duplicate and hide this layer for now
d/s original clover layer 4,6,50,8,black

c/p tube, resize to fit your tag
I moved mine down under the hill layer
and positioned to the right slightly

squash it down a bit
then hold down ctrl and hover over the top left node
and drag inwards a bit

position so it looks like its coming
from the harp, move this layer down
to just above the white background layer

Now remember that duplicated clover we hid
unhide it 
resize by 80
image mirror and bring it up to just under
your harp layer, position so its poking out
from behind the harp
d/s 

make your background layer active
c/p paper 9
apply mask

Merge all mask layers together and
