~Here We Go~

This template has a Resolution of 762 Pixels Per Inch - you might want to Resize and change that to 72ppi (on your duplicate of course).

Open Paper 11; copy; Paste above Large Rectangle layer.  Resize paper 75%. 

On Large Rectangle Select All; Float; Defloat; Modify; Expand by 1.  With Move Tool, place the paper where you like.  Invert Selection; click delete on Paper.  Select None.  Delete template layer.

On Right Rectangle layer Select All; Float; Defloat; Modify; Expand by 1.  Duplicate layer; keep selected.  Open Paper 3; copy; Paste Into Selection.  Select None.  Delete template layer.

On Small Circle layer Select All; Float; Defloat; Modify; Expand by 2.  Duplicate layer; keep selected.  Open Paper 6; copy; Paste Into Selection.  Select None.  Delete template layer.

I did not modify the Large Circle - Merge visible with small circle's paper.  Copy and paste Flower 2 above this merged layer.  Resize to fit and move into position.  Change the Blend Mode to Multiply.

On Left Rectangle layer Select All; Float; Defloat; Modify; Expand by 1.  Duplicate layer; keep selected.  Open Paper 7; copy; Paste Into Selection.  Select None.  Delete template layer.

On Square layer Select All; Float; Defloat; Modify; Expand by 1.  Duplicate layer; keep selected.  Open Paper 4; copy; Paste Into Selection.  Select None.  I also added close-up tube and changed Blend Mode to Screen.

On Row of Squares layer, Fill with Color #95723c (Kit Color).  Apply Texture/Weave with these settings:
Gap 1
Width 2
Opacity 6
Fill Gaps - Weave & Gap Color #352a19 (Kit Color)

For my tag, I resized the wordart 90%.  With Magic Wand select the 5 and the " marks.  Copy and paste Close-up of your Tube.  Keep selected - copy and paste Paper 1.

Invert selection; hit Delete on tube layer and paper layer.  Select non.

Apply Xero Porcelain to close-up tube (Default settings).  Change Blend Mode to Soft Light.

On the paper, I applied a very thin Black Gradient Glow.  You could also use a thin dark drop shadow.

I left the two dotted layers as-is.

Add whatever other elements from the kit that you would like to decorate your tag with.  I used:  Scatter, Leaves 1, Flower Cluster, Squirrel, Bird, and Birdhouse.

I resized all layers so that my tag would be less than 600x600.

Add Drop Shadows as you see fit for your layers.

Now select your Font and add your Name.

Add the proper Crediting for the artwork you are using.

Delete the white background layer; merge visible; save tag in PNG Format.

Thank you for trying my tutorial.
