Let's get started

Open up your template and remove the copyright layer and the Music notes layer.
Click on the large circle layer in your layer palette and go to selections/select all float/defloat and modify and expand by 2 add a new raster layer and flood fill this layer with a color or paper. Then remove the circle layer. After you have done this change your foreground color to another color or paper of choice and set the thickness to around 15 and draw a border around your circle.

Next change your background fill to a paper or color of choice and using your eclipse preset shape draw out another circle and place this just above the other circle. Again change your foreground color to another paper or color of choice and draw a border around this circle as well.

Next click on your rectangle layers and go to selections select all float, defloat and add a new raster layer and flood fill this with a color or paper of choice. Remove the rectangle layer.

Do the same steps as above for your rectangle frame layers. Then using your rectangle preset shape draw out two skinny rectangles in the middle of the rectangles that you had just created. Add any text that you might like to these rectangles.

Click on the frames layer and go to selections select all float, defloat, modify expand by 2 and add a new raster layer and flood fill the frames with a color or paper of choice. Remove the frame layer.

Keep the marching ants around the insides of the frames and add your tube of choice to each of the frame layers. Continue with adding a paper or color of choice to the frame outlines.
Remove the frame outlines.

Next place your main tube where desired on your tag and add a shadow of choice to the frame. Then add your elements where you desire on your tag and add a shadow of choice.

Add your Text and copyright to your tag add your masks to your tag.

If you would like to animate the tag place the light in the lens of the camera. Merge all layers and copy and paste it into animation shop as a new animation. Then go back to psp and remove the light from your tag and copy and paste it after current animation and go to edit select all and lower the speed of the animation down to about 70.
Save your tag and you are done.
