This tutorial was written by me on March 18, 2015.
Both the tag and the tutorial are purely my own work,
and any similarities to anyone else's creations are purely coincidental.
I use Photoshop Elements 12, which is NOT the most updated version, so you may have a quicker way to do things. I don't have any fancy plug-ins or flashy extras. My way of making this tag is certainly NOT the only way, nor is it the best. I only offer ONE way to create a tag.
Some knowledge of Photoshop (any version) is assumed and required for understanding this tutorial.
