Supplies Needed

I used PSPX...but any of them should work.

 Scrap Happy 4th of July by Top Cats Tagz from Creative Misfits Creations blog  HERE
WSL_Mask 84 HERE

Font of Choice, I used Stripes and Stars

Drop Shadow usually V2 H2 50 black
Drop shadow on this one I used V-2 H-2 Blur 15
Use whatever drop shadow you prefer
 

 *Remember to add your drop shadow as you go along*

This is a quickie

Open a new image 800 x 800 or one you prefer.
Paste paper 14, apply your mask, delete, merge group.

Paste element 31, click inside with your magic wand, expand by 5, paste paper 4, invert, delete, move below the frame.

Paste your tube below the frame off to the left side, then take your selection tool,
draw around the top half of your tube, promote selection to a layer, select none and move above the frame layer.

Resize element 54 to 65%, place on the paper layer in the frame on the right, duplicate, resize to 50%, move over to the left a bit and down some.

Resize element 44 to 50%, place at the upper right on the frame, duplicate, mirror.
Paste element 28 at the bottom on the mask layer, duplicate, move to the top.
Paste element 6, resize to 65%, place on one side, duplicate, mirror.
Paste element 43 at the bottom, resize to 65%, place in the center.
Paste element 19 on the right side, resize to 65%.
Resize 33 to 55%, place by the hat.
Resize element 52 to 35%, place at the upper right.
Resize element 45 to 50%, place on one side below the flower layers, duplicate, mirror, adjust to your liking.
Paste element 3 below the flower layers at the bottom.

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

Hope you enjoyed doing my tut.
