Add your tube in the centre , still on the tube layer 

Selections/select all float/Modify/Expand by 3.

Add a new layer fill with white & move below the tube. Add a subtle hint of noise & a dropshadow then merge together the tubes.

Duplicate the background layer & rezise 80% Rotate left 90% & move over to the left a little. Duplicate Image/Mirror See my tag for reference.

Merge these 2 layers together,Rename Merged.

Are you still with me? Lol

In Animation shop  Click on layer 3 & paste is after layer 4.

Click on layer 2 & paste after Frame 5.

Click on layer 1 & paste after Frame 6.

I added a little sparkle to mine.

I used Simone Ani 513 & Culled the animation to 8 frames, It looks ok & doesn't jump.
