I've used the lovely FTU tube by Irene Shpak. You can get it HERE. You still need a MPT license to use this tube. If you don’t have one, request one from customer service.
This is a PTU tagger kit called Rock Me by Cora’s Creations (Pimp'd Designz). Visit her blog for links ot her store HERE.
Font used is Toonish and Carpenter.
