Materials Needed:




Open a new document. File > New: 550x550px at 72DPI

Open frame3 from the kit.

Use your move tool to move it onto your new canvas.

Edit > Free Transform:
(look at the top of your screen and enter these values)
1.jpg
Double click the name in the layers pallet and rename it to Frame1.

Grab your selection wand from your tools pallet and select the inside of your frame.
Select > Modify > Expand: 3px

Layer > New > Layer...
Name this layer Backing.
Edit > Fill: White
Now drag this layer under your Frame layer in the layers pallet.
Select > Deselect

Open paper3 from the kit and move it onto your tag.
Right click the layer in the layers pallet and choose Create Clipping Mask.
Right click again and Merge Down.

Select your Frame1 layer in the layers pallet.

Open Frame9 and move it onto your tag.
Use your move tool to position it about center.
Double click the name in the layers pallet and rename it to Frame2.

Open Flower6 and move it onto your tag.
Position it as shown in the finished tag using your Move tool.
Rename this layer to Flower1

Repeat for Flower7.
Rename this layer Flower2

Open Bow8 and move it onto your tag.
Edit > Free Transform:
2.jpg
Rename this layer to Bow.

Open Ribbon6 and move it onto your canvas.
Edit > Free Transform:
3.jpg
Rename this layer to Ribbon.

Add any other elements that you wish to the tag now.
Rename each layer to correspond with the element.

When you have all of your elements placed on your tag as desired, right click the top element and choose Blending Options.
Choose Drop Shadow from the side menu of the popup window.
Add this shadow:
4.jpg

Apply this same drop shadow to each of the other element layers. You can change the distance and size of the shadow to give your tag more depth.

Here is how my layers pallet looks:
5.jpg

And here is the tag so far:
6.jpg

Now select the Frame2 layer and open your tube.
Place your tube on your tag.
Edit > Free Transform:
Whatever settings makes your tube choice fit best.
Erase any portions outside of the frame.

You may need to move the tube up a layer or two to make her sit just right inside the tag.

Place your tube on your canvas again and Edit > Transform > Flip Horizontal.

Position it on the opposite side of the tag and give them both a drop shadow. Preferably the same one you used on the elements.

Add your copyright information.

Now add a name to your tag. You can use any layer styles you would like on the name/text layer.

Now just save it as a .png or .jpg and that's it. :)



And this is my result:
