Click on the paper layer in your layer palette Selections – Select all – Selection – Float – Selection – Defloat, copy and paste a paper of your choice (I used paper 5)
Selections – invert and hit delete on your keyboard, now delete the original paper layer.

Do the same with Layers : 3 strips, Rectangle, Oval, Bow Ribbon & Stitch using papers of your choice (I used Paper 18, Paper 17, Paper 21, Paper 14 and Paper 7 respectively)

Now make your oval layer active and Selections – Select all – Selection – Float – Selection – Defloat and add your tube resizing if necessary then Selections – invert and hit delete on your keyboard

Make your white background layer active and copy and paste a paper of your choice I used Paper 6 and *Layers – Load/Save Mask – Load mask from disc and look for WSL_Mask 167 and apply then right click on Group layer in your layer palette and merge group* Then copy and paste paper of your choice again I used Paper 5 and do the same from * to * but using WSL_Mask 187 you might have to stretch both Mask Layers using your Raster Deform Tool and I rotated WSL_Mask 187 left by 45%

Now add whatever Elements you like I used Flowers 1, 2 and 3 resizing them by 50% and I used Bows 5 & 7 placing them one on top of each other.

Make the top Group Layer active and copy and paste the Enamel Splatter 01 resizing by 50% and place it at top right of your Tag then copy and paste Enamel Splatter 02 again resizing by 50% and place it left bottom I flipped Enamel Splatter 02 for the effect I wanted but it’s your choice.

I also added the diamond ( which I had in my supplies, I’m sure you have it too) to the centre of the flowers again it’s your choice.

Now resize to 550 x 550 and add the artists copyright and your watermark.

If you have added the diamonds then right click on the top one and merge down and do it again so you have the diamonds on the one layer now X out that layer click on one of the other layers and Merge Visible – Un X the diamond layer.

Add your name using one of the papers in your background and the foreground on black with a stroke of 1 solid line.

If you are happy with your Tag and don’t wish to animate then Merge all and save as a Jpeg.
