Following are the steps I took to make this tag
it is my own tag and I followed no one's direction
any resemblance to someone else's is by purest chance

Supplies needed
PSP

open a 488 x 356, 72 dpi, transparent background
new layer
open a tube of your choice
I am using the Fantastic Art of
Charles Bristow
He is a PTU Artist
Please do not use with out a License
Dropper tool choose 2 colours from your tube
for your materials
1 foreground and 1 background
Copy your tube and close it
 Ctrl+L 3 times to your new image close the top 2 copies
on the original layer apply PSP Filter adjust - blur - Gaussian 67
Effect - MuRa's Meister filter - Copies - wallpaper rotate
play with these settings until you like the preview
open your top image and position it toward the top and off to one side of your tag
open next layer and Image, mirror, reduce opacity to 50
select raster 1 select all keep selected
return to wallpaper layer
select modify contract 20
using your move tool move top image to inside selection
move 2nd layer to outer edge
Selection, invert
Adjust, brightness, Brightness settings  -35, contrast +15
do this on wallpaper and middle image layer only

Effect, Texture, blinds = size 6 opacity 50 Vertical select one of your colours
apply to both the wall paper and middle layer
Effect, Texture, blinds = size 6 opacity 50 Horizontal use same colour as previously
apply to both the wall paper and middle layer
highlight top tube layer do not deselect
create a new layer (Frame)
Selection, invert, fill with the second colour you did not use for the blinds effect
selection modify contract 5 delete deselect
apply copyright and your license # to top layer
save one copy as a psp image to reuse Again and again
