Let's get started

Open your template in PSP & delete credits, small text & small text 2 layers. Resize canvas size 700x700 & floodfill background layer white. Resizing your canvas is your choice at this point, it's just my compulsion to work with a square project.

Layer duplicate & merge both mask layers together.

Select Rectangle layer, select all/float/defloat, copy and paste Paper 1, selections invert and hit delete. Do not deselect. Selections invert, selections/modify/expand 5, new raster layer, floodfill with #a3120f & adjust/add remove noise/uniform monochrome checked/35%.

Select Text layer, select all/float/defloat, copy and paste Paper 3, selections invert and hit delete. Select none and delete original Text layer.

Depending on the tube you are using, you might want to resize at this point. I chose to resize at this point to 500x500.

Select your Circle 2 layer, copy and paste Firework, resize 30% & drop shadow. Centre nicely on your circle.

Copy and paste Bougainville, resize 65% & drop shadow. Position to the left hand side. Trim the ends of the stem if you find they are sticking out the bottom.

Add copyright. Using Waterbrush Rob, Size 60, color #a3120f, type out your name. Centre on your word art and rotate slightly. I then added a noise effect .. adjust/add remove noise/uniform mono checked/35% and then added a size 3 fat color #bc9e58 gradient glow, repeated the gradient glow and then drop shadow.
