Take your Selection tool and draw a square on the dress, copy, paste as a new image, now go to your color palette to patterns, select your pattern, fill with this pattern, angle 0, Scale 100, then go to Adjust, Blur, Motion blur, with the number on 45, Strength at 100, apply twice.

Apply the Xero filter-Fritillary with these settings

Take your Selection tool, draw a rectangle across and as wide as you like, add a new raster layer, fill with #946252, change the blend mode to soft light, then go to Effects, Edge effects, Enhance twice.

Duplicate, flip, duplicate again and move to the center of the tag.

Paste your tube, mirror, resize to 60%, move more to the left, duplicate, mirror, move below the rectangles to the right, change the blend mode to soft light.

Before you merge and add the frame, make a copy first, hold the shift key and hit the letter d.

I used AAA Foto Frames with these settings

Width 3, Opacity 50, all other numbers on 0.

Type whatever wording you want on yours, I typed Chocolate first, then and Friends so that

I could adjust them, merge these two together, duplicate, move to the lower left.

I used a white drop shadow to help show up better with these settings

V-2, H 2, Opacity 100,  Blur 0,00.

Add your copyright and name, merge visible.

Copy and paste your tube from the signature tag, resize to 70%, adjust, merge down.

Type out your wordart again only a bit smaller and place at the bottom, once happy merge visible.
