LAYERS - MERGE GROUP.

You may have to resize the mask layer to fit nicely, i then duplicated it,then flipped it and moved it over to the other side of the original mask layer.

Pick a font you like and a color to match the tag, i used black. Type out the name of the artist, i used Elias Chatzoudis tubes, so i typed out Elias,then moved it over the Girls Rock Too word art and rotated it a little bit - see my tag for reference. Add a drop shadow.

Again hide out any white layers, if you have any. and go to LAYERS - MERGE VISABLE. Crop off any excess canvas, add your copyrights and your name and then save.
