Open Frame 2 and resize to 350 x 393
Image / Canvas Resize to 500 x 600
Add new raster layer and flood fill with white
Move to bottom
Open Paper 6 and paste as new layer

~ Step 2 ~

Copy your tube into the frame and duplicate it
Move one copy below frame and one copy above
On the copy above the frame layer make a selection around the top half of the tube then hit delete
It should now look as though yout tube is under the top of the frame with the bottom melting out
**If you are not using the same or similar tube, just go with placing your tube UNDER the frame layer and erasing the excess**

Zoom in and carefully erase parts of the stem so it looks like it is tucked behind the part of your tube that overhangs
Add a slight drop shadow
