You will need my tube here-it is one I made up from tubes I got from Outlaw where I am a member

Duplicate the tube and save the copy until later

Work on the tube and hide the layer with the text--you don't need to add any copyright unless you want to.

Layer duplicate-work on the non copied layer.

Effects-reflection effects-pattern-setting-default

Reduce the opacity of this layer to 50

Duplicate the copied layer-then work on the layer below-that is the first copy of the tube

Effects-distortion effects-polar co-ordinates on default setting

Layers -merge-merge all and flatten

Image-resize-smart size-maintain original print size-85%

Adjust-sharpness-unsharp mask-radius 1-strength-50 clipping 5

Open a new transparent canvas 500x 500 and copy and paste your tag onto that.

Add a default drop shadow

Click on the bottom layer and flood fill with a colour of your choice

Effects-texture-texture-add a fine texture of your choice

Image-add border-size 5 colour white

Image add border- size 10-colour black

Resize as before using same settings and sharpening as before-do the 85% twice as this saves you loosing detail on the tag.

In your foreground box of the material palette have white and in the background have black.

Add a new layer

Preset shape on circle- add a small circle in the top left hand corner-line width 3

Duplicate this layer 3 times then arrange down the left border of the tag.

Add a new layer for any text that you like.

Layers merge visible.

That's the tutorial finished-I hope that you enjoyed doing it.
