Any resemblance to another

I am using a tube by Sara Butcher.
You can purchase this tube at
CDO.

I am also using the PTU Scrap Angels Among Us

Open a 700x700 new image.
Open up your tube and
scrap supplies of choice as well.

Paste a scrap paper of choice as
a new layer. Apply the mask
MB & SW Mask 32.
Merge group. Duplicate this
layer once. Mirror.
Merge the two mask layers together.

Open a left side corner doodle
element. Resize 70% or as needed.
Paste as a new layer on the tag.
Move down slightly on your tag.

Open a bush element.
Resize 60%. Paste as a new
layer. Position this layer underneth
the doodle layer. You want the bush
to be centered at the corner
of the doodle.

Open a 2nd bush/plant element.
Resize this one 55%.
Paste as a new layer below the
1st bush layer. But you want to position
this layer so it is vertically above the
original bush.

Open a flower bush. Resize 40%.
Paste as a new layer & position by
the original bush on the right side.
Duplicate the flower bush once.
Move the copy beside the orignal
layer so you have the two side by side.

Copy and paste your main tube.
Position your tube so it appears
to be having a seat on the doodle
by all the plants.

Open a cloud element.
Resize 75%.
Paste above the mask layer
on the upper right side of the tag.

Drop shadow the bushes and flower
layers. Also drop shadow the tube

Open a ribbon lanterns element.
Resize 50%. Paste as a new layer.
You want this layer behind the
plant layers and above the cloud layer.
Position on your tag so the lanterns
are near the top & appear to be
hanging in the sky.

Open an angel statue from the scrap.
Resize 25% and 50% once each
or as needed.
Paste as a new layer. Position this layer
on a plant behind your main tube. You
want it sort of tucked away but still
very visible.

Duplicate the angel statue layer once.
Move the copy layer to along the left
vertical side of the plants. Position as wanted
on the left side.

Merge layers visible. Crop to
desired size. Add artist copyright
information and name.

Now if you don't wish to animate, you
can save your tag now.
To animate, please continue.
You will need to put your tag on
a white background.

Open your animation in Animaiton
Shop or AS. Edit select all.
Animation - resize animation
Percentage 40
Make sure also smart size
and keep ratio are both checked.
Click okay.

Copy your tag as copy merged. Now go to Animation
shop
and paste as a new animation.
Duplicate for the required number of frames
as your animation has.

For the animation I am using, it has 15
frames. This means I have to duplicate
the tag image for a total of 15 frames.
To duplicate, hold down Ctrl and repeatedly
press the L button.
Down on the bottom right corner of AS,
it will show how many frames you have.

Once you have all the frames needed,
edit - select all.
Now on your animation, select all - copy.
Drag onto your tag image.
Making sure you still have all the frames
selected, go to Animation -
Frame Properties. Change the speed to 20.

Select all - view animation.
If happy, save as gif
