Any resemblance to another
tutorial is purely coincidental.
I am using a tube by Zindy S.D. Nielsen.
The tube is available at her
store.

Supplies:
Tube of choice
WSLMask 144 by weescottlass creations
Blog
Plugin: EyeCandy4000 Gradient Glow

Open a 600x600 new image.
Open up your tube of choice.

Resize your tube 80%
Copy & paste your tube as a
new layer.

Choose your font tool.
You want a big chunky font.
In your materials palette,
make your foreground a dark color.
Make your fill color a brighter color.
I am using black & pink.

Add a drop shadow to the tube.
2,2,50,5 Black

Type out a single word which
matches with your tube.
I did size 26 & stroke width 1.0
Enlarge as needed.
Convert to raster.
Move to just below your tube
on the tag.

We're going to apply two gradient
glows to the word.
For the first one:
EyeCandy4000 Gradient Glow
Black Halo Setting.
Glow width 3.00

For the second one:
Fat Setting
Glow Width 3.00
Add a drop shadow to the word.
2,2,50,5 Black

Now add a new raster layer on
the bottom layer of the tag.
Fill with your dark color.
Apply the mask WSLMask 144.
Merge group & mirror.

Now add another raster layer
above the mask layer.
Fill this one with the brighter color.
Apply the same mask as before.
Merge group.

Merge the two mask layers together.
Duplicate once.
On the bottom mask layer.
Rotate Free Rotate Left 90.

Merge your layers visible.
Crop your tag was wanted.
Add artist information & name.
Save as png.
