Move element 96 to the top.

Merge group.

Duplicate. Mirror.

Merge down.

Now add a drop shadow to all your elements and tube (except for the paper) to your liking.

Adding a drop shadow will make your tag pop instead of giving it that flat look.

I used these settings: 3, 2, 60, 5.

Merge visible.

Add your copyright information and your license number to your tag.

I use 'Arial' font size 8 to do mine in the color black. I also used the plugin of Eye Candy Gradient Glow with a width of 7 to go around my copyright and license information in the color choice of a5a393.

Merge visible layers together. Give your creation a name and save as a blank copy.

Now, add a name to your tag in your font of choice.

I used font 'Across the Road' in size 36. Color choice was black.

Merge down and re-save.
