I forgot towel day

Question

I forgot towel day

Sandbox link

PHP script for both examples (error, formatting the string)

Corrected php script, the input is self explanatory

PHP script with more input comment/uncomment $argv to see different results

As you may know, May 25 is well known as Towel Day, because of the many uses a towel can have.

A simple extract of the book "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" (personally I took this book as an "everyday guide") states:

"A towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value."

The Challenge

Hopefully you will do this with a towel used as a blanket for your legs.

Write a full program or function in any valid programming language that takes two inputs

size        Integer  : #The size
message     string   : #A sentence

How to draw a towel with these values?

First using size:

Draw a towel depending on the size input, ascii-art for our towel

  width = 12*size

  #the line that has the "bar" its always present with different sizes

  Width is defined as:
  from the first | to the second | has to be equal to size*12 including both ||

      <-   width-> 
  [===|          |====]  
      | 12 chars ||   1  height starts here, just after the "bar"
      | SIZE = 1 ||   2
      |          ||   3   height = 5*size
      |          ||   4
      |          ||   5  height ends here just before the first line |=======|
      |==========||   # the lines with the # 
      |==========||   # are always fixed
      """"""""""""|   # it means, every towel
       |          |   # always has this 5 rows
       """"""""""""   # no matter the size

Second, give it the message

You have to give it a message, what is a towel without a beautiful message sewed in golden thread?

Example 1

  input: size=1, message="a simple message can stay with size"

  width = 12*size

  #the line that has the "bar" it's always present with different sizes
  #no words allowed at the bar level


  [===|          |====]  
      | a simple ||   1  height starts here, just after the "bar"
      | message  ||   2
      | can stay ||   3   height = 5*size
      | with size||   4
      |          ||   5  height ends here just before the first line |=======|
      |==========||   # the lines with the # 
      |==========||   # are always fixed
      """"""""""""|   # it means, every towel
       |          |   # always has this 5 rows
       """"""""""""   # no matter the size

Example 2

input size=2 
message="Don't Panic and bring a towel to SE Programming Puzzles and CodeGolf"

The size is 2
That means 24 width and 10 heigth

    <-    24 chars width  ->
[===|                      |====]
    | Don't Panic and bring||   1
    | a towel to SE        ||   2
    | Programming Puzzles  ||   3
    | and CodeGolf         ||   4
    |                      ||   5
    |                      ||   6
    |                      ||   7
    |                      ||   8
    |                      ||   9
    |                      ||   10
    |======================||   #  The lines with the "#"
    |======================||   #  always present and
    """"""""""""""""""""""""|   #  adapted to 
     |                      |   #  the towel width
     """"""""""""""""""""""""   #  

Accepted answer criteria

• This is codegolf so normal rules apply.

Rules

• You are guaranteed that all the input strings will fit the size, so no input like size=1; message="This string is just tooooooooooooooooooooo long to fit the width and height of your towel".

• The string format is up to you, if you want to center the substrings for example.

• Word-breaks are disallowed.

Edits

I am truly sorry about any confussion, because the ansii towels i draw did not matched the parameters, added a PHP script for both examples for you to check the expected outputs.

Also thank you to all the people who voted up and considered my first challenge :D.
