Paste element 17 below the frame layer at the bottom, place under the pumpkins the way you like, erase the part on the left side, duplicate, mirror and erase any other parts you like.

Add any other elements you would like, make it your own.

Crop your tag to be sure no stray shadows are on the edges of your tag.

Once happy with it all, close off any backgrounds, merge visible.
Resize first, then add your copyrights and name.
 

That's it
