I've used the lovely PTU artwork of Elias Chatzoudis. You can purchase his art HERE.
This is a PTU kit called Take Me Home from Cora’s Creations (Pimp'd Designz). Visit her blog for links to her stores HERE.
The mask is WSL_Mask95, by Wee Scot Lass. You can get it HERE.
Font used is Black Boys on Mopeds.


Let’s Begin!


Open a new canvas 800x800 pixels.

Open the following elements from kit.
Copy and Paste them in the following order as a new layer on the canvas.
Resize and arrange them as shown.

Earth
Frame-05
Planet-02
Rocket
Swirl-01
Meteor (Image>Mirror)
Alien Ship
Doodle-01
Doodle-02
Doodle-03
Alien-01
String-01
Star-03 (Layer>Duplicate twice)
WA-01

Copy and Paste your tube on top.
Arrange it as shown in the tag.

Open paper pp03 from kit.
Copy and Paste it at the bottom of the tag.
Add your mask by going to Layer>Load/ Save Mask>Load Mask from Disk.
Apply the mask named WSL_Mask95.
Merge the mask group by right clicking the layer of the finished mask, go to Merge>Merge Group.
Resize and arrange it to fit in the center as shown.

I used the font Black Boys on Mopeds. Set it to a size you like and a stroke width of 4.
Foreground color to white and background color to black.
Duplicate the layer and select the second font layer with the font tool.
Set the stroke width to 0.
Merge the 2 font layer and convert to a raster layer.

Drop shadow everything except the mask.
Effects>3D Effects>Drop Shadow, set the drop to 3 vertical, 2 horizontal, 75 opacity, 4 blur.

Add your copyright info and your tag.

Merge everything in Layers>Merge>Merge Visible



All Finished!
