Let's begin!

Open a 600x600 new image canvas – transparent background.

Select your rectangle tool.

Change your settings for the width to be 10.00, and check the anti-alias.

On your materials tab, select your color choose for your foreground color. Set your background color to nil. For my foreground color, I chose a color from my tube choice.

Draw your rectangle to your liking.

Convert layer to a raster layer.

Go to effects, 3D effects, inner bevel. Use the default settings. Select ok.

Go to effects, plugins, eye candy, glass. Use the default settings. Select ok.

Open your tube again.

(You may need to re-size your tube, I didn't re-size mine)

Copy and paste as a new layer to canvas.

Position as you like.

Where I placed my tube, I had to erase some of the tube to get the look I wanted. You may need to do the same. To do so, you would use your eraser tool.

Open the bushes element and re-size to 462x254.

Copy element. Using your selection tool, select inside the rectangle that we just made.

Go to selections, modify, expand by 5.

Paste element as a new layer onto canvas.

Position as you like.

Go back to the opened element. Mirror it. Copy it again.

Paste as a new layer onto canvas.

Position as you like.

Merge those the two bushes layers together.

Move layer to below the frame (rectangle).

Position as you like.

Go to selections, invert.

Hit delete on your keyboard.

Go to selections, select none.

Move layer to below the bushes layer.

Open the owl element and re-size to 420x305.

Copy and paste as a new layer onto canvas.

Apply mask of choice.

I am using MC_Mask11 by Melissaz Creationz.

Merge group.

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

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 5 to go around my copyright and license information in the color choice of afafba.

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 'One Starry Night' in size 72. Color choice was 1a1a29.

Merge down and re-save.
