Open the Frame provided in the kit - Copy and paste as new layer on your canvas
I did move to the right so that the edge of the mask shows all the way around
But placement is what you like best!

I colorized the frame
Adjust - Hue & Saturation - Colorize
Hue - 252
Saturation - 48

Open the stars that I made
Copy and paste on the inside of the frame
I duplicated this layer
Arrange as below

Now merge this layer down so you will only have one star layer

Rename this layer - stars

Open your tube - Copy and paste as new layer
The tube I am using is by Abranda Icle Sisson. (Aquarius)

I added a drop shadow to my tube with these settings

Apply the drop shadow again, but this time - use Vertical -1 Horizontal -1

Open the Butterfly - Copy and paste as new layer on your canvas
Resize 50 percent - twice
Place on the upper left of the frame

Copy merged - Open up AS and paste as new animation

Okay, back to your PSP - Go to Edit and undo the Constellation

Go back to your plug-in Constellation and hit Random seed

Copy Merged - back to AS and Paste after current frame

Repeat this one more time until you have 3 frames

Still in AS - Open the file Roses.mng which I included with my supplies

Make sure that all frames are selected - Edit/Select All

Also be sure that all frames of your newly created tag are selected

On the roses file, drag the first frame down to your tag and place on the left side
between the butterfly and your name

I did leave the frame properties display time at 10

You are done..I hope you have learned something along the way and enjoyed doing my tutorial!
