2. Copy circular frame, I used CBJ_BD_PrettyRoundFrame, image, resize 50% (I use weighted average)

3. Duplicate twice, hide layers, move hidden layers to bottom

4. Copy paper of choice, I used CBJ_BD_Paper8

Use magic wand, select inside frame.

Select all, select float, select modify expand 4,

layer, new raster layer, paste into selection, select none.

Change color to suit tag, per CBJ's TOU this is allowed.
