Lets begin!

1. Open up the supplies in PSP and colourise to match the tube you are using.
Open a new image 550×550 and floodfill with white. Layers – New Raster Layer. Floodfill with a colour from your tube.
Apply Chelle’s mask and merge group.

2. Copy and paste my supplies as new layers onto your canvas.
Using your preset circle shape, Line width 2, background Null, foreground a colour from your tube, draw out a circle that fits nicely around my black circle.
Do the same with the rectangle shape except draw around the coloured rectangle.
Move these underneath the black circle layer I provided.

3. Using your rectangle selection tool, select the 2 squares I provided.
Copy and paste a tube of choice as a new layer.
Do this for both squares.
Selections – Invert, hit the delete key on your keyboard.
Selections – Select None.
Give the tubes a drop shadow and reduce the opacity to around 50 or so.

4. Add your main tube to the canvas and give it a drop shadow of choice.
I used V & H [2] Opacity [60] Blur [6] Colour [Black]

5. Add your name in a font of choice.
Add the artist copyrights and your taggers mark and you’re done!
