Any resemblance to another
tutorial is purely coincidental.
For this tutorial, I’m using
a tube by Elias Chatzoudis.
You can purchase this tube at PTE
http://psptubesemporium.com/index.php?p=home

Supplies:
Tube of choice
Scrap of choice.
I’m using one by Gothic Inspiratiosn
Called An Irish Jig

Open a 600x600 new image.
Open up your tube & scrap supplies.

Choose a frame of choice.
Resize 68% or as needed.
Paste as a new layer.

Click inside the frame with your magic wand.
Hold shift down if needed to select multiple areas.
Selections modify expand by 3

Paste paper of choice as new layer.
Selections invert & press delete.
Move paper under the frame layer in
your layer palette.
Now select none.

Now if you used a frame similar
to the one I chose, with holes
in the frame border,
go back to your frame layer &
select the holes in the border.
You will have to hold shift down
to select them all.

Selections modify expand 3
Paste a 2nd paper this time
& repeat as with the first paper.
Select none.
Move under frame.
This should give the illusion that
the frame is all filled in.

Add a drop shadow to the frame layer
2,2,50,5 black
Merge the frame layers together & resize
90% Move down slightly

Open a clover doodle.
Paste as a new layer on the bottom half of the
frame.
Paste your main tube as a new layer
& add the earlier drop shadow to both
doodle & tube layers.

Select a butterfly element.
Resize 20%
Rotate 15 either direction &
Paste on one of the corners of the frame.

Open a vine element.
Resize 50%
Paste on same side as clover &
position in layer palette so that it
is under the clover layer.
Add a drop shadow.

Paste wordart of choice.
I am using one which came with the scrapkit.
You can apply a gradient glow using
Eye Candy 4000 Gradient Glow but that is
optional.
Add a drop shadow as well.

Resize all layers 88%
Add copyright info & name
Save as jpeg or png.
