Open up the Frame 1 and copy and paste it onto your canvas. Resize it to 26% then resize again to  80%.
Grab your magic wand and put it on freehand and draw a circle on top of the frame. Add a new layer and move this layer under the frame. Open up a paper of your choice (I chose paper 5.).

Copy and paste your paper into selection. Deselect. I found a tree and paste it on top of the paper. 
Add your tube, and resize as needed. I resized mine to 30%. Now, duplicate it and move the duplicate above the frame layer. 
Get your eraser tool and erase all the parts showing above the frame. 
Add the brick wall mask just below the frame layer and resize it to your liking.
I resized mine to 20%. I then moved it to the top and duplicated it. Image flip, Image duplicate Image mirror, then duplicated it and flipped it again making like a mask. 
I colorized each layer with the sepia overtone setting. 
Add your elements of choice. 
I chose the Jam and Latte and resized them to 10%.
I also added a vine brush that I found by FallnStock on deviantart.com. 

Add your watermark if you wish, and make 
sure you add the copyright for the image you used.

Template by Chantal HERE

Stacies Mask of  Moonbeam and Spider Webs 
on the Creative Misfits Blog HERE.
I used mask 1. 

Turkey Sandwich Font.         



Open your template, Shift D to duplicate. Delete or hide credit layers. 

I start from the bottom. Select all, add a new raster layer copy and paste a paper
of choice into selection. I chose paper 6. Add your mask from image or from disc.

Now here is how I did my paper layers:

Most of the layers,, unless otherwise indicated, I added a new layer, select all and
copy and pasted the paper into selection.

Raster 3 -- Paper 4
Raster 8 -- Select all, float, defloat  Copy and paste paper 8 as a new layer. Resize to 60%.
Selections invert, delete excess. 
Raster 9 -- I left alone. 
Raster  5 -- Paper 7.
Raster 6 -- Paper 5. 
Raster 10 -- I left alone. 
Raster 4 --Paper 6 Resize to 65%. -- Select all, float, defloat  Copy and paste paper 6 as a new layer. Selections invert, delete excess. 
Raster 2 -- I filled with #bd6313.
Raster 7 -- Paper 1. 

For all of the template layers, I added a white layer with noise. 
My Tutorial for that is HERE.  
Rasters 11 & 12 -- Wordart layers. I duplicated them and added a gradient glow
to them and noise at 100%.  I also colorized the top layers to black, using the manual color correction tool. 


Now for the elements:
El 3  resized to 45%. move to one side, duplicate and mirror.
El 12 resized to 65% Rotate right -- 90
El 11- 50%. Move to one side, duplicate and mirror.
El 4 resized to 50%.
El 10- 75%.
I found some leaves-- can't remember where, and added them behind my tube.
I also added the word Everyday, using the Windsong font.


Add your watermark if you wish, and make 
sure you add the copyright for the image you used.
Add your name or name(s) of whoever you want. 
For my name, I duplicated the layer and on the 
bottom layer added a Fat Gradient glow.
I also added a drop shadow of 2, -2, 5, 0.
