-----------------------

Open template, R/S90%, Images- canvas size 600x600
i removed all of the stars and heart layers, I then removed all
"shadow(delete)" layers, only because i like my own drop shadows


Select blackBG selections- all- float- defloat, open paper3, C/P onto your canvas, selections- invert- delete. select none, remove O/L. add outer glow, add noise,  D/S.

Select pinkBG selections- all- float- defloat, paper2 R/S to 80%, C/P onto your canvas, selections- invert- delete. select none, remove O/L. add outer glow, add noise,  D/S.

Selecting each inner rectangle, square and circle, fill it with paper like you did above
i choose paper 5 for the circle and square, then paper 4, for the two long rectangles
Now on all the hot pink outer layers i used paper 7 to fill in those like above as well

Also put this paper layer on the outer hot pink around garvalicious wordart
adding drop shadows to all of the outer black layers , on your wordart "garv" layer
i applied inner bevel, using settings of choice. Open tube of choice, C/P

Place tube in the center apply outer glow to your tube,
applying xero- moodlight settings: light1 clicked, 128, 30, 161, 5, 0,
subtle clicked, or use settings of choice
