Let's begin!
Open a new canvas, size 650x650.
Move Frame5 on to the canvas. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Place Paper6 behind the frame. Resize and erase anything outside the frame.

Move the tube in front of the frame on the left. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Take another copy of the tube and place it behind the frame and on top of the paper. Flip horizontally and change to luminosity.

On the right side of the frame place the Cage. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Place the Bow on top of the Cage toward the point. Resize & add a light drop shadow.
Move Bird2 behind the cage. Resize and position it where you want it then erase the vertical bars of the cage in the back. This way the bird will appear to be inside the cage. Add a drop shadow.

In front of the cage at the bottom place Flower 2 then Flower 1 and then Flower 2 again. Resize so the blue flowers are smaller than the purple flower. Add a drop shadow to each flower.
Behind the tube and to the left of her, place Flower1 and then Flower 2 right next to it and to the left. Make Flower1 larger than Flower2. Resize and add a drop shadow.

Behind the cage on the right place the JarofFlowers. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Behind the JarofFlowers place the Brushes. Resize & add a drop shadow.

Behind the cage on the left side place the Box. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Behind the box place Cupcake1 & Cupcake2. Place Cupcake1 in front of Cupcake2 so Cupcake1 is behind the tube. Resize & add a drop shadow.

Take Vine 2 and place it behind everything  and on top of the frame. Rotate and resize it so it is vertical in the middle of the frame and covers a little behind the cage. Add a drop shadow.
Move another copy of Vine2 on the left vertical side of the frame. Make it similar to the one in the middle. Resize & add a drop shadow.

Move the Vine behind everything around the cage. Have the bulk of the vines cover empty space behind the flowers and cage. Resize & add a drop shadow.

Place the String behind the tube. Resize & add a drop shadow. It should be intertwined with other elements.

Move the FlowerStem to the middle of the frame behind the tube. Move it on top of the Vine2 later. Resize, flip horizontally, & add a drop shadow.

Between the Vine2 and the FlowerStem in the middle of the frame, place the floating petals. Rotate or flip so it is vertical and resize.

Move the LightScatter behind the tube on the left. Resize so just little pieces are seen here and there around the vine. Erase any parts outside the frame.
Take another copy of the LightScatter and move it to the right side. Flip it horizontally and move around so you can see it in the cage and around the vines. Erase any parts covering the tube's face and outside the frame.

Place the Butterflies behind the tube on the left in the bottom corner. Use two of the medium size butterflies and one tiny one. Resize & add a drop shadow.

Move another copy of the butterflies over on the right side up of the frame toward the upper corner. Use the larger butterfly and the tiny one. Resize & add a drop shadow.

Mask
Open a new canvas, size 600x600.
Open Paper3 and resize to 600x600. Move on to the canvas.
Open the mask and make sure it's 600x600 and move on top of the paper.
Remove the white background and move it behind the frame. Resize and stretch so it's evenly outside the frame on all side.
