Open a new image 650x650 and flood fill white,
I am trying to make my tags smaller so I am going to start with
a bit smaller work area, this is your choice if you want
to make a larger tag.

Open CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_paper02 resize this by
85% and c/p as a new layer, apply a mask of choice, I used
Artmama's mask 06

Now lets open CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_frame3
c/p as a new layer, move it up just a bit on the mask, now
grab your magic wand and click inside each opening, and then
expand by about 8 or 9, now invert, and then open
CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_paper01 c/p as a new layer
below the frame layer, resize this by about 80% and then hit
delete. Now open CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_sheetmusic
c/p as a new layer above this paper and hit delete, now Select none,
Turn the opacity down to about 50% and then change the blend
mode on this layer to Luminance. Now lets open
CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_flower4 c/p as a new layer
arrange to right above the mask layer and then resize by
85%, place this towards the top left of your frame,
Now open CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_flower3
c/p as a new layer right above the other flower layer,
resize this by 90% and place with the flower your just
added, duplicate and mirror and bring this back with the other
flowers, Now open CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_flower2
c/p as a new layer resize by 65%, I duplicated mine and flipped
it, Now duplicate this flower again and mirror, leaving on the
right side of the frame peeking out, duplicate and flip and
have this one peeking out from the bottom right of the frame.
Now we are going to work above the frame layer, we will be
using Flower2 and Flower3 again so you can either duplicate
the ones you have added already or c/p each again,
I resized from original size on these by 45% and 40%
I duplicated Flower3 three times and Flower2 3 times as well
Now lets open CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_greenery2
c/p as a new layer place this layer right above the frame layer
mirror and then resize by 45% place along the bottom of
the frame, duplicate and rotate to the left by 15% go back
to the original and duplicate again, this time rotate to the right
by 90% place along the right side of the frame, Now lets open
CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_greenerye and c/p as a new
layer, this will be below the flowers but above the other greenery
resize by 45% I duplicated mine a few times, mirrored and rotated
a few as well, now open CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_flower5
c/p as a new layer and resize this by 45% I duplicated this to a total
of 3 roses, I rotated one to the left by 15% and then one to the
left by 90% arrange with your other flowers, now lets open
CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_glittermesh c/p as a new layer
arrange to right above the mask layer, mirror this and turn the
opacity down to 40% on this layer, Now lets open
CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_ribbon2 c/p as a new layer
arrange this layer to right above the frame layer and place along
the bottom of the frame, open CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_hearts
c/p as a new layer, arrange this layer to right above your ROSES layers
but below your other flower layers, resize by 54% and place with your
flowers on the right side of the frame, now lets open
CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_dragonfly c/p as a new layer
mirror and then resize by 65% and place at the top left of the frame
Open CreatedbyJill_DarkSideoftheMoon_butterflies and c/p as a new
layer resize by 65% and then rotate to the right by 75%
Now on my tag I did use gamma correction on the roses to brighten
them just a bit, I also changed the hue and saturation on my butterflies
a bit and then used gamma correction on those as well, when you
are happy with your tag, add a dropshadow of choice to your elements
and a tube or tubes of choice, hide the white background layer and
merge visible.

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
