Add a drop shadow to the frame layer

Blur-2.00
Color- Blk

Open up the cardboard frame in the supplies
Copy and paste as a new layer, I resized this @ 85% Smartsize twice till it
fit behind my frame, then I used the deform tool and brought it in some so it fits
nicely behind the frame as a background, use my sample as a guide.
I also resized my other frame so its not bigger than the cardboard piece, use
my sample as a guide.


Time to decorate.

Open up the stiches in the supplies, copy and paste as a new layer
Resize these @ 60% smartsize 3 times, I put this on the bottom of the
cardboard frame so it looks stapled, I erased the parts that hang off.
Sharpen twice, add the same drop shadow as before. duplicate it once and flip it
so its on the top of the cardboard piece. Use sample as guide.

Open up the ribbon in the supplies, copy and paste as a new layer
Resize this @ 60% smartsize 4 times, then once more @ 85% smartsize
Sharpen once and add the same drop shadow as before.

Open up the buttons in the supplies, I selected the metal one, choose which ever.
Copy and paste as a new layer resize @ 60% smartsize 5 times and sharpen twice
add the same drop shadow as before, duplicate once and place on the ribbon.
Use my sample as a guide to place them or place as you like.

Open up the star in the supplies, copy and paste as a new layer
resize this @ 60% smartsize 4 times and sharpen twice, use same drop shadow
place this on the top of the frame in the left corner, duplicate once and place
other one on the right side of the frame, use my sample as a guide.

Open up the tag in the supplies, copy and paste as a new layer.
Resize this @ 60% smartsize 3 times, sharpen once. add the same drop shadow.

Open up the staples in the supplies, copy and paste as a new layer
resize these @ 50% smartsize once and sharpen twice, duplicate it 3 times and
merge just the staples together, then place on the tag like in my sample or
were you like.

Open up the notebook paper, copy and paste as a new layer
resize this @ 70% smartsize once, sharpen once.
Bring this below all the other layers, add same drop shadow as before.
duplicate this one and mirror it, then merge these two layers together.

Choose your font, Merge all layers visble, Resize if you like, I kept mine as is.

Put your name and any copyright info on the tag, save as a png or jpeg which
ever you like, I like png cause they go on backgrounds better.

Your done!! I hope you enjoyed my tut, I love seeing samples you make :)

left corner of the tag, use example above for placement or place were you like.

this over the papers we just put on the tag so it looks like its holding them.

resize this @ 70% smartsize twice, sharpen once, bring this below all layers
Give it the same drop shadow as before once.

I put this above the background paper we just did, and adjusted it so its
peeking out a little,look at example for an idea, add the same drop
shadow as before, duplicate this once then flip it once
and it will peek out on the bottom as well.

Open up the fence in the supplies (its labeled scrap challenge)
copy and paste this as a new layer, resize twice @ 70% smartsize and sharpen 3 times.

and flip then mirror, make it peek out a little on the bottom as well, use example for guide.

Open up the star in the supplies, copy and paste as a new layer, resize this
@ 70% smartsize 10 times, sharpen twice and use same drop shadow as before
I then duplicated it once and put them both on the right side, top and bottom.

resize this @ 70% smartsize 4 times and place in bottom left corner
sharpen twice and add same drop shadow as before, this is optional you can
