So, let's begin!

*remember to save often!

Open up frame 2, copy frame and paste it as a new IMAGE close the original  Make your canvas size pretty large here so we have enough room 

to work >image>canvas size>1600x1300. 

Add shadow:

V: 3 H: 0 

O: 100 B: 5

Open paper 7, take magic wand, click inside the frame shape selections>modify>expand to 22> make new raster layer and paste the paper into the selection on the new raster layer you just made.

Open sand, copy and paste as a new layer under the frame and paper layer, near the bottom. Duplicate layer, flip to the other side Image>Mirror. Merge layers together. 

Duplicate layer.

Open water, copy and paste as a new layer, place it on top of the sand.

Open tree, copy and paste as a new layer on the top frame, make sure the end of the trunk touches the top of the sand. duplicate layer, rotate 20 degree to the right, send this tree to the bottom layer, pull it up and behind the frame layer as you see in my tag.

Open splash, copy and paste as a new layer just above the 1st tree. 

Pull the splash down to cover the end of the tree trunk.

Open Toucan, resize by 30%, copy and paste as a new layer, place toucan on the top of the 1st tree, add shadow.

Open Parrot, copy and paste as a new layer on the top, 

near the top edge of the frame, add shadow.

Open sun, copy and paste as a new layer under trees, place it between the trees.

Open pineapple, resize to 85%, copy and paste as a new layer on the top, 

near the right edge of the frame, add shadow.

Open lime, resize to 30%, copy and paste as a new layer on the top, 

near the right side to the pineapple, add shadow.

Open orange, resize to 40%, copy and paste as a new layer on the top,

 inbetween the pineapple and lime, add shadow.

Open kiwi, resize to 30%, copy and paste as a new layer on the top,

 inbetween the lime and orange, add shadow.

Open starfish, copy and paste as a new layer on top of the sand.

Open drum, resize to 60%, copy and paste as a new layer behind the starfish.

Add your tube, I used the tube fishtale by eos sparks. resize to 75%, copy and paste the as a new layer under the frame. Pull her out to where the tip of the tail is near the inner edge of the frame.

Grab the lasso, encircle her head and part of the chest and promote the section to a new layer that you want to keep in the tag, then send that layer above the frame layer but beneath the pineapple and drum. cut away any portion that is sticking out from the frame.

*use my tag as a sample*

Open bubbles, copy and paste as a new layer on the top.

Crop down as close to the edges as possible without cutting anything off, 

**a great way to see where the edge of the sparkles is to add a new layer on the very bottom and flood fill it BLACK. This way you can see the edges of anything a light color.**

resize to 650 on the largest side.

[You can go smaller size on this if you prefer]

Add watermarks and copyright info.

Open my word art. Copy and paste, position to the lower right side of the tag.

For the name I used the glass filter and then the gradient glow filter from Eyecandy 4000, I added a shadow.

Save and you are done!

If any part of your tag is blurry you can clear it up by sharpening the layer >adjust>sharpness>sharpen.

I hope you have enjoyed this tut.
