Supplies Needed:

 1 up-close tube of choice. I am using the work of Ismael Rac, and you can buy this tube and more at his store.

Please do not use his work if you do not have a license.

Scrapkit I am using is called vintage.  You can download it here.

Mask by Vix it's Vix_BigMask005 and you can download it on her blog.

Put these in your mask folder.

Let's get started!

Open the photo from and resize to 600 pixels.(see screenshot) 

 Now go to image>resize Canvas, and make it 700X700 so you have

room to work.

Use your magic wand both tolerance and feather on 0, and click inside the frame.  Selections>modify>expand by 5 pixels.

Pick a paper and copy and paste it under the frame layer, now copy and paste your tube on top of it. go to selections>

invert, and on both the paper and tube layer hit the delete button, that will take care of the overhang.  Now play with the

blend mode of your tube, I used overlay.  Add a drop shadow to the frame, I used V&H-0 Opacity-40, and blur-8.00. Now merge visible.

Now duplicate twice,on bottom layer go to image>rotate>free rotate.  Left 10.00, make sure all layers is NOT checked.  

Move up to the next layer and repeat, but change the direction from left to right.  Add elements of choice.

Now add a new layer and move it to the bottom, flood fill with a matching color and resize to 650X650 pixels, make sure

all layers is not checked.  Now appy Vix_BigMask005(see screenshot for settings.)

 Merge group. Add copyright, taggers mark and name.

if you want to save it with a clear background save as a png, if you want the white background then save as a jpg and your all done.
