Just remember that my choices of papers and elements is just a suggestion, change it up and make it yours! You don't have to follow mine exactly.

Add a drop shadow of your choosing to tubes & elements throughout. I usually use 1, 1, 50, 5 unless otherwise noted.

Let's get started!

Open your template, shift D to duplicate and close the original. 

Delete the Tracy F. Designs layer.

Change the canvas size to 600 x 850

Fill the template layers with papers by making them active in the layer palette, 

click inside the shape with your magic wand,

selections, invert,

open your paper, copy and paste as a new layer

click delete on your keyboard and deselect.

Delete the original template layer.

I used the following papers on each template layer:

Rectangle 1 and rectangle 2, use paper 1

Grey part of circle, use paper 4

White part of circle use paper 6

Square use paper 13

Square 2, use paper 12

Frame 1 & 2, use paper 7

Move the 2 frame layers so that they are right below each other, then

the two square layers will be right together. Merge the two square layers together.

Selections, select all, float, defloat, invert.

Open your close up tube, mirror, then copy and paste as a new layer

arrange in the frames, click delete on your keyboard, deselect.

Change the blend mode to Luminance(L) and drop the opacity to about 75.

Do the same with your tube in the circle layer.
