Any resemblance to another
tutorial is purely coincidental.
I am using a tube by
Enamorte that was exclusive
to CDO Diamond Club.

Scrapkit: Inspired by Enamorte AOTM 2015
Open up your template & tube.
Ctrl D with the template to duplicate it.
You can now hide the original template.
On the template, delete the info
& the white background layers.
Now I like to work with a larger
area so I used Canvas Size & increased
my work space with the template to 700x700.
Select a paper of choice.Paste as a new a layer.
Position underneath the noisy template layer.
On the noisy layer, select all - float - defloat
& invert. Click back to the paper layer & press delete
on your keyboard. Select none.
On the noisy layer, change the blend mode to Overlay.
Using the same paper, paste again as a new layer. Position as
wanted over the Stripes layer. On the Stripes layer, select all - float - defloat
& invert. Click back to the paper layer & press delete
on your keyboard. Select none. Merge the two Stripes layers together.
Next, select the Outer Ellipse/Frame layer of the template.
Paste a different paper of choie as a new layer. With the Ellipse
layer, On the noisy layer, select all - float - defloat
& invert. Click back to the paper layer & press delete
on your keyboard. Select none. Merge the two ellipse layers together.
Paste your tube as a new layer under the Ellipse/Frame layer.
Resize if needed depending on the tube you are using.
Click inside the Ellipse layer using your Magic Wand tool.
While selected, go to Selections - Modify -Expand by 3.
Selections - Invert & click on the tube layer. Press delete & select none.
Right click on the tube layer & duplicate the tube once.
On the top layer, go to Adjust - Hue/Saturation. Set both values to 0
& click Ok. Change your blend mode to Overlay or one that fits your tag better.
On the original tube layer, lower the opacity on this layer to 65.
Add a drop shadow of choice to the layers we have worked with so far.
Now on to the letters of the template. This part will be a tad repetivite
as its best to do each letter one at a time. I tried merging them together
& found it didn't work as well.
Okay select a paper of choice. Select the letter D layer. Select all - Float &
Defloat. Selections - Invert. Paste your paper as a new layer. Press delete.
Select none. I changed the Blend Mode of the paper to Overlay on my tag.
Merge the paper letter layer with the original letter layer.If you want, you can
alternate between two papers for every other letter also.
Repeat the above steps for each letter of the wording.
Select a flower or element of choice from the scrap you are using.
I resized the one I used by 40%. Paste as a new layer & position to the bottom side of your word. Arrange this layer to the bottom layer of your tag.Duplicate the flower once & mirror.
Add a new raster layer on the bottom of your tag. Fill with a color from your tube.
Apply the mask JustFi_Mask007 or one of choice. Merge group.Duplicate the mask layer once & merge the two mask layers together.
Crop your tag to desired size. Add artist copyright information & name.
Save as png. Thanks for trying my tutorial.
