Open and resize your ghost elements I did 3 making each one smaller than the first.
Place these as desired, close off all but these 3 ghosts and merge visible.
Duplicate this layer x 2 so you have 3 ghost layers.

Click on the top layer, selections, float, defloat.

On the middle layer hit random seed once,
Repeat for the bottom one
.
Open your closed layers. Add your other embellishments, tube and name as desired. You can also add your watermark at this point.

Here’s the tricky bit lol.
Once your happy with how it looks close off the top 2 ghost layers.

Go to Edit,copy merged and paste as new animation in AS. Go back to psp close the bottom ghost layer and open the middle one,
repeat the above this time pasting after current frame in AS.
Back in psp close the middle layer and open the top one and repeat edit, paste in AS like the previous step.
In AS go to edit, select all, then go to Animation, frame properties, and change from 10 to 20

Resize by 85% save as whatever name you want to give it and you’re done.
