lets get started
open a new raster layer 1000x1000
i know that large but we resize later :)
open 7 of your kit elements that will match together
choose a frame from your kit or an element that you can make into a frame
if you are going to make the frame
on your work layer copy paste the element you have chosen for the frame
and image/resize by 30%
plugin : muras/meister copies
on the bottom left drop down choose encircle
with the settings below

in your layer pallette change the layer name to frame
now back to your kit find a nice paper and copy /paste as new layer
drag below your frame layer
highlight your frame layer
click in side the frame and selections /modify/expand by 5
back to selections and click invert
highlight your paper layer and hit delete key on your keyboard
choosing one at a time place your other elements
by copy /pasting as new layer with each element
move your elements around untill you have them how you like them
now add your tube
if needed resize to fit
so that it isn't overpowering your work area
add a drop shadow of choice
once this is done layers /merge/merge visible
you can make some word art using your font you have chosen

add a new raster layer drag below your word art layer
choosing a contrasting color
use your paint brush and fill inside the marching ants making sure

once you have finished painting on your word art layer right click and merge down
repeat this with your name
except once you have merged the two layer ( name /paint)
