Tube of choice, I have used cute art work of Lix which can be found Here

My kit called Summer Fun which can be found Here

Let’s Get Started

Open new transparent image of 700x700

Open scalped frame 1 colorizes to suit your tube, with magic wand select inside the frame. Selection modify expand 4.

Open paper of choice copy and paste as a new layer, colorize if you prefer selection and invert. Hit delete.

While selected copy your tube and paste it inside of your frame so your tube is between your frame and paper. Image resize 120 % selection invert and hit delete. Optional: Lower opacity of this layer to what you like mine is set to 66.

Open template copy and paste as a new layer (this layer goes below all other frames)

Selection- selects all, open paper 3 copy and paste as a new layer and hit delete.

Selection none, effect- inner bevel with these settings:

Bevel round- width 7- smoothness0- Depth 5- Ambience 0- Shininess 0- Color white- Angle 315- Intensity 50- Elevation 30

Drop shadow of choice I have used H&V 1- Opacity 70- Blur 3 Black

Now click on original template- on layer palette change the node to luminance Legacy and lower the opacity to 30

At this point you can open different elements from kit resize  I have resized mine 40 % for bees and butterflies and paste them where you like them to be or you can refer to my tag for placement
