~Supplies Needed~
Tubes of choice~
I use the fantastic art work of Ted Hammond

Font~Metallica
Scrap Kit of choice or the one
I purchased by Yarrow called Rock Devil at Digital Chaos .
Yvettes Template #15
Which you can find and download at her blog Essence Of Creativity
**************************
Ok lets get started!
Open Yvettes Template in PSP.
Where going to actually use her canvas the template is on.
Delete the © layer.
Now on your circle layer go to Selections~Select All,Float,Defloat
And copy and paste as a new layer a paper of choice from the kit.
Once happy with placement go to Selections,Invert,Hit Delete.
***
Do the same as above with your dotted line layer,rectangle layer,frame layer, and star 1,2,3,and 4.
Of course using different papers from the kit.
Now to add your tube or tubes...
Click on the rectangle layer in your layers palette and go to Selections,Select All,Float,Defloat.
Now copy and paste your tube of choice as a new layer.
You may resize if needed.Once happy with placement and size go to Selections,Invert,Hit Delete.
Now your going to copy and paste the same tube as a new layer.
Resize with the same settings if you did so before and taking your eraser tool errase any over lapping the frame
Except for the top of the tube you want it looking like its coming out of the frame.
***
Now if youd like to add another tube like I did above after your done hitting
Delete on your keyboard just got back to Selections, and Invert and copy and paste your second tube of choice.
You may want to resize a bit to make it look as though shes further in the background of the frame.
You can see my tag above for reference if needed.
Now when happy with palacement and size go to Selection,Invert,Delete,Select None.
***
Now if you decide not to add another tube thats fine too.
Now add any elements of choice to your tag if you'd like to
Add the elements I used you can see my tag above for placement.
Give a slight drop shadow of 2,2,50,5.00 to your elements and tube/tubes if you'd like.
Once finished with your tag hide your whit background and Merge Visible.
Now duplicate just your Merged tag and on the original layer or bottom tag layer go to
Adjust~Blur~Gaussian Blur~6.50 and click ok.
***
You can now unhide your white layer and merge all visible once again.
Now add copyright and license and dont forget to give yourself credit for making the tag.
Add your name and give a slight drop shadow as well.I used the same settings as above.
Rename Tag and save as a png.
Thats it your done.
Thank you so much for trying my tutorial.
~Happy PSPin~
