Open the template, shift +D to duplicate and close the original.

Resize by 85% all layers checked, Then canvas size to 650 by 650.

Activate the bottom layer, hit delete on your keyboard to delete the white layer, 

click the eye to be able to see the layer. 

Select all and paste a paper of choice into selection. I used the background from the tube.

Merge down layers 1,2 and 3.

Select all, float and de-float.

selections invert, paste a paper of choice as new layer, hit delete on your keyboard.

Select none.

Repeat with layers 4, 5,6 and 7. using papers of choice.

Add a drop shadow of choice to each template layer.

Delete the info and the text layers, of the template.

Activate the bottom layer, now grab your text tool and find your dingbat.

Type a capital H. Stroke set to black, line width 3. Foreground null. Size 350.Create as vector. 

Now go objects, align center in canvas. Convert to raster. Grab your magic wand and click inside the frame you just made. 

Selections expand by 2. Make the bottom layer active and right click your mouse, 

promote selection to layer. drag promoted selection to top just below frame layer. deselect.

Apply an inner bevel or glass effect, activate frame layer and add a drop shadow. 

now merge the 2 layers.

Drag merged layer to just above the bottom layer. grab your magic wand and click outside the frame. 

activate the bottom layer and hit delete on your keyboard.

Add element # 9 as a new layer, place in center bottom of canvas.

Paste tube as a new layer and resize by 70% three times.

Paste #80 as  new layer and send to bottom.

Paste element #3 as new layer and send to top. position as desired.

Sharpen more and add a shadow of choice.
