Okay, let’s get started!
*Open a canvas 600 x600 flood fill white. I like to have the white so I can see my creation better as I work on it.  We will delete this later.
*Copy Frame 5 and paste as a new layer.  Using your Pick tool set on FREE, grab the top and bring it down a bit to make the frame shorter, then move back towards the top.
*With your Magic Wand (tolerance at 0) click in the center of the frame, return to the white layer and add new layer.  Get Paper 7 and paste into selection on new layer, select none.
*Return to your frame layer and add a black drop shadow, I used these settings:
Offset Vertical 8, Horizontal -7, Opacity 40, Blur 60

*Return to your frame layer, add tube, resize 80%, add white drop shadow with the same settings.
*Add Scrap 01 as a new layer resize 50%, position near the top of the Frame.  With your selection tool, set a 18 feather, select a small portion near the right of Scrap 01 so it looks like it is woven through the frame, delete.
