***What you'll need***
Program of Choice.
I am using Photoshop CS5

But, if you know your tools you can use any program of choice

Tube of choice.
I am using the artwork of Elias Chatzoudis

You must purchase a license to use their tubes and can do so HERE

I purchased this tube while PTE was still open

I also used a sparkle element.  This is optional and you can find something similar to use if you’d like.
