I am not going to explane how to copy and paste, be creative or look at my tag for placement 😉

1.) Open a new raster layer 900x900 / for my background I used BC-Mexico_PP (1) and 
BC-Mexico_El (53)/ apply Becky_Mask on both

2.) Copy and paste MexicoBG as new layer / Effects / Edge Effects / Enhance 2x

3.) Set layer to Luminance / Opacity 60

4.) Duplicate your BC-Mexico_El (53) layer and move it on top of your "luminance" layer

5.) Duplicate this layer again / merge down

6.) Open the wood frame and paste as new layer / for placement look at my tag

7.) I added the round frame to the supplies, but maybe you want to make your own flag

8.) Open a new canvas and draw your flag

9.) Effects / Alien Skin Xenofex 2 / Flag

10.) Get your text on the frame / Ellipse Tool / background none / foreground black

11.) Text Tool / on my tag I made each letter in a different color

12.) Now hide the Ellipse layer and convert to raster layer

13.) Add drop shadow

14.) Now start adding the elements and the tube and add drop shadow

15.) When you are happy with your tag, add the artist copyright and your license

16.) Type your name / again I used different colors on each letter

17.) Convert to raster layer / Effects / Eye candy / Gradient Glow

18.) Add a drop shadow
