Copy and paste flower 7,8, and 9.  Drag just below the frame and circle layers, see sample

example.  Copy and paste the ships wheel. Copy and paste the tube, add dropshadow. Copy and
paste scroll 1 move over the tube hand as the example and lower the opacity of the scroll
until you can see the hand below it, erase only the scroll that is above the hand, so it looks
like the tube is holding the scroll.
Crop and resize.  I resized mine to 500 pixels.  Make sure the DPI
is at 72.  Add your name.  I added a gradient glow to the name on the following settings:
Basic Tab: Glow width 3, Soft corners 25%, Overall opacity 100%
color Tab: using black, drag a second tab to 3/4 accross so there are 2 black tabs.
Add your copyrights for the tube.  Don't forget to add your license number
if using a PTU tube.
Merge visible and save! you're done! Simple and easy. 
I would love to see what you made!
