Let's start!
Open a new canvas, size 700x650.
Open the template and move it on to the canvas.
Remove the raster layer and layers 6-12.
Starting with layer 5, take a close up of the Kay tube and flip horizontally and change the tube to Luminosity. Create a clipping mask to the circle then select the pixels the circle and change to #4c4d4e.
Duplicate layer 5 and move the duplicate above the tube close up. Change the top circle to Screen and add a gradient overlay using #6bc2cf and white.
Take frame 2 and place it over layer 5 so it frames the circle. Resize as needed and add a drop shadow.
Place paper 15 over layer 4 and create a clipping mask. Select the pixels of layer 4 and expand by 2. Add a layer below and fill with white then add a silver noise and a drop shadow.
Place paper 2 over layer 3 and create a clipping mask. Select the pixels of layer 3 and expand by 2. Add a layer below and fill with white then add a silver noise and a drop shadow.
Place paper 13 over layer 2 and create a clipping mask. Select the pixels of layer 2 and expand by 2. Add a layer below and fill with white then add a silver noise and a drop shadow.
Place paper 10 over layer 1 and create a clipping mask. Select the pixels of layer 1 and expand by 2. Add a layer below and fill with white then add a silver noise and a drop shadow.
Now place the cool down tube in front of the template and to the right of the ribbon frame. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Place the bag on the far left. Resize & add a drop shadow.
On top of the bag, place the butterfly. Resize & add a drop shadow.
In front of the bag, place the candy. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Between the candy and the bag, place the rose petals. Resize & add a drop shadow.
To the right of the bag, place the love letter. Resize & add a drop shadow.
In front of the letter and bag, where they meet, place flowers1 and 3. Resize & add a drop shadow.
To the right of the love letter, with a little space in between, place the gift. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Place the wax seal touching the love letter and rotate to the left a little. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Place heart2 to the right of the wax seal. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Behind the two elements just placed and the gift, place flower1. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Between heart2 and the gift, place the rose petals. Resize & add a drop shadow.
To the right of the gift, place the sugar cookies. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Between the cookies and gift's lid, place button1. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Behind the gift lid, place the teddy bear. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Behind the teddy bear, place the mug. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Between the elements and the tube, place the love scatter.
Behind the bag on the left, place ribbon1 so just a little peeks out. Resize & add a drop shadow.
Duplicate the ribbon and place it behind the mug and teddy bear on the right.
Take the bubbles and place them on the left side so they sit on the ribbon frame a little but are behind the elements in front. Flip horizontally, resize, and duplicate.
Move the duplicate to the right side behind the tube and flip horizontally.
Behind the tube on the right, place the sparkles. Rotate and resize so they curve along with the circles and tube. Erase any sparkles that cover the close up.
Take a few copies of the beads and place them behind the template to fill the empty spaces.
