Open paper 8 and duplicate. Apply Mask and merge group. I used mask 0136 by me.
Copy and paste your tube as a new layer. I remove some of the bottom off my tube with my selection tool set to rectangle and feather of 30.
Move tube to the right side of tag.
If you have a large close up image of your tube, copy and paste it as a new layer. Mirror and position over your mask.
Click on your bottom mask layer.
Go to Selections, select all. Go to Selections, float. Go to Selections, invert. Hit delete on your keyboard. Go to Selections, select none.

Grab your preset shapes tool, set to Ellipse. Background color black, foreground color null.
Make a circle that is smaller then your mask. Convert to raster layer and send to bottom, below your mask layer. You should have something like this:

Copy and paste element 14 as a new layer. In layers palette this should be below your tube close up.
Click on your your tube close up now to activate that layer.

My square is 244 x 266. You can always open a new image with those dimensions and flood fill with a bright color.
Copy and paste it on your tag and place at bottom, in between element 44 and your tube. Our animation will be going there, so the color will remind us to not place any elements over this area. Double click on this layer in your palette. Properties box will pop up. Place a check mark beside "Highlight in layers palette" and choose a color of choice.

Click OK to close. You should have something like this:

tag) and place the other one middle top of your box. Drop shadow each.
