Materials needed:

A scrapkit from A space between

Called Backyard friends

A tube or image of choice

I chose one from ©Simona Candini  @ www.mytubedart.com

Copy element3, paste as a new layer.

Resize 35%

Move a little to the right.

Duplicate this layer, mirror and merge these 2 layers.

Move to the bottom left corner of the frame.

Layers duplicate, image mirror, merge these 2 layers together.

Copy element38 and paste as a new layer.

Move to the bottom left corner of the frame.

Layers duplicate, image mirror.

Now it's time to add your image/photo, you can use a tube too, choose a paper instead and then add your tube.

Activate the frame layer.

Select the inside of the frame with your magic wand, 

selections expand 8 pixels.

Make a new layer beneath your frame layer.

Copy your image and paste into selection**

**Be careful when pasting images or photos into selection, they may get deformed or stretched

and it doesn't look very pretty.

This image I used is deformed slightly but it still looks ok.

If your photo or image doesn't fit that frame you just paste your image/photo as a new layer underneath the frame layer, selections invert and hit delete.

Give everything a dropshadow you like, Crop your image merged opaque, 

Add the correct ©info, your license number and name after you have resized

Save as JPG or export as PNG
