This tutorial was written by Mizteeque on 20th August 2014 

written using psp 9 but any version should work 

any resemblance to other works is purely coincidental 

 Supplies Needed:

repeat but this time mirror your tube 

merge the two tube layers down 

using your freehand selection tool 

feather 50 

draw across the bottom of the tube layers 

and down around the words on the mask layer

like flowers, bows etc 

personally I like it the way it is 

 Delete the white background layer 

crop away the excess 

Add your name and copyright info
