This tutorial was written by me using
PSP7 .
The tutorial is meant as a guide only.
The tutorial is my design and any
similarity to any other tutorial is Purely coincidental.
Supplies Needed
2 Tubes of your choice (Do not mix
artists)
I used the awesome art of Keith
Garvey. You must have a license to use his tubes which you can purchase
at My Psp
Tubes
Background shape by me
Here
Font of your choice.
Open supplies in PSP
Open a new canvas 600x600
Flood fill white
Rename layer background
Paste the shape I supplied as new layer
Resize by 140%
Rename layer yinyang
Select all
Float
Defloat
Selections>Modify>Contract by 7
Selections>Promote to layer
Rename yinyang2
Select none
Using the magic wand click inside the black part of the layer you
promoted
Selections>Modify>Expand by 1
Copy your naughty tube as new layer
Resize by 200%
Place so the part you want showing is inside marching ants
Selections>Invert
Press delete on your keyboard
Reduce the opacity to about 30%
Change the layer properties to luminance
Select none
Repeat this on the white side of the yinyang2 layer with the nice tube
But instead of using luminance colourize the tube with hue and
saturation both 0
Hide all layers but the tubes and merge visible
Rename this layer close up
Unhide hidden layers
You should now have something a little like this

Go to resize and resize by 85% all layers checked
Then go to Image>Canvas size
New canvas wants to be 600x600
Make the background layer the active layer
Flood fill white
Make the original yin-yang layer the active layer
Preset shape tool
Line width 2
Foreground colour a bright colour which is easy to see (we will be
deleting this after so any bright colour will do)
Background colour null
Draw out a circle with the shift key pressed down which is slightly
larger than the yin-yang
Objects>align>centre in canvas
Image>flip
Select your text tool and hover over the line until you see an A with a
curved line underneath
Click down with your mouse
Type out the text you want to show on the dark side of the tag in black
I used some words which relate the naughty side of a woman
Click ok
Move the vector circle so the words are showing at the dark side of the
tag
Objects>Align Centre in canvas
Go into the layer palette
Click on the + sign next to where it says layer 4
Where it says ellipse click on the glasses to hide the visibility
Now go to layers>convert to raster layer
Add the following drop shadow
V & H 0
Opacity 60
Blur 5
Now repeat this step for the left hand side but with nice words relating
to an angelic side of a woman and this time with the words in white
On the drop shadow for the white text change the opacity to 100
Hide all layers but the text layers
Merge visible on the text layers
Rename layer text
Unhide hidden layers
Make the close ups layer the active layer
Using the same font as you used around the tag type out your Name in
white
Place it across the middle of your tag
Now use the lasso tool to draw around the part of the text that is in
the white side of your shape. You don’t have to be neat around the text
but try to keep as close to the where the white and black meet as you
can
Like this

Then with lasso tool selected click on the text you have drawn round and
it will make the marching ants move to around it
Flood fill this part of the text black
Next paste your tubes as new layer
The nice tube on the white side the naughty tube on the black side
Crop or resize as desired

Save your tag as a jpg and enjoy
