This tag was put together using my own imagination. Any resemblance to any other tag or tutorial is purely coincidental.

Supplies Needed:
Tube of choice
I am using Elias Chatzoudis

I am using the sensational scrapkit called Lovey Dovey
It is created by April and you can purchase it here
Thank you for a wonderful kit April.

Font of choice

Mask of choice

Plugins (Optional)
Gradient glow
Dsb Flux-Bright Noise

I am using PSP9
Some working knowledge of psp is needed to complete this tutorial.

Now that you have all your supplies, let’s begin:
Open blank canvas 600x600
Background white
We can crop later if needed!

Open tube and minimize for now.
Grab your eclipse tool
Background null
Foreground #f037d1
Create on vector checked- line width 6
Draw a circle as big or small as you like
Use mine for reference.
Make sure your tool is set on circle not oval.
Convert circle to raster layer

Take your magic wand and click inside the circle
Selections-modify-expand by 3
Paste paper 2 as new layer
Selections-invert-hit delete on your keyboard
Move paper layer below the frame layer in your layer palette.
Select none.

Paste tube as a new layer
Make sure tube is on top layer in layer palette
Add drop shadow of choice to tube

Add any other elements to tag from kit that you would like.
You can see my tag for reference.

Crop to size preferred
Add copyrights and licenses if applicable.
If you do not wish to animated you may merge your layers
And save as a PNG for best quality.
Animation:
Duplicate your frame layer which should be raster 2-
Duplicate twice- you should have 3 layers
Close of the 2 duplicated layers and make sure your raster 2 is highlighted
Open your dsb flux-bright noise plugin and click on mix once

Click ok
Close off that layer and open the next one.
Highlight the duplicated layer and repeat the bright noise only this time click on mix twice.
Click ok.

Now close that layer back off and move to the 3rd layer- follow same as but click on mix 3 times.

Once you have all 3 of your layers done follow here very carefully

Open your animation shop
Go back to psp and close off the 2 duplicated layers and highlight raster 2
Go to edit and COPY MERGED
Paste into animation shop as new animation
Go back to psp and hide that layer and unhide the next one-copy merged and go back to Animation shop and paste AFTER CURRENT FRAME
Go back to psp and hide that layer and unhide the last duplicated layer
copy merged and go back to Animation shop and paste AFTER CURRENT FRAME
Click on animation tab to see animation.
Save and you’re done.
