I used the wonderful art of Suzanne Woolcott. You must purchase a licence to use her art which can be done here

Lets begin!

1. Open a new canvas 600x600 and fill white.

2. Copy and paste one of the papers as a new image.

3. Add a new raster layer to your canvas. Select your airbrush tool - size-150 hardness-10 step-1 density-9 thickness-100 rotation-0 opacity-20 blend mode normal rate-5

4. Set your foreground to the paper you selected and draw out a shape in the centre of your canvas, mine was almost square, but you can be creative here. Colourise to match your tube.

5. Copy and paste the funky frame as a new layer, colourise to suit. Copy and paste your tube as a new layer, add a drop shadow, resize as necessary and move under your frame.

6. Make your frame layer active and copy and paste the button cluster as a new layer, duplicate, image mirror, move it so it looks like lots of buttons sitting at the bottom right.

7. Copy and paste the dashed circles as new layers and place at the top right of your frame, move the smaller one so that they look like they are joined.

8. Copy and paste the bow as a new layer, add a drop shadow. Place it over the circles.

9. Copy and paste the word art as new layers, place them where you like.

10. Copy and paste the square frame as a new layer and resize by 50%, copy and paste your image as a new layer and place uncer the frame, resize as necessary. With your frame layer active and using your magic wand, click inside the frame, selections, modify, expand by 10, selections invert, make your image active, hit delete on your keyboard. Selections, select none. Make your frame layer active again, add a drop shadow, layers, merge down.

11. Repeat this for the other side, I used the raster deform tool to make one a bit smaller. Rotate as you wish. Copy and paste the staple as a new layer and rotate it so that it looks like its holding your picture onto your funky frame.

12. Copy and paste the little scrap paper as a new layer, rotate it to the right. Copy and paste the Heart as a new layer and place alongside the scrap, copy and paste the double staple as a new layer, place it so its holding the heart and scrap together.

13. Add your name to the small scrap. Add your copyright information and watermark and your all done.
