Paste your tube on the left side on the top layer. Take your free hand tool, draw around the legs at the glitter frame and delete.

This was a no scrap tag, but feel free to add scrap elements if you like,
make the tag your own.

Crop your tag to be sure no stray shadows are on the edges of your tag.

Once happy with it all, close off any backgrounds, merge visible.
Resize first, then add your copyrights and name.
 

That's it
