Selections select none.
You might have to juggle Your layers to make
the tube go under the frame layers.
Do the same for the next frame.

On the frames themselves You can either fill with
a paper or gradient the choice is Yours.
I used penta color dots and played around with it.
On the tubes I duplicated them once and
added a blur of 3 and then put the layers on
overlay.
I then gave My tubes a blinds effect using VanDerLee
interlace which is a pay to use filter
but You can use psp's blinds.

On Both of the star layers You can either colorize or
use manual color correction.
Give these layers along with the tubes and
frames the same drop shadows.
When adding the drop shadows if You have any excess
tube peeking under Your tubes just erase each
of the layers carefully.

Now add any elements You like from the kit giving
them the same drop shadows as above.
When done add Your text any effects You want and
resize it if needed. Don't forget Your copyright
if one is needed.
