Open a new image 750x750 and flood fill white,

arrange on one of the flowers. when you are happy with your tag add
a drop shadow and tube or tubes of choice, hide the white background
layer and merge visible. (I did not drop shadow the ribbons on the top left)

I always resize my finished tag BEFORE adding my copyright info,
it makes this seem clearer, add your name and copy right information
and Save the way you prefer to save tags,
I hope you enjoyed this tut
