For this tutorial you will need the following:

Paint Shop Pro, I am using PSP X, you should be able to use any version.

Tube of choice, I am using the artwork of Keith Garvey, which you need a license to use.

Just remember that my choices of papers and elements is just a suggestion, change it up and make it yours! You don't have to follow mine exactly.

Add a drop shadow of your choosing to tubes & elements throughout. I usually use 1, 1, 50, 5 unless otherwise noted.

click delete on your keyboard. Leave selected.

Open your tube, copy and paste as a new layer, arrange in the right 
side of the frame, erase the bits that hang out on the bottom.

Add the following elements, check my tag for exact placement:
