Using the preset shapes again with the same settings as before I made a muzzle above the head layer.

Converted that to a raster layer, used retouch to add some shading and the same eyecandy jiggle.

Switching back to freehand draw with the same settings as before I changed my fill color to #B64040 and started making a bow under the head layer.

Converted that to a raster layer and used retouch for shading. I changed the size of both Lighten & Darken RGB to 10.

Above this layer, I used freehand draw to make more of the bow.

Converted to a raster layer and used retouch tool for more shading. Then used a drop shadow with these settings.

Vertical = 1
Horizontal = 1
Opacity = 40
Blur = 5
Color = Black

Using freehand draw again, I made the rest of the bow above this layer.

Converted that to a raster layer, used retouch to add more shading, and used the same drop shadow.

Use freehand draw or preset shapes and give this bear a face above all these layers.

Using preset shapes again with the heart shape and changing my fill color to #B64040 I made the first balloon.

Convert that to a raster layer and use a cutout with the setting below.

Vertical=-8 Horizontal=-6 Opacity=51 Blur=25 Shadow Color=Black Fill Color=Same as Your Balloon

And then Lighten RGB with these settings...

Shape=Round Size=25 Hardness=0 Opacity=30 Step=1 Density=100 Lighten RGB

To add two small highlights on the balloon.

Using the same settings for preset shapes and changing my fill to #F6F8FA I made another balloon above that layer.

Converted that to a raster layer, used the same cutout and lighten rgb to add the same highlights.

And then another balloon above that using a fill color of #406CB6...

Convert to a raster layer, use the same cutout and add the same highlight.

Then using freehand draw again with a fill of #406CB6 I made one ribbon on the balloon.

Converted to a raster layer and used Lighten RGB with the same settings as above to add some highlights.

And repeated this for the other two ribbons...

I then used freehand draw to make 3 little bows on the balloons above that layer.

I used an inner bevel with these settings on those 3 little bows.

Width=3 Smoothness=35 Depth=3 Ambience=0 Shininess=10 Color=White Angle=215 Intensity=50 Elevation=30

And you are finished!
