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.

  Mask HERE.

I used Suz's Mask 2.

BCA Template by Millie--

 TEMPLATE 402 HERE.

Eye Candy 4000 Gradient glow.

Fonts used -- Pixelette for copyright and GoodVibrations.

The tube was a free tube from Ismael Rac's Store.

It is called 2014 BCA Girl. 

Ok-Let's Begin!

Shift D to duplicate your template. Delete Credits.

Image Canvas size --Resize Template to 700x700.

Activate Background layer and finish filling it with white.

Activate layer just above background layer. Click on it with your magic wand, add 

a new layer and copy and paste Paper of choice into selection.

Deselect. 

Layers- New mask layers- Find your mask in the drop down menu. Click ok.

Layers merge, merge group. I duplicated my mask to bolden it up a bit.

For each paper layer below, Select the layer with

your magic wand... Then I just copied and pasted the paper as a new layer-Selections invert- Then delete:

Layer 1 --Paper 7.

Layer 2- Paper 2.

Layer 3--Dotted lines. I duplicated this layer and used the manual color correction

tool to colorize it to pink. Then I duplicated the layer to make it more visible.

Layer 4- Paper 10.

Layer 5 -  Paper 5.

Layer 6 - Paper 3.

Layer 7 --Paper 2--- Add a new layer and copy and pasted this paper into selections.

For each of the layers above, I added a white frame with noise. 

How I did this-- Select the original layer-- not the paper layer selections, expand by 5 add a new layer and fill with white. Contract the selections by 7 or 8---I did 8. Delete--You should have a frame. Now add your noise. I used 100--Use whatever setting you want and like.

Move the layer above your paper layer and drop shadow it.

Layers 8 & 9 are the wordart---I just added a gradient glow to them and gave them a drop shadow of 1, -1, 50, 0. 

Elements Used--

Bubble- Resized about 50%. Place over your circle layer. You may need to use

your raster deform tool to form it around the circle.

Envelope  Resized 50% - Rotate 20 degrees left.

Wings- resized ti 35%.

Glitter Trail-75% - Duplicate and mirror.
