Open up a 600x600 blank canvas.
Alright let's get started!
Open up frame 1 from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer onto your canvas, re-size if you feel you need to. Now grab your magic wand and click inside the frame then to go selections-expand and expand by at least 3. Open up a paper of choice I used paper 11. Add a new layer copy and paste your paper INTO the selection then select none and move the paper layer below the frame. Add a drop shadow of choice with Loka's Software play around with your settings.
Back on the frame layer again with your magic wand click inside the frame layer again now open up your tube if it has a close up use that. Copy and paste it as a new layer arrange to your liking then to go selections-invert and hit delete then select none move this layer below the frame but above the paper. Duplicate and mirror your tube if you'd like. Lower the opacity a bit to your liking and change the blend mode to screen.
I used the pumpkin element from the kit re-sized and arranged it to my liking duplicated it and mirrored it. Along with the books and cup with shells. Arrange them near the bottom of your tag and add the same drop shadow you did to the frame.
Open up your tube copy and paste it as a new layer arrange it so its below the pumpkins layer. Duplicate your tube layer then go to adjust-blur-gaussian blur of 3 then change the blend mode to soft light. Add the same drop shadow to the bottom layer tube.
Open up the first branch element copy and paste it as a new layer re-size to your liking. Arrange it below the tube layer and to either side then duplicate and mirror it. Add the same drop shadow to wach branch layer.
Open up the fence element copy and paste it as a new layer re-sizing it so it sort of fits in the frame again below the tube layer. Arrange to your liking and add your drop shadow.
Open up element 74 since I am not sure what to call them LOL. Copy and paste as a new layer re-size to your liking and move to the side of your tag under your branch layer. Duplicate and mirror arrange it on the other side of your tag.
Open up the second flying leaves element copy and paste as a new layer re-size if you need to and have this as your top layer over your tube, arrange it to your liking.
I also added the flying bird re-size it so it fits nicely arrange to your liking and add your drop shadow.
Open a paper of choice I used paper 8 copy and paste it as a new layer move it to the bottom of all your elements and tubes. Apply your mask then merge group. Arrange to your liking then I added a tiny bit of noise. You can do this by going to adjust-add/remove noise and add what you'd like.
Finally add your name in a color and font of choice apply the same noise settings you used. Then apply your gradient glow, my settings shown in the screen-shot below. Duplicate your text layer and change the blend mode to hard light then merge down and add your drop shadow.

Eye Candy 400 - Gradient Glow
Fonts of choice - I am using a pixel font for the copyright and Allison ROB for the name.
Ready?
Let's get started!
Open up a new canvas 700x700.
Open up frame 6 from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer re-size it if you need to. Now take your magic wand and click inside each of the squares once they're all selected go to selections-modify-expand by 3 now add a new layer then open up paper 1 from the kit copy and paste it INTO the selections. Select none and move it below the frame layer. Still on the paper layer open up the clocks element from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer re-size it so it fits nicely then change the blend mode to darken and duplicate it. Open up the flower scatter from the kit copy and paste it over the clocks again re-sizing it so it fits nicely. You can add a drop shadow to your frame I used
H 1
V 1
Opacity 50
Blur 5.00
Color Black
Now we can copy and paste your tube as a new layer. If your tube is like mine which isn't a full tube then you can arrange it to where you like and for mine I made it look like she was partly in the frame. To do this duplicate your tube and move one below the frame then use your eraser tool to erase on the TOP tube layer where you want it to look like shes inside. Add the same drop shadow to the BOTTOM tube layer.
Open up the tree element from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer re-size it so it fits there nicely. Duplicate and mirror it arrange it on the other side.
Copy and paste the flower patch near the bottom right of the frame add the same drop shadow as earlier.
Copy and paste the butterflies2 element re-size them so they fit nicely move this below the flower patch.
Open up the greenery element from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer again re-sizing so it fits nicely. Move it below the tree layers and on the side of the frame. Duplicate and mirror arrange it on the other side of the frame.
I placed the bunny near the bottom left by the flower patch re-sizing it so it fit there nicely and adding the same drop shadow as earlier. I did the same with the bird house but its on the left of the tag.
Open up frame 5 from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer arrange it where you'd like so it will show near the top part of the tag then arrange it so its under the frame. Duplicate and mirror until it shows under the whole frame then merge them together. Add the same drop shadow.
Now in a font and color of choice add your name then apply a fat gradient glow I used white. Settings I used shown in the screen-shot below. Then again add the same drop shadow.

What you'll need:
You'll need a tube of choice I am using a gorgeous tube by Ismael Rac. Which you can purchase at his store HERE.
A gorgeous PTU kit by Inzpired Creationz called Wicked Valentine which you can find purchase at Rac's store HERE.
This is an exclusive kit to match the tube.
Fonts of choice - I am using a pixel font for the copyright and Carpenter ICG for the name.
Ready?
Let's get started!
Open a new canvas 650 x 250.
Copy and paste your tube or close up as a new layer and arrange it to your liking, duplicate it and move it where you want continue to do that until the canvas is covered. Then merge all these layers together and duplicate then go to adjust-blur-gauassian blur set to 3 and change the blend mode to overlay.
Open up paper 10 from the kit copy and paste it on top of the duplicated tube layer change the blend mode to screen then duplicate it and change the blend mode of that layer to soft light. Open up paper 9 copy and paste it on top of the duplicated paper layer and change the blend mode to Color L lower the opacity a bit.
Open up scattered hearts 2 from the kit copy and paste them as a new layer near the bottom part of your tag re-size them so they fit nicely.
Open up scattered hearts 1 from the kit copy and paste them as a new layer re-size and arrange to your liking.
Now copy and paste your tube as a new layer arrange and re-size to your liking then duplicate go to adjust-blur-gaussian blur set to 3 and change the blend mode to soft light.
Copy and paste the sparkles from the kit re-size and arrange them to your liking, this layer should be over the tube.
Now we're going to do the borders. Go to the very bottom layer of your canvas it should be blank click it then go to selections-modify-contract by 6 then invert add a new layer flood fill with a color of choice then add some noise if you like. Arrange this layer so its at the top of your layers. Repeat these steps but change the number you contract by to 3.
Now in a font and color of choice add your name in a color of choice then go to selections-select all-float-defloat-modify and expand by 2 then add a new layer and flood fill with a color of choice then go to selections-modify and expand by 2 again add a new layer and flood fill with the same color you typed out your name in. Arrange that layer below everything other font layer and add a drop shadow I used H 1 V 1 Opacity 60 Blur 6.00 Color Black.
Now for the avatar all I did was open up a new canvas 150x150 closed off the border layers and copyright layers on my banner then copy merged and pasted it as a new layer on the 150x150 canvas. Arrange it to your liking even re-size it a little if you want. Then again go to the bottom layer then go to selections-modify-contract by 6 then invert add a new layer and flood fill with the same color as you did on the banner. Arrange this layer so its at the top of your layers. Repeat these steps but change the number you contract by to 3.

Deselect then duplicate the tube in the frame and mirror it then merge down and change the blend mode to soft light.
