Open up paper 7, copy and paste as new layer, send to just below your square frames. Using your wand tool, match mode: color, tolerance 50, mode add(shift), on your frame layer, click on the inside of the frame, as close to the inside border as possible, selection- modify, expand by 4, selections, invert, now on your paper layer hit delete, select none.
Using same method add paper 6 to the inside of the circle frame.
Open up paper8, copy and paste as new layer, go to your rectangle layer, select all, select float, select invert, on your new paper layer, hit delete, select none. Now delete the white rectangle.

Create new raster layer, flood fill with pink, I used # #ffeaee open up your mask image and minimize it. Back on your image go to layers, New Mask Layers, From Image, in the source window find the mask, have source luminance checked and click ok. In your layers window you will see 3 layers of the mask, go to top one of those 3, right click, merge group. If you need to align the mask, just go to pick tool and using the lil arrows stretch it to where you want it. I added noise to my mask, same settings as in the tag.
Merge visible again, save as a .png and voila your done!

Lets get started!
Open up Template, Shift D, then close out original. Delete the Info Layer.
Open up paper cup5sm copy and paste as new layer, arrange it just above red circle layer, on circle layer, select all, select float, select invert, on paper layer hut delete, select none.
Continue replacing template parts in the same way as follows:
Paper cup9sm for gray circle and the LtGrayStrip.
Paper cup10sm for gray circle 1.
Paper cup2sm for rectangle.
Paper cup12sm for white circle. Then apply noise at 33% monochrome and Gaussian checked.
Paper cup2sm for the small white circle and the DkGrayStrip.
Now delete all the original sections you replaced.
Add your close up tube the same way. Then add your full tube of choice.
Choose a pink tone from your tube. I chose #d5357a.
Create new raster layer and floodfill it with that color, duplicate. Using same method replace both the black and the red lines. Deleting the original afterward.
Now duplicate your close up tube, on bottom close up tube change your opacity to 75% and the blend mode to Luminance(L).
On your top close up layer, change the opacity to 75% and the blend mode to screen.
Now go to effects, plug-ins, alien eye candy - gradient glow with settings below. The gray color is #c0c0c0 and the pink is #d5357a.
On each of the replaced template shapes apply the gg. When you get to the dotted lines, after applying the gg, go to adjust, sharpen more.
New raster layer, flood-fill white,select the big S, float, invert, on white layer hit delete, select none. Apply same noise as before and then same gg. Delete the original big S.
New raster layer, flood-fill it with #d5357a, on the urrender layer, select all, float, invert, on pink layer hit delete, select none. Go to your gg, but change both the colors to white, apply, then adjust add same noise, adjust sharpen more. Apply black d/s with these settings.
Apply the same d/s to the big S.
New raster layer, flood fill white, select your weet layer, float, invert, on your white layer click delete, select none. Apply gg, this time change both color boxes to #d5357a and apply. The add same d/s. Do the exact same thing for the heart layer. Now delete all the original text layers.
To give my tag some dimension, I applied the same d/s to all my template pieces except for the dotted lines.
I applied a d/s of 3,3,70,7. to my main tube and none to my close up.
Now for the elements, open up cupcakeframe 2, copy and paste as new layer, send to bottom and center it to your main circle. Apply the gg with the pink and gray colors, then apply same d/s as you used for your main tube.
Open up cupcakeframe 1, copy and paste as new layer, arrange to top, re-size it 15%, make sure all layers is unchecked, now arrange it just below your small circle, then apply same gg and d/s.
To cover up the straight bottom edge of my main tube, I took element cupheartribbon2sm placed it over the edge, applied same gg, then adjust sharpened more then applied same gg.
Open up cuptwirl2sm, copy and paste as new layer, re-size it 75%, apply same gg and then place it center to your small pink circle.

Open up paper cup5sm copy and paste as new layer, arrange it just above red circle layer, on circle layer, select all, select float, select invert, on paper layer hut delete, select none.
