Now you can use elements of choice or you can use the ones I did. Please use my tag as a reference!

SandCastle Mirror resize 30% place at bottom left of tag
SandBucket resize 25% then again at 50% place beside the castle
Towel Lounge resize 50% place at bottom right of tag
Beach Chair resize 2 times at 50% then again 75% place on top of towel under umbrella.
Beach Ball resize 2 times 50% place at bottom middle of tag
Sun resize 2 times 50% place behind wordart layer to the top left of tag
Shell 3,01,2, and 1 resize 25% place in line across middle of tag

Now add a drop shadow to all layers



*****Optional for your tube******

I was turned on to this trick by a good friend of my named Kim. You can check her out Click Here See Kim!

On your tube if you want to make it kinda pop out a little more here is something you can do.

Duplicate your tube layer on the copy layer add a gaussian blur of 2.00 and move it below the original layer. On the original layer blend mode to hard light and change the opacity to 73. Merge the layer down and sharpen!

Crop/resize tag to your preference - add copyright/license & watermark & name ..Save as PNG or JPEG
