Script provided by Dynamic Drive.
Step 1:
Put your mask in your mask folder. Open the Monti Beach Sea and my Beach Ball in psp and minimize for now.
Open a new image 500x500 white background.
Open another new image 500x500 transparent and apply Mura Meisters Cloud with the settings shown below.

Set your foreground to pattern and find the sand pattern we just made. Set the scale to 50.
On our white image add a new Raster layer and flood fill with the sand.
Step 2:
Add a new Raster Layer.
Set your foreground to the Monti Beach Sea, Scale 25 and flood fill this layer.
I added Flaming Pear Flood to this layer to make the water look more wavy.
If you wish to do this do it now using the settings shown below.
(Don't worry about the top part as we will be covering this in a minute).

Select your Lasso tool and set the feather to 20.
Draw a wavy line around the bottom part of the layer to make it look like waves on the beach and hit delete on the keyboard.
See my example below

Deselect.
Step 3:
Add a new Raster layer.
Click on your selection tool and click on Custom selection.

Use the settings shown below.

Go to effects Mura Meisters Cloud with the settings shown below.
Top 2 colours = White
Bottom Colour = #bfe2fc

Deselect.
Step 4:
Copy and paste my Beach Ball as a new layer and resize to 75%.
Copy and paste your tube as a new layer and position towards the bottom of your image.
When you are happy with the positioning use your crop tool to crop off any major excess you have. Make sure you leave a bit of room at the sides and the top for your mask, just not too much.
See my example below

Hide your white background layer and merge all visible.
Unhide the background layer.
Make sure you are on the merged layer and go to Effects / Illumination Effects / Sunburst and use the settings shown below.
Colour = #f8f8d9

Step 5:
Go to Mask Load from Disc and find the edge mask you wish to use.
Source Luminance
Fit to Canvas
Hide all Mask
Click on the mask layer and delete, the click on the group layer and merge all visible.
Set your foreground to #678bc5 and your background to #a6beda
Apply your text making sure Vector is checked.
Image rotate Right = 20. make sure All layers is UNchecked.
Position it where you want and convert to raster layer.
Go to Effects Drop Shadow with the following settings.
V = 2
H = 2
Opacity = 50
Blur = 5
Colour = black
Add the artists copyright and your watermark and save as a .jpg.
