Any resemblance to another

tutorial is purely coincidental.

I am using the art of Lorenzo Sperlonga

with his tube 67-3.

Plugins:

Mura's Meister's Copies

Graphics Plus: Horizontal Mirror

Toadies Motion Trail

Mask: BST_Mask9

As far as I know, this mask isn't

available anymore.

Open up your tube of choice & a 

700x700 new image.

C&P your tube onto your new image.

Duplicate the tube once & hide the copy

layer for now.

Rename your original tube as Shape Tube.

This will help keep layers straight as we work.

Now choose your rectangle shape tool.

Or you can use a circle one too. But for mine, I am

using a square shape which is found under the Rectangle shape.

Set width 6.00.

On your Materials Palette, hide the foreground/Stroke color for now.

Select a color for the Background color. I chose white but it doesn't matter

too much.

On your Shape tube layer, draw out a shape to desired size.

Convert to raster & position as wanted on your tube.

Duplicate the shape two more times.

Position the shapes in a row. I did mine going down the tube I chose.

Merge the three shape layers together.

Now, move this layer underneath your Shape tube layer.

Hide for a moment, the tube layer.

Select your magic wand tool & click the top shape layer..

then holding shift down, select the other two layers as well.

Go to selections - Invert. Unhide the Shape Tube now & select 

that layer in your layer palette. Hit delete on your keyboard.

Select none. Now merge the two layers together.

Rename the layer 3 Squares (or circles if using them)

Duplicate the layer once. Move the top layer towards the left so it partially overlaps the layer below.

the 3 Squares layer

Rename the duplicated layer as top 3.

Change the blend mode on it to Hard Light.

Select your Pen tool.

Click the layer above your bottom layer.

On your Materials layer, hide your Background layer for now.

Unhide your Foreground & select black for this color.

Set the Pen width to 5.00.

Draw out two vertical lines underneath your 3 squares layer.

Move one of the lines slight higher than the other one.

Merge the two lines together & rename the layer 2 lines.

Now select 3 Squares layer again. Apply the plugin Graphics Plus:

Horizontal Mirror with default settings.

Apply the plugin Toadies Motion Trail with default settings.

Remember your earlier tube copy that you hid at the beginning?

Now unhide it & position along the left side of your tag. You want her also

 overlapping your other tag layers. Add a drop shadow of choice to her.

Add a new raster layer above the bottom layer. Fill with a color of choice

from your tube. I chose yellow from the tube I am using.

Layers- Load Mask-Load Mask from disk.

I used BST_Mask9. Right click the mask layer & merge group.

Now, C&P your tube again above the mask layer as a new layer.

Apply the plugin Mura's Mesiter Copies: Wallpaper Rotate default.

You may need to apply this plugin twice depending on your tube.

Re-select your mask layer again.

Selections - Select all -Float -Defloat - Invert.

Select the tube you just wallpapered & press delete.

This should remove all of that layer outside of the mask area.

Change the blend mode to Screen & lower the opacity to 65.

Merge the two layers together & resize 97%.

Now, select the 3 Squares layer. Choose your font tool.

Type out a word of choice. I used Vixen & typed it out two different times.

I positioned it above & below the center shape of the 3 shapes layer.

Merge the two words together & add a drop shadow of choice.

Crop your tag image to desired size.

Add artist copyright info & a name to your tag.

Save as png. Thanks for trying my tutorial.
