I am using the awesome artwork of  Sheokate
The tube is called "Eleanor" 
You need a license to use this tube, do not use without a license.
You can find this tube at Elegance Fly store HERE


I used PSPX6...but any of them should work.

Exclusive kit Poseidon's Passion, by PPP, this kit is awesome.

Artistic Tag Passions Forum HERE

Font of choice,  I used Mermaid Swash


Drop shadow is  V 0 H -4, 50, 10, or use what you prefer.

Let's get started
*Remember to add your drop shadow as you go along*

Open a new image 800 x 800 or a size you prefer, fill with white, can always resize later.
Select all, add a new layer, paste paper 55 into selection, select none.
Resize your mask larger to 125, paste, delete, merge group.
Paste element 66 on the mask layer.
Resize frame 11 to 45%, paste on the glow.

Paste element 67, move down a little.
Resize element 1 to 40%, paste on the right down some, duplicate, mirror,
move down a little more.
Resize element 103 to 85%, paste at the bottom.
Resize element 107 to 65%, paste at the bottom above the green rocks,
duplicate, move down and below the green rocks.
Resize element 170 to 75%, paste on the left below the the glowing element.
Resize element 21 to 50%, paste below the glowing element toward the left.
Resize element 159 to 60%, paste on the right.

Resize element 112 to 55%, being on the top layer, paste at the lower left, duplicate, mirror.

Resize your tube to 30%, paste above the brown rocks.

Resize element 14 to 95%, paste at the bottom above the tube.
Resize element 49 to 30%, paste on the lower left below the octopus.
Resize element 76 to 40%, paste at the lower left below the sea wordart.

Resize element 44 to 15%, paste below the octopus by the head.
Paste element 192 below the tube on the left, erase the blue frame part, duplicate, mirror.
Resize element 2 to 30%, paste at the lower left below the octopus.

Resize element 38 to 20%, paste at the lower right on the rock.
Resize element 73 to 20%, paste at the bottom right above the octopus, duplicate,
move below the octopus where ever you like.

Resize element 16 to 20%, paste on the right below the glow and grass elements.
Resize element 177 to 40%, paste on one side below the bubbles, duplicate, mirror.


Add any other elements that you would like, make it your own.
Always readjust your mask and elements how you like them before you merge your
tag, resize, sharpen.
 Then add your copyright and name.
That's it
