Close out e9e2bc layer for a moment.
Take swirls (one of each), copy and paste as new layers.
Duplicate 3 of each, (total of 6)
Move them around just to make them hang out of the frame.
(I flipped, mirrored, and rotated mine)
Add drop shadow of your choice.
Now you can open e9e2bc layer
(If your swirls are above the e9e2bc layer go ahead and move the e9e2bc layer above them)
You can still move your swirls to your liking.
You still with me??? Okay lets move on.
Open Glitters 1 and 2, drag from layers palette over the e9e2bc layer
(move glitters to your liking)
Click on e9e2bc layer in palette, selections, select all, float, defloat, invert
Click on each glitter and hit delete to remove extra glitter.
I lowered opacity to 75 on glitter.
Now…. Open wrap 1, resize to 60%, and place toward bottom of frame.
Click center of frame, modify, expand 15, and select invert.
Use your eraser tool to erase the end of the ribbon on the wrap layer.
Select none
Add Drop shadow of choice to wrap layer.
Open Clock, copy, paste as new layer,
Move to upper right corner of frame
(Add drop shadow of your choice, I love drop shadows)
Open balloon 3, resize to 30%, mirror, copy paste as new layer, and move to upper corner
Open balloons 5 and 6, resize to 30%, also open string 1 and resize to 30%,

And again add drop shadow (told you guys)
Now open Element 1, resize to75%, copy and paste and new layer and move towards the bottom of tag.
Open Glass 2, copy and paste as new layer
Move above element 1, duplicate glass 2, move duplicated layer over the element 1, and now take
Your eraser tool and erase the bottom of the left glass,
(To make it look like the party favor (element 1) is going through the glasses)
Again add drop shadow to very bottom glass layer.
Open champagne, resize to 70%, place of your choice or you can do as mine is.
Open word 2 and 4 and resize to 25%.
Place at the top of your frame. You may need to move your balloons over a bit.
Now open tube of choice.
I used Keith Garvey. But your are welcome to use your tube of choice.
Copy and paste as new layer, resize if needed. Place on the left side of the tag.
Now is a good time to place copyright information. As well as your own.
And now just add your name!
And you’re done!
If you want to add a little animation continue….
I am adding a little sparkle to my glasses.
Duplicate top layer of glasses x3

Here in SA Tx we don't get much snow. Well we don't get any snow. But when I was 9 we did, and I built my first snowman, and ever since then I've Loved snowmen. I collect them, I've got over 300 hundred of them all different. But here is a tag I made with some cute snowmen I got from Colleneland. These are PTU tubes so you'll have to purchase them. The Scrap Kit is from Tracy. The kit is called Wynter Thyme. It too is a freebie and can find it on her blogger site. She had TONS of great free kits.
