Supplies:

Tube of choice. I used the gorgeous work of Lady Mishka. You can find her work at Pics For Design.

PTU Kit November Harvest by Gina's Gems Scraps

Plug Ins: Xero-Porcelain

Fonts of choice. I used Canuth and Carlotta

Let's Get Started:

Open a new 700 by 700 image (Will refer to it as canvas from time to time).

Paste Decorative Twig Frame to canvas. Image> Resize (make sure all layers is unchecked) to 85%.

Paste the tube you have chosen to use. If it does not have a close up layer resize the tube slightly larger (if copyright allows) so that it fits the frame better.

Select the frame layer and your wand tool. Click inside of the frame. Selections> Modify> Expandy by 5. Selection> Invert. Select the tube layer and hit the delete key on your keyboard.

Selections> Select None.

Select the tube layer in your layer list. Effects> PlugIns> Xero: Porcelain- Softness 50, Strength 128, Brightness 128, Red Channel 109, Green Channel 106, Blue Channel 255. Duplicate tube layer (can do this by right clicking on the tube and selecting duplicate). Change the top layers blend mode to soft light (found above layer list). Merge tube layers together.

Paste Paper 26. Image> Resize to 75%.

Select the frame layer and your wand tool. Click inside of the frame. Selections> Modify> Expandy by 5. Selection> Invert. Select the paper layer and hit the delete key on your keyboard.

Selections> Select None.

Select tube layer. Effects> 3D Effects> Drop Shadow: Vertical 3, Horizontal 2, Opacity 60, blur 5, color black

Select frame layer. Effects> 3D Effects> Drop Shadow: Vertical 2, Horizontal 2, Opacity 45, Blur 5, Color black.

Paste Beaded Rope Bow. Image> Resize to 65%. Image> Flip. In the layer list drag this layer to where it is the bottom layer (behind the paper layer) and position at the bottom.

Paste Branch Deco. Drag this layer under the Beaded Rope Bow layer and position centered behind the frame.

Paste Butterfly1 Image> Resize to 35%. Place over the orange flower on the frame.

Paste Candle Arrangement1. Image> Resize to 35%. Place at the bottom right corner of the frame. Make this your top layer.

Paste Tag1. Image> Resize to 85%. Use Pick Tool to rotate slightly (to a position that you like) and then place at the top right of the frame.

Paste Wordart1 Image> Resize to 75%. then 75% again. Drag to top layer and place at the bottom slightly off center.

Paste Tube again. Image> Resize 50%.  Place on the left of the frame. Drag layer to bottom. Duplicate and drag to top. Using your erase tool remove the parts of the tube that cover the frame at the bottom (see my example). It is your choice to do this step or not.

Select bottom tube layer. Effects> 3D Effects> Drop Shadow: Vertical 2, Horizontal 2, Opacity 45, Blur 5, Color black.

Shadow anything you have not yet with the same settings.

Merge Visible.

Add wording of choice. I added "A Bountiful Season". I used font Canuth, size 36, color #757633.

I added a gradient glow to it. If you like add one to yours.

Add name with font of choice. I used my pick tool to rotate it to fit the rectangular tag. I used font Carlotta, size 60, color #fe9e36.

Adjust> Add/Remove Noise> Add Noise: Gaussian 40 Monochrome checked.

Effects> 3D Effects> Drop Shadow: Vertical 3, Horizontal 3, Opacity 70, Blur 5, Color black.
