For this tutorial you will need:~

Ok, Let's get started!

Open Mask, Tube and My Background image in psp, and minimise the mask.

Add a new raster layer to the My Background image and floodfill with Black

Layers>NewMask Layer>From Image:

 

For psp7, Masks>New>From Image:

 

Find kelsmask161.jpg in the drop down list and make sure 'invert mask data' is unchecked:

 

Layers>Merge>Merge Group (don't need to do this for psp7) and lower the opacity to 50.

Copy and paste your tube as a new layer and Image>Resize by 90% bicubic and make sure that 'resize all layers' is unchecked.
Position your tube over to the right like mine and apply a drop shadow with these settings:~

Apply the drop shadow again but change the Vertical and Horizontal from -1 to 1.
Apply Effects>Plugins>Lokas Software, 3D Shadow, Click the presets button and choose 'Rear Shadow' and change the transparency to 60.

Layers>Merge Visable, apply Effects>PLugins>Alien Skin Xenofex 2, Burnt Edges, with these settings :~

Image>Add Border (Click yes to the box that pops up) 3 pixels, Black.

Add a new raster layer and add your favourite brushes.

I resized mine at this point by 90%, resize all layers checked.

Add another new raster layer and add the artists copyright and your watermark etc.

Add a another new raster layer for your name, I used the font Sleepy Hollow, size 100, Black as my Foreground and #6E0F0D as my background. I applied an inner bevel with the settings below and Lokas 3D Flat Faint Shadow:~

 

When you're happy with your name text, Layers>Merge Visible and save as jpg and we're done! :o)
