For this tutorial, I’m using a
tube by Amberly Berendson
You can purchase this tube at

Supplies:
Tube of Choice

Plugins:
EyeCandy4000 Gradient Glow

Open a 600x250 new image.
Open up a tube of choice too.
One with multiple colors works great
with this.

Fill with a lighter color from your
new tube.
Now select your rectangle preset
shape tool.

On your materials palette,change
both colors to white. This is a good
base color.

With your preset shape tool,
draw out a long narrow rectangle
along the length of your image.
Convert to raster.

Move the rectangle layer to the
top of the image.
Duplicate 5 more times.
Arrange the layers going down
the image. Make sure you leave a space
between each rectangle. You want to see the
underneath color.

Now hide the bottom layer for the moment.
Merge visible the rectangle layers.

Select your fill tool.
Change the stroke on the materials palette,
to a color from your tube. Fill the top rectangle
with the color.
Repeat this with the next rectangle and with a
different color from the tube.
I did the colors to reflect the socks the tube has on.

Now we're going to add noise to the layer.
Adjust - add noise
35 uniform
Monochrome checked

Once all the rectangles are filled,
apply EyeCandy 4000 Gradient Glow
Black halo 3.00
Then apply the Glow Fat 3.00

Unhide the bottom layer.
Paste your main tube as a new layer as top layer.
Position to the side of the tag.
Mirror.

On your layers palette, change
the blend mode to hard light.
Paste your tube again & position
as originally before the mirror step.

Add a drop shadow to both the rectangles
and the 2nd tube layer.
2,2,50,5 Black

Add a new raster layer on the top layer.
Fill with white or color of choice.
Click this layer with your magic wand.
Selections contrast by 3.
Press delete on your keyboard.
Select none.

Add artist copyright & name.
Save as wanted.
Thanks for trying my tutorial.

Am feeling a lot of darkness tonight & angry towards myself..lashing out at myself
in ways I shouldn't - esp when angry. I seem to have no control.
Usually its a minor battle within myself..but its a full war tonight. It seems the voice or voices in my head are a lot worse..
I did the below creation tonight..trying to put words to what I am feeling..it doesn't even come close to the emotions.
The 1st one is an older one I also did. I'm beginning to wonder if I am crazy...and how far this will go. The 2nd photo is from tonight
