Realization
Step 1
open a new transparent image  900 * 550 pixels
effects > plugins > Mehdi > Wavy Lab 1.1

adjust > blur > gaussian blur > 20
layers > duplicate
effects > Plugins > VM Instant Art > Tripolis

blen mode : Hard Light – opacity : 50%
effects > plugins > Graphic Plus > Emboss

effects > plugins > AFS IMPORT > sqborder 2

don’t change the blend mode and the opacity
layers > duplicate
effects > plugins > It@lian Editors effects > effetto Fantasma

adjust > sharpness > sharpen

Step 2
to obtain the same effects as mine, copy/paste as new layer « image 4 »
effects > plugins > Flaming Pear > Flexify 2
translator’s note : I obtained a slightly different effect,
probably because I use a different version of this plugin than Sybel

if you want to change the colors --> adjust > hue and saturation > colorize with your own colors
effects > plugins > FM Tile Tools > Blend Emboss

effects > 3D effects > drop shadow

drop shadow again changing (5) by (-5)

Step 3
layers > new raster layer
selections > select all
copy/paste into selection the fractal image « nr°39 »
edit > repeat « paste into selection »
selections > select none
adjust > hue and saturation > colorize
Sybel used these settings

effects > plugins > FM Tile Tools > Blend Emboss

your tag and your layers palette look like this

Step 4
copy / paste as new layer the misted image « image 4 »
move it to the left (see final result)
effects > pllugins > Xero > Improver > Landscape

layers > duplicate
image > mirror > mirror horizontal

Step 5
image > add borders > check « symmetric -->
2 pixels white
2 pixels color 2
2 pixels white
50 pixels color 1
select this large border with the magic wand tool
effects > plugins > Graphic Plus > Cross Shadow

effects > reflection effects > kaleidoscope

selections > invert
effects > 3D effects > drop shadow

edit > repeat « drop shadow »
selections > select none
image > add borders > 10 pixels color 3 and 1 pixel black

Step 6

resize if necessary

Step 7 – Animation (optional)
Sybel an I use UGA to create our animations
the animation we used was found on Simone’s site (link at the begining of this tutorial)
you will find many other animations if you want to choose another one

your tag is finished
Thank you to have realized it
