This tutorial is written by me, and any similarities is strictly coincidental.

Let's begin!

Open a 600x600 new image canvas – transparent background.

Open element 51 and re-size to 450x450.
Copy and paste as a new layer to canvas.
Position as you like.

Open your tube and re-size to 560x337.
Copy and paste as a new layer to canvas.
Position as you like.

Open element 160 and re-size to 296x450.
Copy and paste as a new layer onto canvas.
Position as you like.

Open element 63 and re-size to 150x149.
Copy and paste as a new layer onto canvas.
Position as you like.

Open element 87 and re-size to 120x101.
Copy and paste as a new layer onto canvas.
Position as you like.

Open element 170 and re-size to 76x150.
Copy and paste as a new layer onto canvas.
Position as you like.

Open element 65 and re-size to 150x147.
Copy and paste as a new layer onto canvas.
Position as you like.

Open element 31 and re-size to 132x135.
Copy and paste as a new layer onto canvas.
Position as you like.

Go back to element 51 (the frame).
Using your selection tool, click inside it.
Go to selections, modify, expand, and expand by 8 pixels.
Open paper 35 and re-size to 400x400.
Copy and paste as a new layer onto canvas.
Position as you like.
Go to selections, and invert.
Hit delete on your keyboard.
Open your tube back up.
Find a close-up version you like of your tube.
Copy and paste as a new layer onto canvas.
Hit delete on your keyboard.
Go to selections, and select none.
Move your tube layer and paper layer below the frame, but make sure your tube layer is on top of the paper layer.
Activate the tube layer, go to properties, and change the blend mode to luminance (legacy) and the opacity to 55.

Open paper 13 and re-size to 600x600.
Copy and paste as a new layer to canvas.
Move that layer to very bottom.
Apply mask of choice.
I am using MBandSW_Mask21 by Moonbeams and Spiderwebs.
Merge group.

Now add a drop shadow to all your elements and tube (except for the paper) to your liking.
Adding a drop shadow will make your tag pop instead of giving it that flat look.
I used these settings: 3, 2, 60, 5.

Add your copyright information and your license number to your tag.
I use 'Arial' font size 8 to do mine in the color black. I also used the plugin of Eye Candy Gradient Glow with a width of 5 to go around my copyright and license information in the color choice of f7c8d9.
Merge visible layers together. Give your creation a name and save as a blank copy.

Now, add a name to your tag in your font of choice.
I used font 'Contribute' in size 48. Color choice was 5e0233.
Merge down and re-save.
