What you'll need:


You'll need a tube of choice I am using a gorgeous tube by Anna Marine which you can purchase at Creative Design Outlet HERE.
Be sure to check out all the other great artists there!


An awesome kit called Darker Love by Killer Kitty Kreations which you can download HERE.
Be sure to check out ALL her other awesome kits!


Fonts of choice - I am using a pixel font for the copyright and Pirmokas for the name.


Mask of choice - mine is from Insatiable Dreams HERE.
I used mask number 434 which is mask 11 set on the page :)


Ready?
Let's get started!


Open up a 700X700 canvas, we can always re-size/crop later.


I like BIG tags LOL.

Open up the heart frame from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer onto your canvas. I copied and pasted my tube now since my tube isn't a full tube so it would depend on your tube that you use. Then I duplicated it change the blend mode to overlay and lower the opacity a little bit.

Open up paper 6 from the kit copy and paste it as a new layer onto you canvas but move it BELOW  the heart frame and add your mask and merge group. Arrange this layer to your liking then duplicate and mirror it. I arranged mine so that they were both on each side of the frame.

I used the broken glass element from the kit below my tube layers re-size it so it fits nicely on your tag. I did the same with the clock element and arranged it to it was at the top left of the frame.

Take the LOVE word-art copy and paste it as a new layer near the bottom part of your frame and tube re-size it so it fits nicely.

I also used Doodle 2 from the kit and moved it below the frame layer but above the masked paper layers. Re-size it a little if you need too.

Add your name in your font and color of choice then go to selections-select all-float-defloat-modify and expand by 2 add a new layer flood fill it with white or a color of choice then add some noise by going to adjust-add/remove noise-add noise uniform checked, 50% noise and monochrome checked. DO NOT deslect yet go to modify and expand by 2 again add a new layer and flood fill with the color you used for your name move it below all the name layers and add a drop shadow.


Here are the settings I used


H 2
V 2
Opacity 60
Blur 4.00
Color Black


Finally add your copyright and license number if applicable save as png or jpeg whichever you prefer and we're done!
