This tutorial was written by me for those that have a working knowledge of Paint Shop Pro.
 Any similarity to other tutorials is not intentional.

Supplies:

Tubes of Choice. I am using Ismael Rac. If you want to use the same tubes you must purchase them, and have license to use them from Here.

Ok lets get started.
Open your template and delete the credits layer.
Now go to layers - add a new raster layer and flood fill with white, Then go to layers - arrange - Send to the bottom.
Copy and paste paper 9 just above the white background layer, Go to layers - New mask layer - From Image - Then in the pull down menu find your mask - Source Luminance. Invert mask data NOT ticked. Merge group. Resize 95%.

Ok now we are going to add papers to all the template layers, We do this by clicking on each layer and then going to Selections - Select all - Float - Defloat, copy and paste your paper then go to Selections - Invert - Hit the delete key and select none, And delete the original template layer.

Ok now add these papers to the following layers:
Raster 4 - Paper 3.
Raster 2 - Paper 1.
Raster 3 - Paper 5.
Copy of Raster 3 - Paper 5.
Raster 1 - Paper 2.
On the merged layer (the 2 circles), Go to Selections - Select all - Float - Defloat then Layer - New Raster layer and flood fill white - Select none. Delete the merged layer.

Ok now any other elements that you like.

Now I like to sharpen each layer except the mask and the sparkles layers so to do that just go to Adjust - Sharpness - Sharpen and do this to all the layers I find it makes the tag look much more clear.

Make sure you add dropshadow to all the layers as well, I always use 2, -2, 34, 3, Black.
