LET'S BEGIN
1. Open a new canvas 600 x 600 white background

3. Go to your FO_frame-laced and "edit", "copy", then back to your main canvas and "edit", "paste as a new layer" then go up to "Image", then "Free Rotate" and rotate to the right by 90 degrees All layers and rotate single layer around canvas center UNCHECKED (see my print screen below for the settings)

On your layers palette right click on the top layer (salmon bow) and "merge down" (merging your two bow layers together. Now you can move the bow to the upper right hand corner of the frame (see my print screen below for what I have now)
12. With your bow layer activated go to "Layers", "Duplicate", then "Image", "Mirror" then on your layer palette right click on your duplicated layer and "merge down" (merging your 2 bow layers to one). On your layer palette drag your bow layer all the way down to just above your white bottom layer. (see my print screen for what I have now)

**Note** My preview shows some "noise" added to my tag. If you'd like to do that as well and don't know how to add noise to a tag you can use the "DSB Flux Filter - Bright Noise". I have written a tutorial on how to use this filter if you'd like to try the tutorial to add the noise to your tag.
Animation really isn't necessary with this tag as it looks just as nice without ;)
I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial and as always I love to see your results and would love even more to post them on my website on the "Tutorials Results" page. Just go to my "contact me" page and send me a message. ~Ladyhawwk~
