2nd tube layer.
Add the earlier drop shadow as well.

Open a flower element.

Position as wanted on a side of the tag.
Erase part of the stem if needed to give illusion
of the flower being behind items when they
in fact are not.

Merge all layers visible.
Add artist copyright information & name.
Save as png.
