            A beautiful tube in my favorite color, well one of them anyway,

            Purple. I found it easy to work with this tube as she is not only

            Beautiful but I think she is elegant as well.

            You can purchase these tubes and thousands of others at CDO

• I chose the 2nd option and used elements to build it up until I was content
• I then added my Tube off to the right and added some sparkles
• Move the circle frame to the top and click inside with your magic wand
• Selections invert
• Go layer by layer and remove excess from the layers so everything is within our circle frame
• Once happy merge visible
• Add your copyrights and name
• Now you have completed a timeline set
