3.Grab your preset shapes tool set to elipse.Stroke width set at 3.Draw a large circle in the mddle of the image.Your foreground color should be set to a color from your tube back ground set to null.

4.Before converting to raster, go to objects, align, center in canvas.Then convert to raster,apply a bevel of choice.

5.Grab your magic wand, click inside your new circle,modify your selection by expanding x 2.Now invert the selection,make your paper layer active, and hit delete on your keyboard.This will get rid of the paper thats outside of your circle.Rotate the circle to the right x 25 degrees.Go to adjust brightness and contrast, and apply the default settings.

6.Now duplicate your circle layer and on the original circle layer, apply a gausian blur, set at 25.

7. Make your top layer the active layer,select your preset shapes tool again.Same settings as before, only change the line style to Dots.Make another circle just slightly larger than the first one you made.Convert it to a raster layer. and apply the same bevel you used before.

8.Paste your tube as a new layer, resize it as desired.Add a drop shadow of choice.Dont forget to add your copywright.

9.Open element 04 and paste it as a new layer.Drag it below your paper layers.And move it to the corner of your tag Duplicate it and flip and mirror it.So its in the oposite corner.

10.Paste the ribbon 62 as a new layer,resize it as needed.Repeat step 5 to get rid of the ribbon outside of the circle.Move the circles to the top.Use your deform tool to rotate the ribbon.Refer to my tag as a reference.
