CT Freek's Creations: "Irish Charm" Tutorial

This Tutorial was written by me, any resemblance to another tutorial is completely unintentional.  I am using Photoshop CS5 for this tutorial. Tube Happy Beer by Elias Chatzoudis. You can find it in his personal store and must have a valid license to use it.  Scrap Kit "Irish Charm" by Freek's Creations Font AuldMagick
Let's get started.  Open a new canvas 851x315. Now open the Frame and drag into your blank canvas.   Re-size to your liking. Duplicate it and then flip horizontally, position opposite of the original frame.  Merge them.  Use your magic wand tool to select the inside of the frames and then  Select>Modify>Expand....6. Create a new layer under the frames and then create a gradient with the colors #f09441 & #19bc62. Fill inside the marching ants. Now Bring in your close up and position behind the frame.  Duplicate and move position each in one frame together.  Merge Down.  Duplicate the merged layer and place behind the other frame.  Select>Inverse, and then hit delete on your keyboard.  Duplicate each merged close up layer and then merge them into a single layer. Select>Inverse and then Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur...6.  Then Select None.  Blending mode on blurred layer- Screen Blending mode on original close up- Soft Light .Bring in your tube and re-size and position to your liking. 
Now time for the elements:  Balloons_2 Banner Cake Calender Coin Flag Flower Flower_2 Harp Hat Rainbow Ribbon_3 Whiskey
place them to your liking and then use the drop shadow on them like this, including the tube: 

Add your copyright and then it's time to do the  name.  I used the font AuldMagick at 95 px. with the color black.  Then I added Stroke like so: 

Then I added drop shadow to it like I did to the other elements.  And that's it! TY for looking at my tutorial!
