This tutorial was written March 14, 2013. I used Corel X3, but it should work in other versions as well.

The supplies you need:

A tube of choice. I used a beautiful tube from Jessica Brown. She was selling at Indie-Zine at the time this tutorial was written.

Materials you need:
Toadies – Living Sine (linear)
Pixelate – Sector Mosaic
Birgits Chaos – Stripes
Eye Candy 6 – Perspective Shadow (optional) and Extrude (optional)
Font of choice. I used Super Delicious BNT.

Open a new canvas 600x250 and floodfill with a color. It doesn’t matter what color you choose.
Add Toadies – Living Sine at default settings:

Add Pixelate – Sector Mosaic with these settings:

Add a new layer and floodfill with a color. Add Birgits Chaos – Stripes with these these settings:

(There are also other types of stripe filters under Birgits Chaos)

Image rotate – 40 degrees to the left and move to the top left corner. (See end result for position). Change the layer option to Overlay.
Add your tube and place it on the left side of the tag and under the striped layer. Change the layer option to Overlay or another suitable option.
Add a close up of the tube on the right side of the tag. Add a suitable drop shadow to both the layer tubes. I used Eye Candy 6 – Perspective Shadow with the blurry setting.
Add a new layer and floodfill with black or a dark color from your tube. Select all, contract by 6 and hit Delete.
Invert, contract by 1 and floodfill the selection with a light color from your tube.
With the selection still active, go to Adjust – Noise – Add noise and put in these options:

Select none and add a drop shadow: 0,0,100,10, Black

Add your name with a suitable font.

To get the rainbow effect on the name, I duplicated the name and used Extrude on the bottom name layer. It doesn’t matter what colors you choose in the settings. Then I made a new layer that I floodfilled and used the Living Sine setting on it. I changed the size on this rainbow layer to be a little bit bigger than the name. After that, I went back to the name layer that has Extrude, selected all, float, defloat, invert. Go back to the small rainbow layer and hit delete. Delete the original name layer that has Extrude on it and put a dropshadow on the name layer with rainbow extrude on it. Merge the top name layer down to the layer with the name and rainbow Extrude.

Add proper copyright and you’re done!

Duplicate your tag and crop it to 150x150, choosing a section of your tag. Do not use the re-size option.
Delete the tube layers, the frame layer and the font layers.
Add a new layer and floodfill with black or a dark color from your tube. Select all, contract by 6 and hit Delete.
Invert, contract by 1 and floodfill the selection with a light color from your tube.
With the selection still active, go to Adjust – Noise – Add noise with the same settings as before.

Add your initial and save it.
