On your layer pallette, Merge the mask group.
3.) Repeat the steps on 1. and 2. with a different paper from the kit.

Leave the other mask layer as it.
Hide the white background and merge the mask layers visible. Drop shadow optional.

Add a drop shadow. I used V&H=1.
Opacity=50. Blur=3.

With the magic wand tool, Click inside the frame.
Go to Selections, Modify, Expand by 6. Selections invert, Hit delete.
Move the paper layer below the frame layer.

Resize the beaded ribbon by 80%. With the magic wand tool, Click inside the frame.
Copy and paste the beaded ribbon and position where you want it.
Go to Selections, Invert and hit delete. Make sure the ribbon is above the paper layer.
Add a drop shadow of your choice to the beaded ribbon.
